This episode offers a radically compassionate and science-backed perspective on why pain persists - and how true healing begins by understanding the mind-body connection. In this powerful episode of The Art of Living Well Podcast®, hosts Marnie Dachis Marmet and Stephanie May Potter sit down with psychotherapist, author, and chronic pain expert Nicole Sachs to explore the neuroscience of pain, nervous system dysregulation, and emotional repression. Nicole shares her personal story of healing from debilitating spinal pain and explains why pain is not imagined, emotional, or "all in your head" - but rather a protective response from the brain. Through deep storytelling, real-life examples, and practical tools, this conversation introduces listeners to Nicole's signature practice, JournalSpeak, and offers a hopeful, empowering roadmap for anyone living with chronic pain, anxiety, or persistent health struggles. _______________________________________ What You'll Learn in This Episode: ● Why chronic pain is a protective response from the nervous system ● The difference between acute pain and chronic pain ● Why structural findings on MRIs don't always explain ongoing pain ● How the brain chooses where pain shows up in the body ● What the "emotional reservoir" is and how it overflows ● Why pain often moves locations when the root cause isn't addressed ● How stress, trauma, and perfectionism affect the nervous system ● How journalSpeak is a powerful tool for expressing and processing emotions. ● How meditation supports nervous system regulation ● Why curiosity, compassion, and patience are essential for healing _______________________________________ Noteworthy Quotes from the Episode: ● "Pain is a protective function of the human body." - Nicole Sachs ● "The pain is not emotional - it's the result of your nervous system responding to emotion." - Nicole Sachs ● "Your nervous system is on point. It's doing exactly what it was designed to do." - Nicole Sachs ● "Life is not a choice between what hurts and what doesn't. It's a choice between what hurts and what hurts worse." - Nicole Sachs ● "You are allowed to get curious." - Nicole Sachs ● "You have so much more power over your health than you realize." - Nicole Sachs _______________________________________ Episode Breakdown with Timestamps: 00:00 - Introducing Nicole Sachs and her approach to mind-body healing 05:12 - Discovering Dr. John Sarno and mind-body medicine 08:57 - Emotional stress and physical symptoms explained 17:06 - Structural findings vs root causes of pain 24:59 - Why lack of pain doesn't equal emotional balance 31:20 - Injuries, genetics, and the symptom imperative 37:33 - First steps for people feeling stuck in pain 40:21 - Learning, surrender, and recovery mindset 46:58 - JournalSpeak explained 59:05 - Healing results and long-term freedom from pain 01:07:59 - How to work with Nicole and free resources 01:09:55 - What the art of living well means to Nicole _______________________________________ Our Favorite Wellness Support: 📌Level up your performance & recovery 💪 Get your favorite Kion supplements here: 🔗 https://glnk.io/j6vy/theartofliving-well 📌Use code ARTOFLIVING for 15% OFF 🎉 Wake up better after you drink 🍻 Try ZBiotics here: 🔗 https://zbiotics.com/pages/am-aolw Use code AOLW for 15% OFF 🎉 _______________________________________ Special Offer from Nicole Sachs Access your free month of Heal with Nicole community: https://www.yourbreakawake.com/artoflivingwell _______________________________________ Join Our Minneapolis Hiking Collective: https://web.facebook.com/groups/1368978181038556/ _______________________________________ Stay Connected Beyond the Podcast Subscribe to our Substack for episode updates, wellness insights, and reflections from Marnie & Stephanie: https://theartoflivingwell.substack.com/ _____________________________________ Connect with Nicole Sachs Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicolesachslcsw/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thecureforchronicpain/ Website: https://www.eomega.org/workshops/teachers/nicole-sachs LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicole-sachs-791332366/ _____________________________________ Follow & Connect: Follow The Art of Living Well Podcast® Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theartofliving_well/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theartoflivingwellpodcast LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-art-of-living-well-podcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theartoflivingwel/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4gym3jOPdSHwrpM1BmxyJz Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-art-of-living-well-podcast/id1482050468 Connect with your Hosts here: https://www.theartoflivingwell.us/about-us

In this powerful conversation on The Art of Living Well Podcast®, hosts Marnie Dachis Marmet and Stephanie May Potter welcome back Dr. Stephen Cabral for a third time.

In this insightful episode of The Art of Living Well Podcast®, hosts Marnie Dachis Marmet and Stephanie May Potter sit down with dermatologist Dr. Mina to explore what it really means to age well. Dr. Mina shares how longevity-focused skincare is less about "anti-aging" and more about prevention, consistency, and supporting the body from the inside out. Together, they unpack common misconceptions around Botox, sunscreen, fillers, retinol, and hormonal skin changes while emphasizing why simplicity, trust, and long-term strategy matter most. Through honest conversation, clinical experience, and relatable examples, this episode empowers women to step off the "hot girl hamster wheel," make informed decisions, and feel confident in a skincare routine that supports both health and longevity.

In fact, you shouldn't." ● "If you did nothing else but protect your skin from the sun, you'd be years ahead." ● "Retinoids don't thin your skin - they actually build collagen." ● "Botox is one of the most studied medications we have and has decades of safety data." ● "Aging isn't something to fix. It's something to support."

Ready to reset your health? Kick off the new year with our 14-Day Vitality Reboot. After the holiday indulgence, this is your chance to reset, recharge, and feel your absolute best. Sign up here to start your journey! https://l.bttr.to/zNVOK If you've been feeling distracted, anxious, overstimulated, or constantly glued to your phone, you're not alone. In this episode, we unpack why our minds feel so overloaded and how small, intentional breaks from technology can restore calm, focus, and genuine connection. In this grounding conversation on The Art of Living Well Podcast®, hosts Marnie Dachis Marmet and Stephanie May Potter explore what it really means to live an analog life in a digital world. Inspired by a listener who shared a workbook on the topic, they dive into why we reach for our phones so often, how screen habits shape our mood and sleep, and what happens when we finally give ourselves permission to slow down. They share personal stories - from hiking with zero cell service to rediscovering handwritten letters and simple creative hobbies - that reveal how powerful it can be to step away from constant stimulation. You'll also hear how phone dependence is affecting people of all ages, including teens, adults, and even the elderly, and how daily mini-detox moments can help you feel more grounded, peaceful, and truly present. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why phone pickups, notifications, and endless scrolling silently raise anxiety and interrupts being present. How nostalgia, nature, and analog practices like hiking, cooking, puzzles, or letter writing offer screen free dopamine as well as stress relief. The deeper emotional impact of tech addiction on adults, teens, and especially the elderly. Simple ways to create tech-free zones, reduce nighttime screen habits, and protect your sleep. How hobbies and creativity can naturally fulfill the "dopamine hit" we look for in our phones. The power of mindful living, intentional slowness, and creating boundaries around digital use. Practical mini digital detox moments you can integrate daily - like waiting in line, walking with a friend, or winding down in the evening. Noteworthy Quotes from the Episode: "When we're always on our phones, it creates all this anxiety and stress and pings and distractions." "Disconnected time with people that I love is all I really want." "We've lost this human connection because we go to the phone instead of the person in front of us."
