Summary Are your symptoms really coming from a “broken body”—or are they actually a brain habit? In this episode, Ali breaks down the science of neuroplastic symptoms (sometimes called TMS or mind-body symptoms) and explains why real, physical sensations like pain, fatigue, gut issues, and dizziness can persist even without structural damage. You'll learn how the brain's danger pathways work, why symptoms become a habit, and how fear and avoidance keep the cycle alive. Drawing on Alan Gordon's “false alarm” framework, Ali shares simple, practical ways to rewire your brain's response—so symptoms lose their power and your nervous system learns safety again. If you've been stuck in the endless cycle of symptoms, worry, and searching for answers, this episode will give you clarity, hope, and a roadmap for healing.   Takeaways Neuroplastic symptoms are real—but they're created by the brain's danger pathways, not by structural damage. Fear and attention fuel the cycle: every time you monitor or worry, the brain reinforces the symptom as “important.” Symptoms become a habit loop—just like a song stuck in your head, the brain gets good at producing them through repetition. Alan Gordon's false alarm analogy helps explain why symptoms are real but not dangerous—the alarm is sounding, but there's no fire. Healing is possible: by reducing fear, processing emotions, and re-engaging in life, you can rewire your brain and teach it safety.   Ali's Resources:  Calm the Chaos: Practical Tips and Tools for Stopping Anxiety in It's Tracks Course!

Addiction doesn't always look like rock bottom—and recovery doesn't have to mean all or nothing. In this episode, Lyndsay Soprano sits down with Katie Lain for a powerful conversation about alcohol, family patterns, and the complicated truth about what healing from addiction can actually look like.They dive into the neuroscience of alcohol use and the way it hijacks the brain's reward system, challenging the outdated narrative that addiction is simply a lack of willpower. Katie shares her personal experience and introduces the Sinclair Method, a treatment approach that uses naltrexone to gradually reduce alcohol cravings—without requiring total abstinence from day one.Lyndsay and Katie also talk about the emotional layers of drinking: early exposure, social pressure, generational trauma, and the quiet shame that keeps so many people stuck. This episode is about choice, compassion, and giving yourself permission to explore recovery in a way that feels honest and sustainable.Tune in if you've ever questioned your relationship with alcohol—or if you're ready to let go of the idea that healing only counts if it looks a certain way.Find Katie Lain Online Here:Website: thrivealcoholrecovery.comInstagram: @thrivealcoholrecoveryFacebook: Thrive Alcohol RecoveryLinkedIn: Katie LainYouTube: Thrive Alcohol RecoveryPodcast: Thrive Alcohol RecoveryFind The Pain Game Podcast Online Here:Website: thepaingamepodcast.comInstagram: @thepaingamepodcastFacebook: The Pain Game PodcastLinkedIn: Lyndsay SopranoYouTube: The Pain Game PodcastEpisode Highlights:(00:00) Introduction to Chronic Pain and Alcoholism(02:06) Personal Stories of Alcohol and Family Influence(06:12) Understanding Alcohol Addiction and the Brain(10:16) The Sinclair Method Explained(15:17) The Journey to Recovery and Finding Freedom(20:08) The Challenges of Alcohol Consumption and Social Norms(24:42) Advocacy and Awareness for the Sinclair Method(28:39) Low Dose Naltrexone and Pain Management

In this episode, I explore Norman Rush's Mating, focusing on the chapter “Guilty Repose” and the section “Weep for Me.” Through the narrator's encounter with the waterfall, I unpack themes of noise, solitude, mediocrity, and companionship — connecting her revelations to my own experiences with silence, striving, and the human need for connection.Discussion Highlights:How “the roar penetrates you” mirrors our craving for sensory overwhelm — music, crowds, even chaos — to quiet the mind's constant chatter.The painful beauty of solitude eroding, and what it means to reconnect with ourselves after long avoidance.The “Weep for Me” moment as an honest confrontation with buried sadness, surfacing only when the world finally goes quiet.The narrator's fear of mediocrity and how society equates “average” with “unacceptable,” fueling endless striving.The final revelation — “If you had a companion you would stay where you are” — as a call to seek steadiness, humility, and shared presence over transcendence.

In this episode, Cathy Sykora sits down with Dr. James Stoxen to explore his revolutionary approach to reversing severe chronic pain without surgery or drugs. Dr. Stoxen shares stories from his work with entertainers and elite athletes, explaining how his Integrated Spring‑Mass Model and Human Spring Approach challenge conventional models of biomechanics and pain. He details how inflammation mapping, targeted soft‑tissue treatments, and vibration therapies like Vibeassage can rapidly move inflammation and restore function. You'll also hear how his methods differ from standard physical therapy, the role of gravity and gait in chronic pain, and his bold efforts to demonstrate clinical efficacy through research. In this episode, you'll discover: How Dr. Stoxen's “human spring” model reframes the body as a system that recycles impact energy rather than a series of levers Why he believes most chronic pain arises from disrupted spring mechanics and unresolved inflammation What inflammation mapping is and how it guides targeted treatment The design, mechanism, and purpose behind his Vibeassage device How he treats severe chronic cases in days rather than weeks or months Stories of entertainment clients (e.g. the Wiggles' Anthony Field) and their dramatic recoveries His perspective on insurance, research, and barriers to mainstream acceptance Memorable Quotes: “The body is not merely a system of levers but a living spring structure engineered to recycle impact forces into energy.” “Step one is to map out the inflammation, move all the inflammation out of the tissue … until when you press on those muscles, I don't feel a thing.” “We're actually reversing severe chronic pain cases … in less than five days on one area.” Bio: Dr. James Stoxen is a world-renowned sports chiropractor, anti‑aging physician, and biomechanics pioneer, celebrated for his unique ability to reverse severe chronic pain cases in just days without surgery. His work has earned him the nickname “The Pain Exorcist” by celebrity entertainers. He is the developer of the Integrated Spring‑Mass Model and creator of the Human Spring Approach—systems for restoring near‑perfect mechanical function of the human body. He is the #1 international bestselling author of The Human Spring Approach to Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and the inventor of Vibeassage, a biomimetic vibration therapy device. He has treated over 1,000 national and world champions and more than 1,000 top entertainers, and he speaks internationally on radical non‑surgical pain elimination.

Your fascia — that connective tissue wrapping every muscle, nerve, and organ — doesn't just hold the body together, it also holds memory, tension, and unprocessed trauma. In this episode, Jess shares how years of disconnection and burnout eventually led her to discover fascia as both a map and a doorway back to health. Through breath, movement, and intentional release, fascia can unlock stored emotions, rebalance the nervous system, and help us feel safe in our own skin again. This conversation is about reclaiming your body at its most fundamental level — and why healing the fascia is the key to healing everything else. What You'll Learn in This Episode: 00:00 – Introduction and Jess's journey into burnout and breakdown 03:00 – Why fascia is the body's hidden “quantum interface” and emotional storage system 07:00 – How modern life overloads our fascia through EMFs, stress, poor food, and lack of stillness 10:00 – The science proving fascia is our largest sensory organ — with 6–10x more sensory input than muscle 13:00 – How trauma embeds in tissue and why fascia holds onto blockages until emotional truth is acknowledged 16:00 – Fascia as the body's scaffolding: why blockages cause pain in places far away from the original injury 20:00 – The parallels between fascia and ancient healing systems: meridians, energy flow, and indigenous wisdom 26:00 – Fascia as the communication superhighway for energy, emotion, and intuition 31:00 – Why treating fascia as a delicacy (not with force) leads to lasting results 33:00 – Fascia and chronic pain: the missing link in fibromyalgia and autoimmune conditions 40:00 – Owning our healing: how mindset and self-responsibility unlock recovery 45:00 – Dr. Jess's self-help fascia release methods: the 3-3-3 rhythm and pull-pulse-push techniques 50:00 – Tools, technology, and how fascia work unlocks the lymphatic, circulatory, and immune systems 59:00 – The Fascia Blueprint: why this work is set to transform the entire wellbeing industry   Thank You to Our Sponsors: Manna Vitality: Go to mannavitality.com/ or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your order.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty speaks with Dr. Evette Rose, internationally renowned trauma expert and best-selling author of Solving Pain Without Pills. The discussion challenges common assumptions about chronic pain, showing how unresolved emotions, learned pain responses, and suppressed anger can keep pain cycles active even after the original injury has healed. You'll hear practical ways to build safety in the nervous system, reframe anger, and reconnect with the body so real healing can begin. About the Guest  : Dr. Evette Rose is a trauma expert, international speaker, and best-selling author of Solving Pain Without Pills and Metaphysical Anatomy. She helps people address the emotional and subconscious roots of physical symptoms and chronic pain by rebuilding safety, compassion, and healthy boundaries in the body. Key Takeaways:   Pain can function as a stored memory of unresolved emotions, not only a sign of injury. Suppressed anger often sits behind chronic pain, especially where boundaries and safety were compromised. Pain becomes learned and reinforced by fear, posture, and context; breaking the loop requires new associations. Address core wounds of helplessness, powerlessness, injustice, lack of safety, and loss of control. The body releases pain more readily when it feels safe; regulate the nervous system before deep work. Meditation and standard therapy can manage symptoms, but resolution needs compassionate reconnection with the body. Changing your relationship with anger and fear reduces pain intensity and recurrence. Treat pain as communication, not malfunction; decode and address the message to regain freedom.

 In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks to Mike who emphasized the importance of accurate pain assessment and the potential impact of psychological factors like placebo effect. Tony's injury from swimming surprisingly reduced his chronic pain, suggesting a link between acute and chronic pain management. Mike suggested alternative pain-inducing activities to potentially aid healing. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/mike-sententia2         Highlights from today's episode include: Mike and the importance of honest feedback from clients—encouraging them to report truthfully even when a technique doesn't work, as this helps practitioners refine and improve their healing methods. Mike explains the shift from using the term “suppress” to “neutralize” or “cancel out” energy signatures, to better describe his pain reduction technique and avoid negative connotations. Manon explains the need for thorough, transparent assessment and follow-up of pain intensity and frequency, so practitioners and clients have accurate benchmarks to measure healing progress.   ABOUT MIKE SENTENTIA: I'm Mike. After studying and practicing energy healing 20+ years, I've developed a unique system of energy healing, specifically designed for chronic pain conditions. I'm truly so grateful for every client who's placed their faith in me and who I've been able to help get back to doing what they love most over the past two decades. They're the reason I do this work! In addition to being an energy healer for chronic pain, I'm also a science geek and love reading research. My books cover holistic care techniques that actually work, and the evidence behind them. Core purpose/passion: The mission of Healing Lab is to see Energy Healing integrated into mainstream medical practice and to see it covered by insurance in the same way that acupuncture is becoming. We know there is modern science behind energy healing even if we don't fully understand all the mechanisms yet.

Chronic pain is one of medicine's oldest puzzles and most stubborn problems. About one in five people worldwide live with it, and don't really know why. Dr. Sanjay Gupta says it doesn't have to be that way. A neurosurgeon, CNN's Chief Medical Correspondent, and host of the podcast Chasing Life, Gupta turns his attention to pain why we experience it, what really helps, and how people can take back control. His new book is called It Doesn't Have to Hurt: Your Smart Guide to a Pain-Free Life.

Chronic pain, particularly in the context of rheumatic diseases, represents one of the most pervasive global health challenges, affecting over one-quarter of the world's population. In recent decades, the influence of gender on pain perception and management has emerged as a significant focus of both scientific inquiry and clinical practice. Epidemiological data consistently demonstrate that women are disproportionately affected by chronic pain syndromes, including musculoskeletal pain. Compared to men, women tend to exhibit a lower pain threshold and heightened pain sensitivity. These differences are not only quantitative but also qualitative, with phenomena such as allodynia and secondary hyperalgesia appearing more pronounced in female patients. Moreover, psychosocial factors, such as individual pain history and levels of anxiety, may further modulate pain experiences in women. These observations align with the biopsychosocial model of pain, which posits that biological, psychological, and social dimensions collectively shape the pain experience

Gloria T. Han, Ph.D., and Anna C. Wilson, Ph.D., help parents understand why chronic pain is more common in autistic youth with and without ADHD, how pain presents in unique ways, the impact on daily life, strategies to reduce pain's impact, and more.

Is chronic pain really “in the body”… or in the brain's predictions about the body?Today on the Crackin' Backs Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Jorge Esteves, PhD, DO—an osteopath, educator, and researcher whose work reframes low back pain, sciatica, and other MSK issues through the lens of predictive processing, active inference, and interoception. Dr. Esteves explains why pain is more than a physical signal: it's shaped by mood, memory, context, and environment—and how the right mix of smart touch, simple movement, precise language, and meaning can rewrite faulty predictions and dial down threat in the nervous system.We explore what he calls “smart touch”—the affective, well-timed, well-paced contact that improves therapeutic alliance, entrains breath and rhythm, and helps the brain feel safe enough to update its story about the spine. We also unpack fresh imaging work suggesting hands-on care can influence connectivity in pain and interoceptive hubs, including the insula—right where body-signal meaning is made. You'll leave with a 5-minute daily recalibration (breath cue + one gentle movement + one self-touch drill) to keep predictions aligned with reality—especially during a flare.What You'll LearnPain ≠ damage: Why back pain often persists due to over-protective predictions and how to nudge them toward safety.Smart touch, real change: How affective touch, pacing, and breath cues shift interoceptive processing and calm threat.Therapeutic alliance matters: The first 10 minutes that build trust—and the phrases clinicians should avoid because they raise threat.Brains on hands-on care: New imaging insights on how manual therapy may modulate brain connectivity in chronic low back pain.Learn More / Contact Dr. EstevesOfficial site: Prof Jorge EstevesGoogle Scholar (Atlântica University, Portugal): Google ScholarResearchGate: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Jorge-Esteves-3 ResearchGate(En)active Inference paper (open-access): FrontiersEmail (from CV): osteojorge@gmail.com Pro OsteoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-jorge-esteves-27371522/ Pro OsteoTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/JEsteves_osteo Pro OsteoWe are two sports chiropractors, seeking knowledge from some of the best resources in the world of health.

People can be our biggest tiggers. Opposing views and perspectives on issues that are dear to us feel dangerous. Symptoms flare when we repress our feelings to keep the peace. But the alternative—conflict—feels unsafe too. How do we walk that tightrope, honoring our need for authenticity and belonging? Differing ideas & opinions are everywhere — family, friends, online. We have two default options: Repress/avoid → peace outside, conflict inside → symptoms. Explode/confront → release inside, rupture outside → unsafe. The “tightrope”: How do we balance our need for both authenticity and belonging? Let's discuss it all! XO n. FOR SEPTEMBER ONLY! All courses and recordings on the site are 25% off!

In this episode, Brandy works with a wonderful volunteer named Carla, whose chronic pain has been a constant struggle and has been holding her back from the very things she wants to do. As the session unfolds, Carla begins to see how her body has been reflecting deeper emotional patterns. What's beautiful is that as she makes these changes to heal herself, she realizes it will hugely uplevel her life. In fact, she even begins to refer to it as Carla 3.0—or even Carla 5.0—because it feels like stepping into the next level of who she's meant to be. With Brandy's guidance, Carla experiences a powerful breakthrough, moving toward a freer, lighter, and more empowered version of herself. This episode is a reminder that: Chronic pain often carries hidden messages about emotional patterns. The tricky part with healing is that emotions can be very illogical. Real transformation happens when we choose to change those patterns. Healing yourself truly is the pathway to changing your life. Carla's journey shows how releasing hidden patterns can transform not only the body, but also the way we live, love, and experience life.   IMPORTANT NOTE: We understand that some may believe mind-body healing is impossible. Therefore, if you would like to see images of individuals using their minds to relieve pain, you can check out this medical journal. It includes images from some of Brandy's case studies. If you want to learn how to use your mind to heal yourself, you can check out the training on Brandy's website. Each week, Brandy publishes a volunteer episode where she coaches a volunteer to heal themselves using their own mind. In addition, Brandy shares a quick IQ episode (Insights and Questions) where she answers listener questions or delves deeper into insights on working with the mind for healing.

What happens when life delivers not one, but two devastating blows that leave you bedridden and questioning everything you thought you knew about God's goodness? Today's guest, Darci Steiner, knows this journey intimately. An author, inspirational speaker, and nutritionist, Darci faced her first major disability in 2001 after a life-threatening fall down the stairs that left her unable to walk or care for her young children. Just as she rebuilt her life—earning her Master's degree in Holistic Nutrition while bedridden and eventually experiencing complete healing—a second injury in 2018 brought her back to square one. But rather than break her, these twin trials became the foundation for profound spiritual growth and her award-winning book, "Beauty Beyond the Thorns: Discovering Gifts in Suffering." In today's conversation, Darci shares how she learned to differentiate between treating God like a genie in a bottle versus developing genuine trust, the practical steps that built her resilience five minutes at a time, and why she believes suffering can be a treasure hunt that draws us closer to God's heart. Her story is a masterclass in turning pain outward and finding purpose beyond our circumstances.Beauty Beyond the Thorns: Discovering Gifts in SufferingAmazon.comhttps://www.amazon.com › Beauty-Beyond-Thorns-Dis...Email Darci for speaking engagements: darci@darcijsteiner.comhttps://www.darcijsteiner.comDue to a video issue, only Mark's audio is available in this episode.Thanks for joining us for this podcast!

Did you know that by the time you reach midlife, your nervous system has been storing trauma responses for decades - even if you can't identify a single "traumatic" event? What if the chronic back pain, autoimmune issues, and stubborn weight gain plaguing so many midlife women aren't just random health problems, but your nervous system's way of expressing stored survival responses from years past? In this insightful conversation, Dr. Aimie Apigian reveals how seemingly normal childhood experiences - from crying yourself to sleep as a baby in the 1970s to being a latchkey kid - can create lasting biological changes that show up as health issues decades later through stored trauma in your nervous system. We dive into the science behind trauma, its long-term biological effects, and the importance of addressing trauma at different levels – mind, body, and biology and how accumulative, often unrecognized trauma can impact our health, aging, emotional regulation, and relationships.  Discover why your nervous system might still be stuck in survival mode, keeping you vulnerable to injuries, illnesses, and that constant underlying anxiety. Dr. Aimie explains the science behind why some people seem immune to health issues while others collect diagnoses, and most importantly, what nervous system healing can actually do about stored trauma.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Dr. Aimie Apigian:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/draimie   Website ➜  https://biologyoftrauma.com/  Thank you to our show sponsors!

Dr. Aimie Apigian, author of “The Biology of Trauma: How the Body Holds Fear, Pain, and Overwhelm, and How to Heal It,” details how unaddressed trauma is often the hidden cause of many preventable illnesses and is linked to eight of the ten leading causes of death. The conversation delves into the physiological responses to trauma, the mechanisms by which trauma can manifest in chronic physical ailments, and the importance of incorporating a holistic approach that includes addressing mental, somatic, and biological impacts of trauma. Dr. Apigian also shares insights from her personal journey and professional evolution, emphasizing the need for a combination of medical treatment and trauma work for optimal health.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Aimie Apigian, author of “The Biology of Trauma: How the Body Holds Fear, Pain, and Overwhelm, and How to Heal It.”

There's a reason the stress never really leaves your body, because most of us never actually face it. In this episode, Lyndsay Soprano sits down with Amy Vincze for a deeply honest conversation about the emotional roots of chronic pain, the weight of unspoken trauma, and how tapping can help you finally release what you've been holding onto for way too long.Amy shares how tapping therapy (EFT) became a lifeline for her and her clients—a practice that goes beyond surface-level stress relief and helps regulate the nervous system, lower cortisol, and make space for emotional truth. Together, they dive into the connection between emotional overwhelm and physical pain, the fear of slowing down, and the way we've been taught to normalize struggle instead of heal from it.This conversation also touches on the chakra system as a map for both emotional and physical symptoms, and why addressing foundational fears is crucial for lasting change. Healing, they remind us, isn't always pretty, but it's worth it. And it often starts with giving yourself permission to feel what you've been avoiding.Tune in if you're ready to stop pushing through and start listening to what your body's been trying to say all along.Find Amy Vincze Online Here:Website: soarwithtapping.comInstagram: @soarwithtappingLinkedIn: Amy VinczeTikTok: @soarwithtappingYouTube: Soar With TappingFind The Pain Game Podcast Online Here:Website: thepaingamepodcast.comInstagram: @thepaingamepodcastFacebook: The Pain Game PodcastLinkedIn: Lyndsay SopranoYouTube: The Pain Game PodcastEpisode Highlights:(00:00) Introduction to Chronic Pain and Trauma(02:10) Exploring Tapping and Emotional Freedom Techniques(09:46) Understanding Chakras and Their Role in Healing(17:47) Navigating Trauma and Foundational Fears(22:39) Guided Tapping Session for Stress Relief(39:54) Conclusion and Resources for Healing

The statistics are shocking. At any given time, nearly one fourth of American adults are experiencing low back pain. Even worse, roughly one-third of the population will have to deal with chronic pain at some point in their lives. How does the brain react to pain? What can people with chronic pain do to alleviate […]

What if the chronic pain that's been ruling your life isn't actually about physical damage—but about your brain trying to protect you from threats it perceives based on your entire life history? Ashleigh Di Lello should be dead. At 13, doctors told her she wouldn't survive her teenage years after a mysterious viral infection began shutting down her organs. Twenty years later, after building a successful Broadway career, a failed hip surgery left her unable to walk and in excruciating pain that no treatment could touch…not even powerful opioids. After trying over 200 treatments and being told by specialists it was "downhill from here," Ashleigh made a decision that would revolutionize how we understand chronic pain. In this episode, we dive deep into a topic that's been both personal and transformative for me: the connection between pain and the brain. For years, I believed that pain was only the result of real, physical injuries. But after my own journey through back surgery and chronic pain, I started to question: what if our brains play a bigger role in how we experience pain than we realize? Discover why Type A personalities are more prone to chronic pain, how your brain actually gets BETTER at creating pain the more you experience it, and why doing everything "right" for your body might not be enough if your nervous system is stuck in survival mode. Ashleigh reveals the critical difference between regulating your nervous system (managing symptoms) versus rewiring it (changing how your brain processes pain entirely), and shares the exact paradigm shift that allowed her to walk again after five years of disability. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, unexplained symptoms, or simply curious about the incredible power of the brain-body connection, this episode will fundamentally change how you think about healing.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Ashleigh Di Lello:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/ashleighdilello  Website ➜  https://www.ashleydilello.com  Thank you to our show sponsors!

You may feel pain in the body, but it really begins in the brain. To explain, Dr. Sanjay Gupta sits down at 92nd Street Y in New York to talk about his new book “It Doesn't Have to Hurt” with his friend and ultra-marathoner Rich Roll. They also discuss how our brains can create pain proactively and protectively. Plus, how memories might have something to do with your chronic pain – and how to move through, with, and past those painful reminders.    Our show was produced by Jennifer Lai, with assistance from Sofia Sanchez.   Medical Writer: Andrea Kane Showrunner: Amanda Sealy Senior Producer: Dan Bloom Technical Director: Dan Dzula  Learn more about your ad choices.
