Hello my favorite people. How is everybody today? Happy podcast day. Happy Friday if you're listening to it as it drops.

This is Nicole and Blue Dog who is snoring shamelessly so if you pick that up it's not me making odd noises. It's the DOG.

He's a happy relaxed dude. What can you do? Anyway, hi everybody. Today I am bringing you a really cool interview.

My first interview with a fellow practitioner who is also doing this work in her private practice in New York City. Her name is Julie Markowitz.

She contacted me as many people do completely out of the blue for me meaning I did not know her. I didn't work with her.

She and I had never crossed paths but she wanted to come on the podcast and talk about her healing journey.

From many many symptoms, very many debilitating symptoms on the brink of suicide. She wanted to share what has worked for her and to help people understand how possible this is for themselves.

I am always on board for that kind of conversation. Today in a few minutes we will share that podcast interview I did with Julie which was really really awesome.

It was amazing information and I think it's going to help a lot of people. Julie also mentions in the interview that ironically she spent last weekend at the Omega Institute doing a retreat that she had signed up for.

I know it was around meditation of some sort. They do a lot of yoga and meditation stuff up there throughout the season.

She was just making me all excited. She was telling me how amazing it is up there. I remember of course because I have been there last summer and the summer before.

I hope that you guys out there are considering joining us. I think Julie is going to come as well to Omega. The group that we are cultivating is becoming so great.

If you have any questions, I get emails all the time with questions about what exactly Omega is. I am not going to bother answering that again right here.

Just in case people have heard other podcasts that I have given about Omega. If you have any questions, just write to me.

If you are thinking of coming yourself and you have a personal question about the retreat, which is a five day retreat July 21st through the 26th led completely by me and the people that I am bringing in to support my work.

At the Omega Institute in upstate New York, a Rhineback New York, some people are from upstate and saying it's not really upstate New York. It's only a couple hours from the city. So middle New York.

But in any case, if you have any questions, just write to me. The care for chronic pain at gmail.com.

Write to me. Ask me anything. Ask me personal things. I don't care. I will share with you. I will help you understand if you are a candidate to join us this summer.

And also just to let you know if you are suffering in chronic pain, Omega is amazing at helping people get around. They will bring a golf cart right to your door and bring you to the retreat, bring you to the meals, bring you to the evening programming.

Live music and different interesting programs that are offered there. So do not discount yourself if you're having trouble with mobility because they will help you. Just an amazing place.

So please hit me up if you're interested in questions about Omega. Please, if this podcast is helping you if you are enjoying it, if you join us every week, take 30 seconds and rate and review on iTunes.

I have many, many tens of thousands of listens every week and I only have 100 and something ratings and I'm like, God, everybody is like me.
