Summary

When I first met Gigi Cockell last year, I had no idea how impactful she would be on my life. I thought she would be yet another precious success story that I could highlight here on the pod, but she quickly became much more. Gigi has her Master's in Biology (she did her studies at Oxford and it shows) and is one of the best out there is explaining the brain science behind TMS. Soon Gigi was teaching beside Lisa and me at The Omega Institute (she'll be back this coming summer June 23-28!) and joining TCFCP Team as our in-house scientific expert.

On April 28th from 10am-12pm PST Gigi and I will be co-hosting a TMS Brain Science Deep Dive live on Zoom, and in preparation for it I am replaying her original success story today! Gigi is SO articulate and intelligent, and her words will both educate and inspire you. Join us XO n.

Welcome to the Cure for Chronic Pain Podcast with me, Nicole Sachs. You are here.

0:12.0

Hello my loves, how are you today?

0:16.0

This is Nicole, and you have reached my podcast, The Cure for Chronic Pain,

0:20.0

with me, Nicole Sachs.

0:21.0

Welcome to it.

0:22.0

Very excited to be here with you today. So I have

0:27.4

been thinking a lot lately about belief. And I really want to do a whole podcast episode that dives into the

0:36.6

concept of belief because it's such a misunderstood word. I've probably talked

0:42.1

about it plenty of times before but I want to really focus in on it.

0:47.0

The reason I think it's a misunderstood word or maybe just a not a word that's not examined

0:51.9

deeply enough is that our perception is our reality.

0:57.4

The only way the nervous system has any idea whether or not to protect you is from your conscious and unconscious input.

1:05.8

What is it getting? What is it getting from you? And so when we believe

1:11.4

something to be true and we place power in that belief, when that belief either leads us to look at life through the lens of love or through the lens of fear, it determines a tremendous difference in our outcomes.

1:30.0

And so I really, really want to talk more about that.

1:32.4

And the reason I'm talking at least a little bit about that right now

1:36.4

is because lately I've been thinking about the three legs of the stool,

of my three facets of my work, believe do the work in patience and kindness for

1:45.1

yourself and you know do the work which you'll be focused on a lot here on this

1:49.5

podcast which is a journal speak and meditation practice is key. It's key because it is the best vehicle I have found in my many many years of practice and working with others to lower the emotional reservoir and stop the nervous system from being triggered into fight or flight.

2:06.0

Having said that, belief is so important that leg of the stool needs to be robust because until you believe that you are actually okay

that you really, really don't need to run to the next doctor or specialist or procedure or treatment or supplement.
