EP 7 // The Real Reason You Got Sick: A New Way to Understand Chronic Illness and Pain

from Retrain Your Brain | Nervous System Regulation, Chronic Illness Healing, Brain Retraining Support · host Katie Nickerson | Somatic Brain Retraining & Chronic Illness Coach

What really causes chronic illness? What if the true root of chronic illness isn’t what you’ve been told?  In this episode of the Retrain Your Brain podcast, I’m breaking down one of the most misunderstood topics in the chronic illness world: what actually causes illness to begin—and why it keeps going long after the original trigger is gone. We’ll explore how the brain and body become primed for illness, the role of the Cell Danger Response, and how neuroscience is reshaping the way we think about healing. If you’ve ever wondered how you got here (or how to get out), this episode will give you a powerful new lens to view your symptoms—and your recovery. Whether you’re just beginning your healing journey or have tried everything under the sun, this episode offers clarity, validation, and hope. 🎧 Press play for a deep dive you won’t hear anywhere else.
