Subject: Sciatica 😳 —what finally worked for me❣️

Hi Friend,

I used to get hit with sciatica a few times a year—and because I prefer not to go straight for painkillers, so I would midwife the pain out of me.


On at least four occasions, I stayed up all night rocking back and forth from Child’s Pose to Downward Dog to Lizard Pose—ALL. NIGHT. LONG. I read Louise Hay’s emotional root meanings, recited affirmations, and journaled my way through the pain and discomfort.

And you know what? It helped.

Once I found the emotional root, took Ashwagandha to calm my nervous system, and let my body reset, the pain would ease. Maybe a little niggle would linger, but it was at bay again.


BUT—there were two occasions where the pain was so intense that I took the painkillers just so my body could remember what relaxation felt like. If I could soothe my mind to meet that state, I could return to homeostasis. Sweet relief.


But then, last September, I was at the Meridian Yoga Therapy Level 2 training in Woodstock—and my body was leg, hip and lower back started screaming for help.

I brought my sciatic pain and restless leg syndrome to the class, and it became crystal clear:
👉 My Bladder Meridian was storing fear and shock in my body.

Since then, I’ve been consistently working with six key acupressure points, and now?

✅ Zero sciatica.
✅ Zero restless legs.
✅ My lower back is looser.
✅ My hips are more open.
✅ My entire body feels more at ease.

That feeling of ease? I do not take it for granted.
And that’s one of the reasons I created the Somatic Chill Pill.


💡 For me, sciatic pain isn’t random. It shows up when I’m worried about money, resisting self-worth upgrades, or stuck in a situation where I need to step up. And because my body knows this pain path, long-haul flights, long drives, or even just sitting too long used to trigger it.


But now? I have the protocol.

👉 Acupressure points. (There are 6 Bladder Meridian points in the Somatic Chill Pill)
