Did you know… chronic pain isn’t the real problem, but a protective signal from a nervous system that doesn’t feel safe? In this episode, I gently unpack why all pain is real yet often brain-generated, how stress and old programming keep the body stuck in protection mode, and why creating peace is the missing key to healing — watch to learn more about calming your nervous system so your body can shift from pain and fear into rest, repair, and true healing.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
⏰ 03:18 - Pain is there to protect us
⏰ 06:08 - Pain is not all in your head!
⏰ 09:00 - Create safety in your nervous system
⏰ 11:49 - Personalities of Protection
⏰ 14:35 - What is the missing piece of pain relief?
⏰ 15:44 - Join Pain to Peace Challenge
⏰ 23:36 - The ONE thing you can do to activate self-healing
You are invited to my upcoming Pain to Peace Challenge, where you’ll learn how to calm a stressed nervous system, understand the neuroscience of pain, feel sensations without fear, and shift out of fight-or-flight into real-time ease — whether you live with migraines, jaw pain, joint pain, arthritis, or chronic tension — watch to learn more about how a few focused days can help your body move from pain into peace.

Hi there! I am Jane Hogan, the Wellness Engineer, and the host of Wellness By Design. I spent 30 years designing foundations for buildings until the pain and inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis led me to hang up my hard hat and follow my heart. Now I blend my backgrounds in science and spirituality to teach people how to tap into the power of their mind, body and soul. I help them release pain naturally so they can become the best version of themselves.
Wellness By Design is a show dedicated to helping people achieve wellness not by reacting to the world around them but by intentionally designing a life based on what their own body needs. In this show we explore practices, methods and science that contribute to releasing pain and inflammation naturally.
