The Energy to Heal- Faith-based Inner Healing, Emotional Freedom, Spiritual Growth and Inner Transformation, Trauma-Informed Christian Therapy, Subconscious Reset

  Is Splankna New Age? In this episode, we respond directly to claims made by Melissa Dougherty and break down whether Splankna aligns with a biblical worldview or crosses into energy healing. If you've seen "Splankna Exposed" and felt confused, concerned, or curious—this conversation will give you clarity, context, and a grounded Christian perspective. This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, we respond directly to the claims made in a recent video by Melissa Dougherty titled "Splankna Exposed: Energy Healing Disguised as Christianity." This conversation is not about attacking—but about bringing clarity, discernment, and truth to a topic that many Christians are wrestling with. Is Splankna New Age? Is it rooted in unbiblical practices? Or is it a misunderstood approach to addressing the mind-body connection through a biblical lens? In this episode, Laura Milliken and Sarah Thiessen walk through the biggest concerns surrounding "energy," meridians, and body-based techniques. They unpack where these ideas originated, what modern science does and doesn't support, and how Christians can think critically without falling into fear or deception. Most importantly, they anchor the conversation in Scripture—clarifying that God is the source of life, and any regulation or breakthrough experienced through Splankna is not about manipulating an independent force, but stewarding the body as it was designed. This episode is for anyone who has felt confused, cautious, or even skeptical—and wants a grounded, biblically-aligned perspective. ✨ What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why "energy healing" language creates concern—and what's actually meant in context The origin of concepts like qi and meridians (and why they're debated) The difference between observed body responses vs. philosophical explanations Whether Splankna aligns with New Age practices or a Christian worldview How to approach body-based techniques with discernment instead of fear What Scripture says about the connection between thoughts, emotions, and the body 🌟 About the Host: Laura Milliken is the host of The Energy to Heal and a Master's Certified Splankna Practitioner.

In this episode, Laura Milliken sits down with Erica Pelzel, a Master's Certified Splankna Practitioner and one of Laura's personally recommended practitioners, to talk about what it really means to build a life you don't feel the need to escape from. Erica shares her story of hitting a point in life where everything felt heavy, overwhelming, and disconnected. Despite being told to "just take care of yourself," the idea of self-care felt frustrating and hollow—like surface-level solutions for something much deeper. Through her journey with Splankna, Erica began to uncover and resolve the deeper patterns that were keeping her stuck. Instead of trying to manage symptoms or escape her life temporarily, she experienced what it looked like to actually become free from the internal weight she was carrying. In this episode, they discuss: Why "self-care" can feel ineffective when the root issue isn't addressed The difference between escaping your life vs. transforming it How subconscious patterns can create a life that feels overwhelming or "dead" What it looks like to partner with the Lord in real, lasting change How true emotional freedom changes the way you show up in your everyday life If you've ever felt like your life looks fine on the outside but feels exhausting or disconnected on the inside, this conversation will resonate deeply. 🎟️ Want To Become a Practitioner?

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken sits down with Juanita Longanbach, a Master's Certified Splankna Practitioner and one of Laura's personally recommended practitioners, for a powerful and deeply personal conversation. Juanita shares one of the most impactful sessions she has ever experienced. During this session, the Lord brought her back to the day her mother passed away when she was a teenager—a day marked by shock, trauma, and a three-hour period she had completely blocked out of her memory. She recalls hiding under a table for hours while her family searched for her, with no conscious recollection of it until this session. This episode unpacks the concept of subconscious programs—specifically the kind that shut down grief in order to survive overwhelming pain. Juanita shares what it was like to finally access and process what had been hidden for years, and how the Lord gently revealed and resolved something she didn't even know was still affecting her. This conversation is a powerful example of how Splankna can uncover and address the unknown patterns running beneath the surface, bringing clarity, release, and emotional freedom. 🎟️ Want To Become a Practitioner?

  Episode Title: Letting Go: Why Attachment Is Draining Your Soul and Keeping Your Nervous System Stuck 🎟️ Training Discount Use promo code: PODCAST when you register for training to get a discount on your training cost. 📖 Episode Summary: This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based, nervous-system-focused modality that supports emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken explores one of the most life-changing and deeply biblical concepts available to the human nervous system and soul: letting go. Many people today are living in a constant state of internal gripping — gripping outcomes, gripping control, gripping emotions, gripping fear, and gripping the future. This attachment is not just exhausting emotionally; it keeps the nervous system locked in survival. In this episode, Laura breaks down what it means to allow thoughts and emotions to move through you instead of becoming stuck inside you. She explains how becoming an observer of your inner world — rather than being controlled by it — allows the nervous system to regulate and the soul to experience the rest that Christ promised. Drawing from Scripture, Laura reframes the idea of detachment in a biblical context, showing that releasing control is not weakness, passivity, or avoidance. It is trust. It is surrender. And it is the only way to experience the internal peace that comes from being anchored in Christ rather than circumstances. This episode is a direct invitation to stop carrying what you were never meant to carry. 🎧 In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why attachment to outcomes keeps your nervous system in a constant state of stress How emotions are designed to move through you, not become stuck inside you What it means to become an observer of your thoughts and emotional experiences The difference between feeling your emotions and being controlled by them How internal gripping creates anxiety, exhaustion, and emotional shutdown Why letting go is not passivity, but trust in Christ How Scripture supports releasing control and abiding instead of striving What it looks like practically to allow emotions to move without suppressing or obeying them How union with Christ creates internal safety even when circumstances feel uncertain Retreat Info: Contact Amber: [email protected] 🌱 How Splankna Supports Emotional Freedom Splankna is a faith-based, nervous-system-informed modality that works with how emotional experiences are stored in the body. Rather than relying on willpower or behavior change alone, Splankna focuses on helping the nervous system regulate, resolve stored emotional stress, and update emotional patterns so individuals can experience greater peace, regulation, and emotional freedom.

In this episode, Laura Milliken sits down with Leanne O'Neil, a former neurofeedback practitioner who made the bold decision to sell her practice and go all-in on Splankna after seeing deeper, faster, and more affordable results for emotional regulation and trauma support. Leanne shares her fascinating professional journey out of brain-based technology and into a Christ-centered, mind-body approach to emotional freedom. Together, Laura and Leanne explore why Splankna often reaches places that traditional brain training and neurofeedback cannot—especially when it comes to trauma, subconscious patterns, and forgiveness. This episode also takes a surprising turn into the growing scientific and academic interest in forgiveness and emotional regulation, highlighting how leading universities are now studying the role of forgiveness in mental health, stress reduction, and human flourishing. Leanne explains how forgiveness work fits naturally into Splankna sessions and why unresolved emotional pain can quietly keep people stuck—even when they are highly motivated to change. If you are curious about neurofeedback, trauma support, forgiveness research, or why someone would walk away from a successful clinical practice to follow Jesus into a completely different model of care—this episode will give you clarity, hope, and language to understand what Splankna actually offers.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken guides listeners through a short, gentle nervous system practice designed to build emotional safety and regulation in the body. This episode is not a teaching conversation. It is a guided experience. If you feel emotionally numb, overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or constantly "on," this practice is designed to help your nervous system step out of survival and into safety. Rather than forcing calm or positive thinking, this exercise focuses on breath, orientation, and gentle body awareness to help the nervous system recognize the present moment and begin restoring emotional access. This episode can be used daily, revisited when emotions feel overwhelming, or shared with someone who needs a simple place to start. It is especially helpful for those who do not yet have access to guided emotional healing work like Splankna but want to begin teaching their body that it is safe. >>>Thinking of getting certified?

This is not emotional catharsis. This is not mindset work. This is a nervous system safety practice. The goal is not to force emotion, but to help the body recognize that it is safe enough to feel again. Numbness, anxiety, and overwhelm do not resolve through effort. They resolve when the nervous system experiences safety. This episode is designed to help begin that process. ✨ How This Supports Emotional Regulation  The nervous system only releases survival states when it no longer senses threat. This practice works by gently shifting the body out of protection and into regulation through breath, awareness, and present-moment orientation. These small, repeated experiences of safety are the foundation that deeper emotional well-being is built upon. This episode can be used as a daily regulation practice, a reset during stressful moments, or a starting place for those exploring nervous-system-based healing. 🌱 How Splankna Supports Emotional Regulation Splankna is a faith-based, nervous-system-informed modality that works with how emotional experiences are stored in the body. Instead of forcing change through behavior or willpower, Splankna focuses on helping the nervous system regulate, resolve stored emotional stress, and update emotional memory so that survival patterns no longer run the system.

In this episode, Laura Milliken takes a deep dive into one of the most avoided and misunderstood emotional experiences shaping human behavior: powerlessness. Powerlessness is not a mindset. It is not weakness. It is a nervous system state that forms when something overwhelming happens and escape, protection, or help does not come. In this episode, Laura explores how powerlessness becomes the emotional imprint of being trapped—and how it quietly organizes adult life through control, anxiety, anger, people-pleasing, hyper-independence, and emotional shutdown. She unpacks why so many reactions people dislike about themselves are actually attempts to never feel powerless again. This conversation also addresses the difference between collapse and true surrender, why the nervous system resists this emotional state, and how life in Christ introduces an entirely different internal reality—one where connection, safety, and authority replace isolation and survival. This episode is for anyone who feels reactive, controlling, numb, anxious, or exhausted from trying to keep life from falling apart. 🎧 In This Episode, You'll Learn: What powerlessness looks like at a nervous system level How it forms when the body learns "I can't stop this" or "I'm on my own" Why powerlessness often sits underneath anxiety, control, anger, and shutdown How many adult behaviors are organized around avoiding this internal state Why this emotion feels so threatening to the body The difference between collapse and true surrender How unresolved emotional memory keeps the nervous system in survival What it looks like to live from a different internal reality in Christ How Splankna works with the nervous system to support emotional regulation and resolution ✨ Key Takeaways Powerlessness is not a personality trait. It is a learned nervous system state. You don't over-control, overthink, shut down, or people-please because you're broken. You do it because your nervous system adapted. Most "coping" strategies are really strategies to avoid feeling powerless. The danger is no longer the emotion — the danger was the situation it came from. Collapse is not surrender. Surrender carries safety and connection. What formed in isolation can change in the presence of safety and relationship. Your nervous system does not get the final word — Christ does. 🌱 How Splankna Supports Emotional Freedom Splankna is a faith-based, nervous-system-informed modality that works with how emotional experiences are stored in the body.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken addresses one of the most misunderstood and widespread issues in both Christian and clinical spaces: emotional numbness. Many people aren't anxious anymore. They aren't sad. They aren't joyful. They aren't deeply connected. They are simply… functioning. In this episode, Laura explains why emotional numbness is not spiritual maturity, personality, or "peace." It is a nervous system survival state that develops when emotion has felt unsafe for too long. She breaks down how numbness forms, why so many high-functioning Christians live in it without realizing it, and why you cannot think, pray, or discipline your way back into feeling. This conversation reframes numbness through both neuroscience and faith—showing how God designed the body to protect, and how that same design also allows the body to heal. Laura also walks listeners through a simple 5–10 minute at-home nervous system practice to begin restoring safety and emotional awareness when guided care like Splankna isn't immediately available. This episode is for anyone who loves God, loves their family, and yet feels disconnected, flat, or emotionally offline. 🎧 In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why emotional numbness is a physiological survival response, not a mindset or faith problem How chronic stress, emotional suppression, and long-term responsibility lead the nervous system to shut down Why many Christians feel "fine" but not fully alive How numbness affects marriage, parenting, intimacy, and spiritual connection Why insight, Bible study, and willpower alone cannot resolve nervous system shutdown What actually restores emotion: safety, regulation, and gentle nervous system healing How Splankna works with the body to remove what made emotions shut down 🌱 How Splankna Supports Emotional Healing Splankna is a faith-based, nervous-system-informed modality that works with how emotional memories are stored in the body. Instead of forcing emotion or reliving trauma, Splankna focuses on helping the nervous system regulate, resolve stored emotional stress, and update the body's emotional memory so that shutdown, triggers, and numbness no longer run the system.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken introduces the foundational concepts of energy psychology and explains why it has become such an effective approach for working with trauma. Laura breaks down how energy psychology works with the body's energy and nervous system rather than relying on insight or talk alone. She explains why trauma is stored somatically—in the body—and how healing must involve regulation and safety in order to be effective. The episode also addresses common misconceptions about energy psychology and clarifies how Splankna uniquely integrates faith, prayer, and spiritual authority into this work. This episode is ideal for listeners who want a science-informed, faith-centered explanation of why addressing the body is essential for emotional healing. ✨ Key Takeaways Energy psychology works with the body's energy systems, not just thoughts Trauma is stored in the body, not only in conscious memory The nervous system must feel safe and regulated for healing to occur You cannot think your way out of a nervous system problem Energy psychology techniques can be effective for anxiety, PTSD, and emotional stress Splankna is a Christ-centered expression of energy psychology Memory reconsolidation allows emotional memories to be updated without re-traumatization Healing is often faster when the body is addressed first Energy psychology complements traditional therapy rather than replacing it Safety and regulation are non-negotiable in trauma work 🔊 Sound Bites "You can't think your way out of a nervous system problem."

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken unpacks one of the most subtle but destructive belief systems in modern Christianity: the performance-based gospel. Laura explains how many believers unknowingly relate to God as employees instead of sons and daughters—striving, proving, and exhausting themselves in an attempt to earn intimacy that was already given. Through the lens of Splankna, identity work, and Scripture, she reveals how this mindset leads to emotional burnout, anxiety, shame, and spiritual disconnection. This episode invites listeners to confront false beliefs about grace, surrender self-sufficiency, and rediscover what it means to live from Christ instead of for Christ. Laura walks through how understanding your identity in Christ is foundational for emotional freedom, inner healing, and lasting transformation. If you've ever felt spiritually tired, pressured to "do more," or afraid you're not measuring up—this conversation is for you. ✨ Key Takeaways A performance-based gospel leads to spiritual burnout and emotional exhaustion Many Christians confuse spiritual disciplines with spiritual worth Grace is not permission—it is empowerment Emotional freedom begins with understanding your identity in Christ Your spiritual life was never meant to be fueled by effort, but by intimacy Surrendering to grace requires letting go of control and outcomes Sonship produces rest, confidence, and security—not anxiety Your identity in Christ is unchanging, even when your behavior fluctuates Living in grace exposes perfectionism and self-sufficiency The journey of learning grace is ongoing and deeply liberating 🔊 Memorable Sound Bites "Grace isn't permission. Grace is power." "Grace feels like sonship." "Jesus didn't save you to impress Him." 🌟 About the Host Laura Milliken is the host of The Energy to Heal and a Master's Certified Splankna Practitioner.

Angry people often need containment, clarity, and regulated tone. Passive-aggressive behavior is indirect communication rooted in fear and avoidance. Boundaries are not punishments—they are clarity. Emotional intelligence is the ability to name, feel, and respond to emotions instead of reacting from them. You don't have to match someone's emotional temperature to stay connected in a conversation. Staying calm does not mean becoming a doormat. Splankna can help uncover the subconscious agreements that fuel conflict patterns. 👤 About the Host Laura Milliken is the host of The Energy to Heal and a Master's Certified Splankna Practitioner.

In this episode, Laura Milliken unpacks the different kinds of subconscious agreements people make during moments of trauma, and how those agreements can deeply shape our emotions, identity, and spiritual health. She explores the six main types of agreements within the Splankna protocol—ownership, program, power, transfer, assault, and counter agreements—and explains how each one can block healing. Laura offers biblical insight into how to break these agreements, reclaim authority in Christ, and experience emotional and spiritual restoration. 💡 Key Takeaways: Understanding who we are in Christ helps us stay grounded during trauma. Trauma often leads to subconscious agreements that block healing. The enemy offers false solutions in moments of vulnerability. Breaking these agreements opens the door to deep emotional healing. Recognizing the type of agreement brings clarity and freedom. Spiritual warfare plays a vital role in trauma recovery. Ownership agreements can produce isolation and loneliness. Program agreements fuel recurring negative emotions or patterns. Power agreements create a false sense of control or self-protection. Transfer agreements can cause us to carry pain that isn't ours.   🌟 About the Host: Laura Milliken is the host of The Energy to Heal and a Master's Certified Splankna Practitioner.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, we're stepping back to talk about lifestyle Christianity—what it really means to be all in with Christ. Too often, we try to follow Jesus halfway, but halfway commitment brings halfway results. Scripture makes it clear: Jesus isn't lukewarm, He's all or nothing. Laura shares biblical truth, powerful analogies, and a personal story about trusting God with her son Milo's ankle health. You'll hear why believing in God isn't enough, why getting to heaven is just the beginning, and how living in Christ's upside-down kingdom changes everything. ✨ Takeaways: Partial surrender leads to partial transformation. Even the demons believe in God (James 2:19)—true discipleship is more than belief. Jesus calls us to daily surrender and all-in commitment (Luke 9:23). The kingdom of God flips worldly logic—true greatness, strength, and life are found in surrender. Being "all in" means trusting Christ fully in every area, even in the unknowns. 🌟 About the Host: Laura Milliken is the host of The Energy to Heal and a Master's level Splankna practitioner.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura shares the powerful origin story that brought her into the world of Splankna: her son Noah's miraculous breakthrough from debilitating separation anxiety.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this powerful and foundational episode, host Laura Milliken is joined by Sarah Thiessen, creator of the Splankna protocol, to walk through the theological backbone of this unique healing tool. They explore what makes Splankna distinctly Christian, how it aligns with Scripture, and why the tools it uses—like muscle testing and meridian points—do not contradict biblical truth. You'll hear how God designed the body to participate in healing and why Christians don't need to fear mind-body tools when they're surrendered to Christ. If you've ever wondered how Splankna differs from secular or New Age energy modalities, this episode will give you clarity and confidence.       🧠 Key Takeaways: Splankna was built with a biblical worldview at its core—not New Age theory.

Tools like muscle testing are neutral mechanisms, not spiritual gateways. The goal is healing through God's design, not human striving or mystical energy. Theology should inform our approach to healing—not fear or assumptions. Splankna teaches that the Holy Spirit leads the process, not the practitioner. 🔊 Sound Bites: "Splankna isn't trying to be energy healing. It's redeeming the tools for Kingdom use." "Scripture is the foundation, not the seasoning." "We trust that God made the body wise, not dangerous." "This is prayer ministry—directed by the Holy Spirit, grounded in truth."

In this episode, Laura Milliken is joined by Sarah Thiessen, founder of The Splankna Institute, to answer a question many Christians are asking: Is Splankna New Age? Sarah brings clarity, biblical grounding, and deep experience to this conversation, explaining how Splankna incorporates the tools of energy psychology within a framework that honors the authority of Scripture and the lordship of Jesus Christ. They explore spiritual boundaries, the importance of discerning the source of healing, and how to navigate the gray areas of inner healing without compromising faith. Whether you've had doubts about energy work or are simply curious about what sets Splankna apart, this episode is a powerful resource for separating truth from confusion. 🧠 Key Takeaways: Splankna is not New Age—it is a biblically faithful inner healing modality. The modality uses energy psychology techniques but is fully submitted to Christ. Prayer, Scripture, and the Holy Spirit are central to every Splankna session. The key question is not if spiritual power is present—but whose power it is. New Age philosophies place healing power in the self or the universe; Splankna places it in God. Christians can engage in mind-body healing without violating their faith. Spiritual discernment is vital in all inner healing modalities. Practitioners are trained to operate in both therapeutic skill and spiritual authority. Splankna has brought healing to thousands while staying rooted in biblical truth. 👤 About the Guest: Sarah J.

Episode Summary: This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken breaks down what Splankna actually is—from the science behind energy healing to the spiritual foundation that sets this protocol apart. Whether you're brand new to Splankna or still wrestling with some skepticism, Laura explains the mind-body connection, how trauma gets stored in the body, and why muscle testing and prayer are powerful tools in the healing journey. You'll walk away with a clearer understanding of how emotional trauma can be released through this holistic healing protocol and why the integration of neuroscience, prayer, and the subconscious mind makes Splankna so unique. 🧠 Key Takeaways: Splankna is a faith-based, biblically grounded mind-body protocol for emotional healing. Energy healing involves releasing stored emotional trauma from the body. Emotions aren't just mental—they show up as real, physical sensations. Trauma can lodge in the body and subconsciously impact behavior and choices. Muscle testing allows access to the subconscious mind, where deep healing begins. Techniques like NET (Neuro Emotional Technique) and EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) are part of the Splankna process. The double slit experiment reveals how observation impacts energy—supporting the mind-body-spirit model. Prayer and faith are not optional add-ons; they're central to healing. Skepticism is natural, but powerful healing often speaks for itself. Splankna bridges neuroscience, emotional healing, and spiritual authority. 🌟 About the Host: Laura Milliken is the host of The Energy to Heal and a Master's level Splankna practitioner.

There's mystery in healing, and that's part of what makes it sacred. Practitioners must balance confidence with surrender to the Holy Spirit.

📖 Episode Summary: This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken explores the concept of false identities—those deep-seated beliefs we form through trauma, hurtful words, and past experiences that keep us from walking in the truth of who we are in Christ. She discusses how these false identities take root, the role of neuroplasticity in reshaping our minds, and how spiritual and emotional healing begins when we intentionally renew our minds with God's truth. This episode is a powerful reminder that you are not your past—you are who God says you are. 🎙 Takeaways: False identities are formed by past experiences, trauma, and lies we've believed. These identities can keep us stuck in unhealthy patterns and emotions. Neuroplasticity means the brain can rewire itself with truth and intentional practice. You have a role in renewing your mind and rejecting old stories. Your identity in Christ is unshakable and rooted in grace, not performance. Healing begins by recognizing, renouncing, and replacing lies with God's Word.

In part two of Laura's conversation with Ryan, the topic shifts to biblical prophecy and the signs of the end times. They discuss the rapture, the seven years of tribulation, and the rise of the Antichrist. Ryan shares insights on the significance of Israel, the third temple, and the Abraham Accords, explaining how these elements fit into a biblical timeline. This powerful episode encourages believers to live with urgency, clarity, and peace as they understand their place in God's redemptive plan. 📝 Key Takeaways The Bible is 32% prophecy—understanding it helps prepare believers. The rapture could happen at any moment. The seven years of tribulation will be split into two distinct halves. Ten kings will manage the first half before the Antichrist takes power. The Antichrist will demand worship during the second half. The two witnesses will perform miracles for Israel. The third temple is key to prophetic fulfillment. The Abraham Accords may signal major political shifts. Prophecy helps believers walk in peace, not fear. Salvation comes through knowing Jesus—not religious effort.   🌟 About the Host Laura Milliken is the host of The Energy to Heal and a Master's level Splankna practitioner.

Thought Field Therapy was a pivotal moment in Sarah's journey. Faith and spiritual boundaries were non-negotiables in developing the Splankna protocol. The process of healing includes both the physical and the spiritual. Touch and intention are central to how energy healing works. God played a constant role in guiding Sarah's decisions and breakthroughs. Real-life client stories confirm that healing is not only possible—it's happening. Teaching and training others has become a key part of Sarah's mission.     🌟 About the Host Laura Milliken is the host of The Energy to Heal podcast.
