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.

• 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

• "You can't think your way out of a nervous system problem."

• "Trauma lives in the body, not just the mind."

• "Healing happens when the body finally feels safe."

• "Splankna brings faith and authority into energy psychology."
