Forgetting What Lies Behind:Inner Healing

Throughout the Old and New Testaments of the Scripture, there are references to the “inner man” and the “secret places.” There are instances where these secret places hold life wounds because of traumatic experiences – no matter how seemingly mild or intense they are.

For example, if a person fell off a bunk bed when he was a child, he might harbor painful memories or feel extreme negative emotions, including fear, helplessness, or shame. This experience is then catalogued by the subconscious mind, making fear or anxiety an automatic emotional reaction when he sees heights.

The previous case is trivial compared to other examples of traumatic experiences, such as life-threatening events, feeling rejected, being hurt by other people, and suffering from a form of abuse.
The emotional wounds or trauma, especially if left unaddressed, can affect how people live as they grow older. They don’t only trigger anxiety or depression, it can also result in devastating habits, behaviors, or lifestyle choices.

Over the past couple decades, the body of Christ has initiated far-reaching inner healing movements to help people overcome psychological traumas. There are different models being employed, but the basic structure of these procedures involves resolving those old emotional memories through prayer, forgiveness, or making use of the mind-body connection.

It trains Christian counselors and non-professionals in an inner healing protocol derived from the acupuncture treatment method and prayer. Visit this website to find out more about Splankna.
