Avoiding Your Pain is Blocking Your Healing 

In this episode of The Energy to Heal, Laura Milliken dives deep into the connection between emotions, healing, and spirituality. Our culture often teaches us to suppress feelings, but Laura reminds us that emotions are not the enemy—they are a compass that God has given us to lead us into deeper emotional intelligence, spiritual authority, and healing.

You'll learn how emotional awareness impacts not only your own mental health and relationship with the Holy Spirit, but also how it shapes your parenting and your ability to connect vulnerably with others. Laura also shares practical journaling prompts designed to help you steward your emotions with honesty and grace, allowing the Holy Spirit to guide you through them instead of avoiding them. 

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✅ Why emotions are vital for true healing and spiritual growth
✅ How emotional intelligence protects your mental health and strengthens spiritual warfare
✅ The importance of emotional vulnerability in parenting and relationships
✅ How Jesus modeled a full range of emotions—and why that's important for you
✅ Tools for being emotionally honest with God without shame
✅ How journaling can unlock hidden emotions and foster healing

Laura’s heart is to help you stop running from your emotions and instead see them as a sacred part of your human experience—your pathway to true emotional authority and connection with God.
