Creative work

  • Use Splankna tools to create new emotional and behavioral patterns once old ones are released
  • Creative Emotions and Creative Algorithms
  • Design homework so clients keep progressing between sessions and after Splankna work ends

Spiritual warfare in healing

  • The basic ranks of demonic entities, and when and how to deal with them
  • Generational issues: curses, agreements and cellular memory
  • Soul ties, curses and hexes, specific spirits, and spiritual authority

Splankna with DSM disorders
