Certified Energy Healer Explains Foundational Tenet: ‘Anything Can Cause Anything’

Certified energy healer Tim Spriggs often explains to his clients the concept of “anything can cause anything,” a guiding principle coined by Dr. Bradley Nelson, founder of the Emotion Code, the Body Code and the Belief Code.

“This concept plays a key role in how these modalities are applied in practice,” Spriggs said. “We believe that the creation of emotions comes from our organs. When emotions become trapped, they can lodge themselves anywhere in the body, with no discernible pattern. These trapped emotions may disrupt normal body function or distort perception, creating energetic blocks that vary widely from person to person.”

For instance, Spriggs explained, two individuals may share the same trapped emotion—such as grief or anxiety—but the way that emotion manifests in the body and influences well-being can be entirely different. That’s why, in energy healing, practitioners are trained to avoid personal bias and instead follow the guidance of the client’s subconscious mind, which reveals the root imbalances through muscle testing and other techniques.

“It is essential to clarify that practitioners of these healing systems are not medical doctors and do not offer diagnoses,” Spriggs added. “In fact, the philosophy behind this approach recognizes that traditional diagnoses may not fully capture the complexity of underlying energy imbalances. Take, for example, a common symptom like shoulder pain. While several people might report the same physical discomfort, the contributing imbalances and trapped emotions could be completely unique in each case.”

Spriggs offers a variety of in-person and virtual sessions that incorporate the Emotion Code, the Body Code and the Belief Code, as well as Reiki sessions to help identify and clear energetic disruptions and allow the body to restore its own balance.

“Remarkably, many clients also report unexpected improvements in other areas of their physical or emotional well-being,” Spriggs said. “This further supports the idea that, indeed, everything is connected and ‘anything can cause anything.’”
