Feel well... and enjoy your one unique life
The Phil Parker Lightning Process™ is for M.E., chronic fatigue, post viral fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, anxiety, O.C.D, weight issues and the other many and varied physical and mental symptoms often associated with these conditions such as insomnia, depression, irritable bowel syndrome, fear and panic attacks and feeling overwhelmed.The Lightning Process is a life-changing training course spanning 3 days, which we teach in Bristol, Herefordshire, South Wales and in the lovely setting of Hawkwood College on the edge of Stroud in the Cotswolds.No matter how ill you are, even if you are bedbound, you can turn your life around. If you do the course and practise what you are taught, you will quickly experience huge changes and start to truly enjoy your life.Where does it come from?Why do some people with certain conditions have only temporary and variable improvements from interventions they try? What is it that is keeping them 'stuck' even with the aid of excellent therapists and a whole range of therapies that have been proven effective in other areas? The Lightning Process is the result of more than a decade of research, experimentation and exploration by Phil Parker and his colleagues to answer those questions. What is it?The Lightning Process is a training programme over 3 days (approximately 12 hours contact time plus "homework") where you will learn the techniques necessary to recognise and stop the negative physical and mental cycle starting. You will then practice these techniques in your daily life until you are well, happy and healthy. For some people it takes days and for others a number of weeks until all their symptoms are gone. It is most important to continue using the Lightning Process as instructed. Even when you are completely well you will find it useful to keep in practice, using the process for life's challenges. The Lightning Process is a powerful combination of techniques developed from osteopathy, self-hypnotherapy, NLP and life coaching. They work as a combination. Like a recipe, if you omit essential ingredients you will not get the desired results. What it isn't!It has no affiliation and isn't developed from C.B.T., Mickel or Reverse therapy. Some people think it sounds a bit like C.B.T. (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) because there are some similarities in terms of thought stopping, cognitive reappraisal and self-talk. However that is where the similarity stops. Neither is it positive thinking which is highly unlikely to do the job on its own. There is no pacing involved. The Lightning Process is fundamentally different. It is not a therapy. It teaches you how to overcome your own physical and mental issues in an incredibly short time using a range of techniques. Is it all in the mind?M.E./C.F.S./Fibromyalgia is a genuine physical illness. I should know - I had it! Painful limbs, inability to manage stairs, loss of stamina, lack of concentration, fuzzy vision, fuzzy thoughts, need to sleep many hours in the day ... etc. The Lightning Process recognises that the mind and body are not separate entities and powerfully affect each other on a biochemical level. If someone has suffered cardiac disease, aggravated by stress, and has been told by the consultant that they must change their lifestyle, lose weight and cut out drinking and smoking, no one would accuse the consultant of dismissing the very real physical illness as 'being all in the mind'. 'Pulling your socks up' or seeing a psychiatrist is unlikley to improve your cardiac disease. It is the same with M.E. The Lightning Process teaches you the tools to allow your body to recover from the physical symptoms. We believe it works by rebalancing the disturbances in your immune, endocrine and neurological systems. We know that it works. And it is more than that too. It can be used in a host of delightful life enhancing ways once you are well. So having learned it - it is a tool for life.
