Disease and fatigue can creep up on you slowly, without you realising. Day by day, week by week, month by month. Until one day you realise how bad things had got with your mind and body while your eyes were firmly fixed on another goal – career, supporting others, achieving the one next thing that will definitely make you feel happy and fulfilled (except it doesn’t, at least not for long).
The same is true of burnout, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and any number of autoimmune diseases. A disturbing kaleidoscope of symptoms start making your life feel like it is not worth living. Enter, among others: insomnia, constant fatigue, mood swings, irritability, brain fog, paraesthesia.
Once you sit up and start paying attention you may well visit your GP, or a string of doctors. Your symptoms allude explanation, or even when given a label the only help offered is a life sentence of taking pharmaceutical drugs – just to keep you going. They might make your life bearable, liveable, manageable but you would rather make it worth living again.
To compliment our wonderful team of practitioners, we are delighted to welcome The Lightning Process to Oak Park Clinic. The Lightning Process is an evidence based programme, combining education and re-training. It is a very well established technique, supporting well over 25000 sufferers since the 1990’s. One of them is Lauren Stoney, a Health and Performance Coach.
Lauren’s life seemed like it was finished. She suffered so acutely with burnout – and what has been labelled as Hashimoto’s Disease – that she was bedbound and nearly gave up her career – and definitely gave up hope. Sadly, she is not alone. It is estimated that half of earth’s population will suffer burnout at some point in their lives.
Luckily for Lauren a good friend cajoled her into trying one more thing. Namely, the Lightning Process.
The Lightning Process® is a three-day neuro-physiological training programme that uses key principles of osteopathy, psychology, neuroplasticity and other approaches to teach you specific exercises that subsequently influence your physical health. The course itself spans three half days, during which, you are trained on:
• The psychology of neurology (how our thoughts influence our neurological health)
• Restoration of homeostasis (the regulation of conditions in the body i.e. temperature)
• How we can change the way in which our neurological pathways are activated
• What we need to do to turn our health around for the better
What is The Lightning Process?
You are then given a very specific self-coaching process that you can put into practice every time you experience symptoms or negative thoughts/feelings. This process is used to disrupt poor neurology, switch off what is known as the Sympathetic Nervous System response (more on that another time) and develop healthy neurological function in its place. The more that you put this into practice, the more this healthy neurological function becomes automated through the process of neuroplasticity.
Who is it for?
If you are suffering inexplicable, reoccurring symptoms and no one can put a finger on it, or you have been given a diagnosis, but it feels more like a sentence, if you are feeling that things are really bad and don’t know where to turn to – The Lightning Process may be your answer.
If you think it might help you, but you are feeling hesitant because you still don’t quite understand how the Lightning Process works or what it is, get in touch with Lauren, who will be delighted to discuss the programme and your needs.
