Introduction

Welcome.

The purpose of this book is to guide you through the ‘first steps’ of the Lightning Process (LP) – a practical, intriguing and important training programme – to transform your health and wellbeing. I hope you find it inspiring, fascinating and life-changing.

This book delivers part one of your Lightning Process training for health. It covers a wide variety of topics designed to stimulate change and improve your health and wellbeing. These include the Lightning Process’ Core Concepts, relevant research into the body–brain–mind link and some thought-provoking exercises. These topics make it an essential read, I think, for anyone wishing to create effective change in their health, whatever route they take.

Once you’ve worked through the steps in this book, you will be ready to take the next part of the training and learn the practical tools of the Lightning Process to change your health in the three-day Lightning Process seminar.

Throughout this book, you’ll find the stories, told in their own words, of just a few of the many people who have used the Lightning Process and regained their health and happiness. I possibly should add that you may think, as some others have commented, that in telling their stories these people appear a little overexcited about the results they’ve achieved, and the Lightning Process. However, I simply ask you to consider this: if you had an illness which you’d battled for years, or been told was impossible to recover from, and then got your health back, how excited would you be, and how much would you wish to let others know about this new option? For now, however, let’s begin with the inspiring thoughts of one of the UK’s top pain consultants:

‘I have been very impressed with the results of the LP. I have seen the lives of some of my patients transformed by this self-empowering technique. Everyone who has battled with chronic illness and wants to win should have the opportunity to do the Lightning Process.’

YOU’RE IN EXACTLY THE RIGHT PLACE

The fact that you’ve bought this book and have started reading means you have a keen interest in discovering how lives can be changed for the better and have taken the first step, action.

You will probably be thinking one of the following things about making the changes you desire in your life, or if you are reading this to help someone else, in their life; you might think that achieving those goals will be:

Interestingly, however, you are currently thinking about the ‘ease’ or ‘difficulty’ of that change, and there are just two things you need to know:

  1. Because you’ve opened this book and started to read it, you must believe it’s somehow possible to make the changes you desire or you wouldn’t even have bothered getting this far.
  2. The Lightning Process and this book can teach you how to change, regardless of how ‘easy’ or ‘difficult’ you currently think that change is going to be.

So, allow yourself to recognize where you are, in terms of your hopefulness, as we continue what could be the most important journey of your life.

It’s only when we achieve the impossible that we realize we’ve been misinformed.
