At the end of 2009, I started feeling really exhausted and started getting pains all over my body – in my arms, in my buttocks, mainly in my back, everywhere! My tendons were so sensitive to touch. I felt a lot more sluggish than usual but 2009 had been a very tough year for me, working in a sales role in the recession is never ideal.
As the year went on, the pain got worse to the point that every move I made became more painful. I could hardly walk at one point from the pain. I couldn’t go out as I was far too tired, going to work was a struggle in itself but I still went every day without fail.
Thinking it was sciatica, I went to the doctor for tests, and after an MRI scan, nerve tests, numerous blood tests I was finally referred to a rheumatologist who finally diagnosed me, after 4 months of tests, with Fibromyalgia. The Rheumatologist could tell me what not to do, but he couldn’t tell me what i should be doing. He just told me that I could manage my symptoms. He gave me a leaflet and sent me away.
I don’t ‘do’ ill. I’m a bubbly and outgoing person and I wasn’t having any of it! So i ordered books on what to eat and what not to eat, what to do and what not to do, and soon I was feeling a lot better. I kept a diary to track my progress. I started to slowly feel better but nowhere near my ‘usual self’.
As i don’t like taking tablets, as such, I went to my homeopath and she really started to help. On our first session she mentioned doing the ‘lightning process’ but the way i understood it at that time was that it might involve brain washing, so decided against it. That was 4 weeks after the initial diagnosis.
I started taking new naturals tablets for the nervous system and instantly felt better. I gave up alcohol and that also helped.
On my third visit to the homeopath, I was already feeling better, and when she mentioned the LP again, i listened hard. By that point, i had already lost more than 7 months of my life i was prepared to try anything. She told me that it had helped her daughter and believed that it would do the same or me. I called my local practitioner and booked onto the course at the end of October.
While i was ill, I wasn’t able to exercise for long periods of time, plan any outings as i would always have to ‘see how i feel’. I couldn’t drink or socialise properly, without wanting to go to bed early. I was in pain all of the time, and was irritable, tearful and very frustrated to not live the life I wanted. I wanted an answer.
I was a little apprehensive when i arrived at my practitioner’s house for the course but instantly warmed to her. I was a little late due to traffic on the M25 and I don’t usually get stressed by traffic but I didn’t want to let the others down on the course, so I was a little stressed.
I made a cup of tea, we all introduced ourselves and began the course. The course made so much sense, and within minutes, my brain changed gear and like lightning, I had no pain down my arm, or anywhere else in my body for that matter. It was amazing. When my practitioner asked if we had any questions after the first hour, I told her my revelation and her and the 2 other attendees clapped like mad. It was incredible!
The Lightning Process has changed my life for good! I use it every day and it has really helped me to see the world from a different angle and that we have a choice of how we think and feel and that we can life the life we love!
The day after the course finished, I was waiting for a chest of drawers to be delivered. I needed to remove the drawers from the old one and take them down 3 flights of stairs as I live on the top floor. Without thinking, I started taking 2 drawers down at a time, running back up the stairs to get the next lot. It felt amazing to have my body and mind back! What a feeling!!
I am so much more relaxed now as I have control over my life again. Before the LP, I was not able to even think about planning my hen do or honeymoon. The weekend after the course, we started planning our honeymoon, I have always dreamed of going to Borneo, and with fibromyalgia, I never would have been able to go, but with my energy and health I now have, we had no problem booking it this weekend, I am very excited about seeing the orang-utans!
The LP changed my life because I was ready for it. Compared to others, my illness was short lived because as soon as I knew I was ill I did what I could to start getting rid of it. I was even going to set up a Fibromyalgia support group in my home town once I was rid of it. Now I actually believe that the answer if the Lightning Process’, not a support group.
The LP has turned my life around and I really am living the life I love. The very next month following the course, I had my most successful month at work. Boy, that felt fantastic! I have my sense of humour back, my thirst for life and my love of life itself!
I would very much like to encourage other sufferers to take the course and for them to have their lives back!
