New Year, New Start

I hope you enjoyed a fantastic Christmas and are looking forward to a bright and healthy 2012.  At Head Office we have taken phone calls from lots of people who have decided that they are going to make 2012 the best year ever, and are signing up to do the Lightning Process with their local practitioner.  There is a free Team Talk here in London next Wednesday if you would like to find out more about the Lightning Process and how you can influence your health and life.  Contact the office on: 020 7374 0233 or email: info@philparker.org for more details.
Wishing you a very Happy New Year

Lightning Process and Anxiety: Part 2

If you have a health issue and are also experiencing anxiety, are you aware that the anxiety may be inhibiting your recovery? Anxiety triggers the fight or flight mechanism, which suppresses your immune function; this is the system for healing the body.

I had ME/chronic fatigue syndrome for 8 years. Anxiety became a daily experience; I worried constantly about my health, for instance whether doing something like going for a walk, or going out for a meal would make me feel worse. I didn’t realise that the worry itself was getting in the way of my recovery.

The Lightning Process is designed to teach people how to interrupt these unhelpful patterns and calm the fight or flight response through specific steps using movement, posture, coaching. By practicing these steps, it is possible to break these patterns and to generate calm, which enhances the body’s capacity to heal.

Lightning Process and Anxiety

A number of people with anxiety issues have recently completed the Lightning Process, all reporting very positive results. I have had enquiries from people with anxiety issues who are taking medication. Some of them have commented on the side effects of medication, which include akathisia; the inability to stay still/restlessness, insomnia, irritability, sedation.

People who do the Lightning Process have also reported side effects of doing the Lightning Process: feeling calm, relaxed, light, happy, confident, alive, enthusiastic, in charge, to name but a few of the words they have used to describe how they feel.

It would seem that not all side effects are equal!

Lightning Process and Stress

Wednesday 2nd November was stress awareness day.

We can take charge of our lives and generate positive feelings by remembering the Serenity Prayer:

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
 courage to change the things I can,
 and wisdom to know the difference.

People often get worked up about things that they cannot change. This is effectively like crying over spilt milk; not a useful activity.

The Phil Parker Lightning Process is designed to train people to focus on the things that they can change; to focus on things that are within our sphere of influence. Are you doing this in your life?
