Frequently Asked Questions
Can my Doctor assess me for readiness for the Lightning Process?
If your Doctor or health care specialist is trained in The Phil Parker Lightning Process then they can of course assess you for readiness to take the programme.
If they are not trained in the programme they will not have the requisite skills or knowledge base about this very specialised field to assess you.
A large part of the training for Lightning Process practitioners is to train them to appropriately assess potential trainees for their suitability for the process, as it is essential to distinguish, as far as is possible, that only those who are ready to get benefits from the training programme are enrolled in the training.
Is it like any other therapy?
No. Firstly it's not a therapy it's a training programme. Secondly no other programme I know of is developed from a combination of Neuro-linguistic Programming, Osteopathy and Coaching.
Is it like Reverse or Mickel therapy, or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)?
No, it’s completely unrelated. The Lightning Process is a completely new approach.
Is it Positive Thinking?
No, unfortunately Positive Thinking on its own is unlikely to make you recover.
I’m worried that the training will be too tiring?
Most people that have successfully completed the training had the same concern. But you can do it. Your symptoms will start improving in the first session and thereafter things will get easier.
Does it last or will I get ill again?
Yes it lasts; you will make permanent changes to your health.
Is it difficult?
No, anyone over 8 can learn the techniques.
What happens after the 3 days training seminar?
If after the training you feel you need further support, maybe to help you to adjust back into "normal life" or just to answer questions you may have, Helen will always be happy to provide further support as required. You will also be given a support CD, which talks you through how to apply the process in the first week after the seminar, and reminds you of what you have learnt.
Building Your Future seminars are also available around the country to assist you in putting all you have learnt into practice to create a life you love. And you will have access to a website dedicated to graduates of the Lightning Process, where you will find more details about other courses and tools to support your training, the latest news and free podcasts from Phil Parker.
