"I was diagnosed with CFS/ME in 2002, but I believe I had the condition for 2-3 years before that.

I had regular periods of chronic illness which manifested as inability to sleep, flu-like symptoms, lack of energy and mental as well as physical fatigue, which confined me to bed.

I had difficulty in handling stressful situations. However, I also had periods of feeling well and able to live a more normal life, e.g.. work in the home and garden, social and recreational activities, etc., although within limits, e.g.. regular rest periods through the day, not going out on an evening, no holidays. These good periods did last for several weeks.

Throughout my illness I had tried many treatments such as diet, health supplements, exercise, relaxation, cranial osteopathy, counselling, etc. Whilst I experienced periods when I felt well I couldn't seem to achieve full recovery no matter how dedicated I was.

I read an article in the press about Phil Parker and "The Lightning Process®" training course. From his web site I was able to find information on Jenny Gilmore, an advanced practitioner, who had once suffered from the same condition and now taught the technique.

Following the completion of my application form I had a conversion with Jenny and was delighted to be accepted onto the three day training course. After the first day I felt different. For the first time in ten years I felt confident that my body was going to fully recover. I left the third session feeling free of CFS/ME and committed to regaining my full strength and being able to live the life I love.

I could never have imagined how quickly and by how much the Process could change things for me. I felt so well that I started jogging again after many years. In my enthusiasm I went a touch too fast and I suffered a cartilage injury to my right knee. Funny thing is even though I was in a great deal of pain it felt good to say I had a sporting injury. I felt that during the weeks of recovering from my injury it was a real test of my positive outlook on my health and general well being. I continued to use the Lightning Process® every day and listened to Phil Parker's CD to help and encourage me when I found myself looking for signs of fatigue. I felt a great sense of achievement of overcoming this hiccup without sacrificing any improvement in my overall well being.

My husband and I are now enjoying all normal day to day activities without having to make allowances for my fatigue and have confidence when planning ahead. I know I will go from strength to strength.

"I can't thank Jenny enough for teaching me how to reclaim my life."
