Nature and healthy Children

A lot of my work is involved in the impact chronic physiological stress plays on our health.

I have worked a lot with children and over the years and I have become fascinated by the positive impact that being in nature has on our physiology and health. Most would agree that they feel less stressed in 'green space'. But as our culture changes our children have less contact with nature and less direct nature experiences.

This is an article I wrote a while back that looks at this subject. Enjoy

London Training

Any doubts about having made the right decision to become a Lightning Process Practitioner soon disappeared when I began my studies. Most of the people training with me had recovered from ME or CFS over the last year. The all had incredible stories of recovery. Some have spent long periods in bed or in a wheelchair!

The buzz in the room is incredible...filled with all these incredible people who have made such recoveries and ready to help others achieve the same.

To further the excitment of being invloved in such a training, I sit in on regular 'live' seminars and watch people arrive on Day 1 (normally with a mix of fear and excitement) and leave on Day 3 transformed. They have a look on their face that I remember from my wife. It is the look of someone who is once again in control of their life and are ready to live life to the fullest.

The transformation for some is quite amazing. You can see it from a distance, in their faces, how they carry themselves. Even their clothes tell the story of their transformation.

They have reclaimed their lives!

It is such an honour to be bringing the Lightning Process to Australia and New Zealand.

MY STORY

I have been teaching and training for over a decade with both adults and children in environmental education. When I first met my wife she was an active, energetic and full of life. We swam, hiked, climbed mountains....but little did I know that she was ‘pushing through’ to achieve this, and her ‘crash’ a few days later was my introduction to Chronic fatigue Syndrome. I would slowly see her leave a job she loved, loose friends, struggle with the simplest of activities and at times be bed bound.

Her path became my path as I took on the role of carer. I was way too young to be a carer for my young partner, but that is the tragedy of CFS. I watched the ups and downs, the crazy cures, the seemingly uncaring doctors, the endless blood tests. It sometimes felt hopeless. Any progress she seemed to make would all give way to another crash.

She had managed her energy well for a few months, but on the second night of our honeymoon she had another crash and it felt like our lives were destined to revolve around CFS. It was one of the loneliest moments of my life - to be strolling along a tropical beach on my honeymoon......on my own. So we settled into a life of never knowing what tomorrow would bring. Grateful for the ups but always bracing ourselves for the inevitable downs.

When I heard about the Lightning Process, I was dubious but the results from others were incredible. The thought of a full recovery was so enticing, when we were merely aiming to just manage it. Maybe that’s why I was dubious. How can you get such results in just 3 days! My wife’s friend who had successful taken the Lightning Process practically pleaded for her to try it, and it was her results that gave us the confidence we needed.

So with the aid of Wheelchair assistance and very helpful airport staff my wife made the trip to England on her own.

At the end of the first day I received an excited phone message from London about the Lightning Process and news that she was off for a long walk! after Day 2 I had a long email, written with such an energy and passion I hadn’t witnessed in years. By the final day she was ready to live a full life again.

All the while I was wondering whether this was just another build up for a spectacular crash, and she still had her jet lag to contend with coming home……

But a few weeks later a very different person walked through the Arrivals door at Brisbane airport.

When people ask me now what it was like, I honestly struggle to remember. It feels like another life time. Since doing the Lightning Process we have traveled, started a family and a new business together. The days of her brain fog are long gone as she often puts me to shame with her sharp analytical mind. We used to dream of having a normal life, but instead we have a spectacular life.

After my experience with the Lightning Process in the UK, I was determined to help those in Australia and New Zealand. I made it my mission to bring the Lightning Process here.

Teaching the Lightning Process allows me to help people return to their true nature – their energetic and vibrant former selves. To be able to live the life they love.

How LP came to OZ & NZ

The Process that has helped thousands around the World is now finally available in Australia and NZ.

CFS, ME, PVSD, FM. These are real physical illnesses & I know how horrible they can be. My wife had Chronic fatigue Syndrome for 7 years. As her carer I know how it consumes people’s lives –both the sufferer and their loved ones. Then you had to travel to Europe for the Lightning Process. The transformation in her health was incredible. After 7 years of hell, she returned to Australia symptom free.

So I made it my mission to bring the Lightning Process to Australia. We moved to England and I underwent training and accreditation, and returned as Australasia’s only practitioner.

I am so excited to be able to offer it to others.

This blog will record my journey as a LP practitioner. I hope to give people a sense of me and the work I do.
