Doing the Lightning Process Has Changed My Life

Doing the Lightning Process with Amanda Ashley has completely changed my life. It is absolutely PRICELESS.

Life before the Lightning Process was riddled with anxiety, depression, chronic pain, you name it. And that’s putting it lightly.

Life after the Lightning Process became manageable and even JOYful. I started to experience real, authentic joy, which came from the peace and empowerment I was able to access through doing this program with Amanda.

Traumatic Brain Injury to Mental Clarity and Ready for Anything!

I suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury at the age of 10 that led to a myriad of health problems, Gastropareisis, PANDAS, Fibromyalgia, Severe Chronic Pain Syndrome, and lots of Anxiety and Depression to name some of diagnoses. I went from a student, and athlete at whatever sport was around in the season, to someone who had to spend all of his teenage years at home in pain. 

After lots of attempts at lots of clinics, neurologists, and psychiatrists, I found success in my physical well being at the Spero Clinic.  But I still needed to regain my mental clarity which I had been searching for this entire journey, and which many doctors told me would never return.  I used to be at the top of my class, and I loved learning!  After my injury the drastic change to my ability to think clearly was maddening.

From Down and Out with CFS to "Up and At 'Em Again"

Down and out??? That was me for 15+ years. In my early 20’s, I contracted the Epstein-Barr Virus and was hit hard. Fatigue, fever and a sore throat you wouldn’t wish on your worst enemy.  It was a brutal and difficult recovery. Months later I was able to return to school and work. While I wasn’t back to my old self, I felt like I was heading in that direction. Never could I have imagined what would come next...a series of events that were big. And by big, I mean huge.  Over the next three years, I endured the stress of grad school, divorce, moving across the country, starting a new job (one that I ended up hating), learned the house I was renting (and had lived in for over a year at that point) had black mold.

LP for Sleep & Energy: "It Literally Has Changed My Life"

I tried many things and spent lots of money on trying to deal with my sleep issue. I was a real skeptic to the LP, mostly because of the cost and the lack of guarantee of results. I could easily fall asleep but I had problems staying asleep, I would wake up 4-6 times a night.

Well, I am here to report that I sleep really well now. I have more energy, I can do things in the evenings that require an awake brain, that I was not able to do before. I used to have to take a daily nap, I rarely take a nap now! It did not happen all at once for me, I slowly started to get better sleep. Now after about 6 months after taking the LP class and doing the LP daily before going to bed, I have significantly improved sleep.

LP for CRPS: “The Tool That Taught Me How To Change My Brain & Get My Life Back”

Ten years with CRPS can change your life completely. It did so with me. The pain had destroyed me inside and out and I was just a shadow of the person I was before. I was still young and I wanted to live my life so badly, but I couldn’t handle the thought of living a long life with CRPS.  That seemed like an endless torture in my eyes.

I was told that the disease was incurable and that my pain would never disappear. Still, I kept trying new treatment options because I knew if I stopped, the little flame of hope inside of me would go out - and so would my reason to keep on living.

“The LP Has Been a Miracle in My Life”

“The LP Has Been a Miracle in My Life”

For seven years I suffered from CRPS, the worst pain known to man. My beliefs, thoughts, and actions all revolved around this crippling disease. I was barely functional, had lost my job, and was just barely surviving. I was on narcotics and nerve pain medications, had a spinal cord stimulator, and was doing numerous things to help cope with the pain and avoid any flares.

I signed up for the Lightning Process with Amanda, not knowing what it really was, only knowing that it had helped people with similar conditions. The workshop is three days long. After the first day I was fully off my medications and my pain was gone during the daytime. Unbelievable! After a month I was sleeping well and feeling great...all the time! By simply changing my beliefs, thoughts, and actions I was able to control my physiology and reverse an incurable disease. The Lightning Process has been a miracle in my life, opening my eyes to the mind-body connection and giving me the tools to control what I once believed to be beyond my control.

“A Lighthouse to Guide Me out of Chronic Pain and Despair”

“A Lighthouse to Guide Me out of Chronic Pain and Despair”

My name is Gabriel King, I am a chronic pain veteran of five years and a writer. For those five years of hell, I was in a state of limbo, falling aimlessly into a pit of despair. It was a very hopeless place to be and I soon found myself longing for a way out, a lighthouse to guide me out of the darkness. For me, the Lightning Process was that lighthouse. It was an incredible discovery to learn that I had more control over my body than I realized. This tool is a necessity for those seeking to find victory over chronic pain.

CRPS to Freedom and Joy! — Amanda Ashley led Lightning Process®

CRPS to Freedom and Joy! — Amanda Ashley led Lightning Process®

I had the opportunity to learn the Lightning Process with Amanda Ashley a year ago, and it is still something I use daily, sometimes several times a day.  I was treated for CRPS, a rare chronic pain syndrome, and the LP is a technique that I use to 'rewire' the brain, or to create new neuro-pathways.  I left treatment with several 'tools in my bag' to manage pain, but it is the Lightning Process that is my 'go-to'!  Any time I start to feel the slightest hint of CRPS showing it's face, I immediately practice the Lightning Process!

No More Illness, "Life is Amazing"

No More Illness, "Life is Amazing"

My name is Skylar I’m nineteen years old.  I used to live with Gastroparesis, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, CRPS and much more and I took the Lightning Process class several months back.

Before LP I was a genius at unhelpful self talk and being anxious.

My first day of class I was very excited to see that, for one, it’s not my fault that I have become a genius at these things. It was unintentional. That alone was a huge relief for me! It made learning new habits seem easier and more fun.

Crippling Grief to Renewed Joy and Revitalized Health

My brother died suddenly and traumatically in 2016.  The “normal” shock and grief of his death halted my life and months later progressed into a deep depression.  I avoided work. I avoided people.  My self-care routines evaporated.  My business was struggling.  Every aspect of my life was suffering and I was paralyzed.  After a year of watching my finances drain and my physical and emotional health wither, I sought the Lightning Process.

“Before the LP I was mostly homebound. Today I am enjoying life!”

A client wrote recently with an update on her progress:

I have continued to do things that I love since getting back to Seattle! We have had friends over to dinner, I've gone out to lunch with friends, I've attended dance competitions and baseball games, and a special music competition my daughter was asked to play the clarinet in.  What fun!  This is such a wonderful change because before the LP I was mostly homebound.  Today I am enjoying life!

My friends and other people we know have noticed how much better I look!  They comment on the light in my eyes and that my face does not seem stressed out!  I've talked about how the Lightning Process has helped so much.  My counselor that I see every other week and I have talked about what a difference it has made in my life.

I am so thankful to have the tools to live the life I love!

"As for CRPS? ...What CRPS?!"

Before I did the Lightning Process — even though I had experienced a great deal of progress in my battle with CRPS through treatments at the Neurologic Relief Center in Fayetteville, AR —  I did not feel anywhere near ready to proclaim victory. I had a lot of doubts about my ability to hold off the monster that is CRPS, and did not feel confident or complete in my own power against something which had previously stripped me of all sense of control over my body, my mind, and my life.

The tools I learned during the three-day training were life-changing for me.

"The Lightning Process Gave Me My Life Back from Fibromyalgia, CFS and CRPS"

"The Lightning Process Gave Me My Life Back from Fibromyalgia, CFS and CRPS"

Hello, my name is Julie. I'm 48 years old, and from 1985 through July, 29, 2017 I was invisible. I know that you are probably thinking that I've gone completely round the bend, but please hear me out. I was a master of the Art of Becoming Invisible. I have been banged into many a time by people who said they didn't see me - and I'd be walking straight toward them! I could walk through a crowded room undetected and many a time I have startled someone by "appearing out of the blue." One of the most common things that people would say to me was, "Oh, I didn't see you." Once again I'd be right in front of them!

"Life is, at Last, the Life I Want to Lead"

Here I was in my mid 50s and not having a good time of it. Life seemed to be running me. I heard of the Lightning Process from a girl from Australia, who had a lot of success with and stated that it had changed her life. Now that sounded like exactly what I needed.

I had been stuck in the 'fight or flight' response for too many years to count. This had taken its toll on my mind and body, with a whole myriad of symptoms, one of which was Chronic Fatigue, as well as chronic pain, anxiety and stress, just to mention a few.

Out of the Wheelchair and Back on the Motorcycle

After three cracked vertebrae and an unsuccessful surgery, Tom Smith was told by his doctors that there was 'nothing to be done' and he should expect to spend the rest of his life in pain and in a wheelchair.  Not willing to accept this outcome, and inspired by his niece who had used the Lightning Process to recover from 30 years of CFS, Tom came to Portland from Indiana barely able to walk or stand for more than a few minutes. One of his dearest wishes was to ride his motorcycle again...

Pictures tell a thousand words: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) to Exuberant Energy

Pictures tell a thousand words.  

A happy mom was so delighted with her daughter's recovery from CFS that she sent this exuberant photo just 2/12 weeks after Sarah completed the Lightning Process. Later she sent a video of a fun-filled vacation, saying:

"Couldn't have had this amazing experience without the Lightning Process and you!!"

Vibrant health, energy, and vitality

For over 30 years, before I did the Lightning Process training in 2016, I had many chronic issues -- fatigue, sinus infections, colds, depression, anxiety, aches, pains and so on. I consulted with many doctors and tried numerous treatments, some of which were helpful for a short time, but nothing really worked to restore my health on a permanent basis. Sound familiar?

Since I did the LP training, my health and life have truly transformed. I now experience vibrant health, energy, and vitality, as well as remarkable resilience, on a consistent basis. I can do all the things I want to do and can handle anything that comes my way.

Recently, I have had several experiences that would have adversely affected my health in the past (i.e., my mother was in hospice and died, my home was remodeled, and I spent three weeks traveling in Europe). Now I take them all in stride and continue to feel well and enjoy life.

I highly recommend the Lightning Process training and follow-up coaching with Amanda. She is a fabulous trainer and coach. If you are ready to try something new that is truly revolutionary and transformational, and which has actually worked for many people, then the Lightning Process is for you.

Debilitating Pain to "Now I Don't Even Think About It"

Before I did the Lightning Process I was experiencing headaches and severe neck pain, 8/9 out of 10 every day (and I have a high pain threshold) which was completely defining my life. I'd tried so many things -- including physical therapy, and wearing a mouth brace 24/7 for a year -- and nothing seemed to be working.  I was a mess, withdrawing socially and feeling so discouraged.

I'd known about the Lightning Process for a while and one day I just knew I was ready to do it. 'When the student is ready, the teacher appears.'

CRPS to "I Can Do Anything I Want!"

CRPS to "I Can Do Anything I Want!"

The Lightning Process was the best thing I ever did.  Before I did the seminar in the fall of 2014 I'd had CRPS in my leg for over a year, diagnosed by a CRPS specialist at Massachusetts General Hospital. The lightest touch felt ungodly, like nothing I'd ever felt before. If you'd touched my foot with a feather I'd have wanted to punch you, the pain was that intense. I understand why this is called the suicide disease, and for a while I felt suicidal.
