Chronic Pain
Our son completed the Lightning Process with Bianca in December 24, and in his words it has 'changed my life'.
We had been through a complicated few years with chronic pain and he was unable to be at school fully and was missing out on just being a kid.
We heard a podcast with Bianca and truly felt that this was the piece we were missing. Listening to the audiotapes before we completed the training really got him on board as he has a very science-y brain and he was fascinated with all the research and examples of neuroplasticity in action. We completed the Lightning Process in person and Bianca was the perfect coach - empathetic, understanding and encouraging, and what really helped him was that she fully understood what he had been through, and was proof that with consistency, you can re-wire your brain and create new patterns.
I had thought that he might struggle to focus in the sessions, but that was not a problem – they were engaging and the training of how to coach yourself and be compassionate to yourself was great. He set himself some big goals and really smashed them – spending full days at school before the end of the year, going to school camp and being pain-free before his birthday.
He has had some relapses since he went through the Lightning Process, which we have sought Bianca’s help with. He now has a much stronger awareness of the things that start to send his system into protective mode, and recognises patterns and when things are starting to overwhelm his system, and he has tools to calm everything down. He is a different kid - thriving in school and challenging himself in ways that warm our hearts. I love the process so much that I have started training with Phil Parker myself – thank you Bianca.
