LP Day 2

Have been trying to apply the lightning process since the session yesterday, and I cant say it was easy! Woke up and had my usual worries ("I'm so tired" "I'm not going to get through the day" "I'm never going to get better" etc) and had to use all my strength to use the LP and overcome them. Went to school and did my GCSE French Oral (it was pretty scary but not too bad.) At school I noticed many negative thought processess. The hardest one to overcome was getting frustrated about the "spaced out feeling" that I get around lots of people. Had to try SO hard to use LP to overcome this...and it actually worked!

When I arrived at the LP session everyone was excited about people's progress. The woman had managed to climb the stairs for the first time in 2 years, the man had gone for a five minute jog and not worried about M.E, the girl had concentrated on a conversation with her mum for half an hour, and I'd actually enjoyed a 5 minute ride on my bike. :) We were then taught the advanced parts of the lightning process (positive films) and this really helped me. I explained my problems to the coach, who helped me out and explained where I was going wrong.

By the end of this session I can honestly say I was the most calm, relaxed and happy that I've been in years! I went to my piano lesson this evening with a smile on my face, and although I felt the M.E tiredness towards the end, managed to get through it using the LP.

I'm aware that this is going to be such hard work, without saying the words of the process out loud I find it difficult at the moment. But I'm learning....and am sure that if I persevere then I'll get the results I want; an M.E free life! :)
