What is the Lightning Process?
The Phil Parker Lightning Process® (LP) is a practical training programme not a therapy, not a talking cure, not a medication. It teaches you a set of skills that use the connection between your brain and body to influence your own health.
Using gentle movement, mental exercises, and meditation-like techniques, you learn how to shift the patterns your nervous system has got stuck in – switching on pathways that promote health, and interrupting ones that are keeping you unwell.
It sounds simple. The science behind it is anything but.
The science behind the LP
Why your body gets stuck and how the LP helps
When you’ve been ill for a long time, your nervous system has often learned to stay in a state of high alert. This is your body’s Physical Emergency Response (PER) – the same “fight or flight” system designed to protect you from short-term threats.
The problem is that when this response stays switched on for months or years – triggered by illness, stress, or life events – it causes real biological damage that builds up over time. Researchers call this allostatic load. It disrupts sleep, immunity, healing, and energy. It’s not in your head. It’s measurable. And it’s changeable.
The LP works by teaching your brain to interrupt this response and build new, healthier neurological pathways. This is neuroplasticity in action – your brain’s remarkable ability to rewire itself through new patterns of thought and behaviour.
Is it backed by research?
Yes. There are 18 peer-reviewed papers published over 27 years, including an NHS & University of Bristol Randomised Controlled Trial – the gold standard of medical research – which found the LP to be effective and safe.
Take Back Control. Transform Your Response. Rebuild Your Life.
How it works
I teach the Lightning Process over three consecutive half-days either in-person or online over Zoom (typically in small group sessions or tailored one-to-one work). You’ll be guided through:
How and why your recovery stalled and, importantly, what you can do to resolve this.
How to identify and interrupt unconscious patterns that are keeping you stuck
How to build new neurological pathways that promote health and healing instead
Reinforcing these new neurological pathways to ensure these stick.
The tools of the Lightning Process involve gentle movement, mediation-like techniques and mental exercises.
By putting these tools into practice, you’re able to change the way your nervous system responds to stimulus; switching on new neural pathways which stimulate better physiology, so you can reset your body’s innate healing systems.
People Typically Report:
Increased energy and physical capability
Improved clarity of thought
Reduced intensity of symptoms
Greater confidence in managing everyday challenges
Enhanced capacity to return to meaningful activities, such as exercise, socialising, or work.
Success in this program depends on consistent application of the tools learned and an openness to engaging with the training process.
Success Stories
“I went from being stuck in a cycle of fatigue, high heart rates, not wanting to socialise or get out of bed to completing an ironman in 4 months.
I learnt so much about myself in that period of time and I still use what I learnt to help me now”
— Sally
“Since the training, I’ve completely recovered. I feel better than I remember feeling before I got chronic fatigue, which is just absolutely amazing!
I’ve also use the process to help recover from a quite sever intolerance to gluten which has absolutely changed my life. I can drink beer and go the pub and order a parmy, which is just like the BEST feeling!!”
— Grace
— Natasha“I feel physically stronger, mentally sharper, and have a much kinder and more compassionate way of relating to myself throughout the day.
I am grateful to Liz for guiding me through the Lightning Process and introducing me to tools I can rely on for the rest of my life.”

Work with me
Hi, I’m Liz Allen.
I’m an Aussie beach-loving salsa dancer, Advanced Lightning Process® Practitioner, Master NLP Practitioner and coach.
In 2017 I contracted a virus which led to chronic fatigue. I was left house bound, had to quit my job in fashion design and spent the next 9 months trying everything I could to recover.
Things changed dramatically when I learnt how to retrain my brain and body to heal. I made a swift recovery and I got my life back.
This profound experience inspired me to retrain in the UK in NLP, Hypnotherapy and Coaching, specialising in the mind-body connection so I could help others.
I’m living proof that healing is possible and now I coach and train others how to do the same.
“The Lightning Process changed my life and I couldn't recommend it more highly”
"I did the Lightning Process course with Liz in December 2019, in order to deal with chronic fatigue, which I had for 6 years. I had tried doctors, specialists, medication, supplements, diet and a fatigue clinic without significant improvement to my symptoms.
Before I did the course, I was sceptical - I was sure that it wouldn't work for me even if it had worked for others. I was completely blown away by how effective the course was. I felt more energetic after the first day and my family couldn't believe how much I had changed. On the second day of the course, I went for a run, which was something I had only dreamed of doing before.
Liz is an excellent teacher. She made me feel comfortable with the process, answered all my questions, was incredibly kind and supportive and wanted me to succeed.
The Lightning Process course changed my life and I couldn't recommend it more highly. It's the best thing I've ever done for my health and wellbeing."
— Maria
