The Lightning Process helps people to move from lives where they feel stuck to ones where they are flourishing - but what does flourishing mean and what is the research into this fascinating topic?

Dr Phil explores the common pattern that many of us get into of assuming that the worst will happen. Examples of this include ‘Whenever I try anything, I know it won’t work,’ ‘Things always turn out badly for me,’ or ‘I’ve tried everything and nothing works’. Dr Phil looks at the research into how this can affect your health, and what you can do to turn this destructive pattern around.

Dr. Phil explains the differences and similarities between mindfulness approaches and the lightning process. You’ll learn some of the key skills and ideas of the LP and how it relates to the ancient practices of mindfulness.
