Testimonials

The Lightning Process is a three day training program giving you the tools that you need to get your life back on track.

Here are several testimonials from participants on our Lightning Process Retreat in Provence.

“Thank you so much Michelle for your wonderful Lightning Process Retreat in Provence! I’ve learnt so much and am pleased to say that I’ve been bounding around ever since!

As for the training, I have learnt loads about myself and my shoulders no longer feel they are carrying the weight of the world around on them! I’m consciously easing up on my need for perfection, which is a big challenge for me, but I’m getting there. I’m sleeping so much better too, which is a great and welcome relief!

Not only was the training absolutely amazing, but the rest of the retreat too. Chateau Colombier provided the perfect environment to clear my head, relax and have some quiet time. Clare was a fantastic host, making us feel so welcome; it felt like home away from home by the end of the first day! The food was divine; I haven’t eaten so well in a long time!

So all in all, this really was the perfect retreat. I’m only sorry it passed so quickly. Once again, thank you”.

As a 49 year old woman who has suffered from chronic anxiety and eating disorders and addictions all my adult life I approached The Lighting Process with cautious optimism. I say cautious because I have already tried several therapies including years of psychotherapy with only limited success. I researched The Lightning process thoroughly and this led to me making two of the best decisions of my life. The first being to do the Lighting Process and the second being to have the experience in the form of a retreat in Provence with the highly skilled and professional trainer, Michelle Clemons.

Michelle was an inspiration to the group. Over the course of the three-day training program she proved to be intuitive, intelligent, knowledgeable and informative as well as fun, encouraging and accepting. She handled our group with great care creating a relaxed and open atmosphere. At all times throughout the training I felt in a safe place under her guidance. I could not recommend her more highly. As a result of having done the training I have turned my life around in ways that I would never have expected. I have finally broken through so many of my negative behavioural patterns and regained control over many different aspects of my life.

I was nurtured in so many other ways on the retreat, all of which enhanced the extraordinary experience of the Lightning Process.

First there is the extraordinary beauty of Provence. Add to that the charisma of Chateau Colombier, a two hundred year old stone farmhouse that has been renovated to the highest of standards and offering comfort and quality beyond anything I had imagined. The bedrooms, all with their own bathrooms, are spacious and retain the character of Provence. Then there are the numerous additional rooms such as a library with wood-burning stove, a dining room with a piano, a sunny top-floor conference room with kitchen facilities - all presenting the opportunity to mingle with others.  A sense of spaciousness and tranquillity prevails throughout this house that embraces all who inhabit it. The food was faultless and plentiful. Everything we ate was  freshly created from local produce and in addition we were offered generous amounts of local wines. We wanted for nothing.

Then there are the activities on offer all of which were varied and appropriate, including wine tasting, walking, cycling, trips into the charming local town of Nyons, aromatherapy, massage, shiatsu and yoga. I experienced the latter two for the first time in my life and was so impressed that I have signed up for both therapies since returning to London!

The Lighting Process Retreat and all it had to offer made for a unique and life changing experience. It fulfilled all that it promised and surpassed all expectation. I cannot recommend it more highly.

“What an amazing 5 days! It’s quite difficult to put into words. Arrival day: I arrived not knowing quite what to expect and was blown away by the stunning location and the fabulous welcome at the Chateau Colombier! Day one of the training was intense, but I could already see that I had the power to make big, big changes. Afternoon off……brilliant relaxing yoga followed by a stroll through the olive groves!


Day two: Morning training and this is becoming like an extraordinary epiphany! I’m understanding how I’ve been functioning and the process is teaching me that I can function in a whole new way. Amazing! Continue to practice the process in the afternoon, in between wine tasting and a tour of the local town.

 

Day three: Final training day and already I’m feeling so very different and so much more in control of my life. The mind body connection is so strong too. Since beginning the training I’m sleeping so much better and have so much more energy and enthusiasm. I’m no longer allowing my anxieties and fears to take hold and I now know that I have all the strategies for a life I love!

 

Thank you Michelle, your training was excellent. Afternoon off and a complete change and personal challenge for me in the form of a cooking class! Wow! All done with joy and not an ounce of stress or anxiety! Final day and what an experience we’ve all had. The whole group had an amazing time and we feel really close…..mustn’t lose touch. Clare was a brilliant host and her cooking sublime. Thank you for providing this amazing opportunity: I have gone home a totally different person, thanks to the Lightning Process Retreat in Provence!”
