Summary
Svein Tore Røynestad took a Lightning Process course led by Live Landmark at Easter 2021, after about six years of chronic fatigue (also referred to as ME) that began in autumn 2015. He describes low energy, flu-like feelings, restlessness and poor concentration that left his life "on hold, with all sorts of restrictions," including having to give up partway through a bike ride, "completely knackered." About a month after the course he completed a bike ride to Tjøme that he had previously abandoned, and he writes "life is smiling once more; my quality of life is getting back to my old highs." He credits the group setting and the tools taught on the course, saying "the tools we learnt to use, and the fact that we were in a group together was important." No relapse or setback is mentioned in the story.
