Summary
Emil did an initial three-day Lightning Process course with a private tutorial, then repeated a second course three months later as an observer, both led by Live Landmark, alongside a parent-led strategy of keeping him engaged in enjoyable activities. Symptoms had escalated over two to three years before a severe, bedridden phase lasting about ten months from the start of seventh grade, with headaches, sore throat, ear pain, nausea, vomiting and around 12 hours of sleep nightly. After the second course he "learnt to control his focus by himself, and then things improved very quickly," returning to school part-time and then full days within weeks. By the following summer he was cycling extensively, competing in 11 orienteering events, and went on a European road trip. He had a couple of months of severe headaches managed with over-the-counter medication shortly into his improvement, but otherwise no relapse is described.
