IT IS A LIFE/GAME CHANGER

BALM, Testimonials | November 3, 2018

A BALM Testimonial by:

Lucy Tomkins
BALM Family Recovery Life Coach

What does “being a BALMer” mean?  I suspect you would get a different answer from almost everyone you asked on any given day.  But I think it is just who we become.  It is ingrained into our souls and our core.  Sometimes it is utilized in life changing ways but mostly it is just small everyday ways of being.  How we breathe through difficult and challenging situations, how we choose to respond rather than react, how we instinctively do self-inquiry and challenge our limiting/negative thoughts, how we listen deeply to those we love and those we don’t, accepting them for who they are rather than trying to fix/change them.  It is in our tone, our thoughts, our words, our actions and our behaviors.

I still get it wrong on numerous occasions, I still yell, judge, react and more, but the difference is now I am aware of how I am being, and I can choose to do it differently next time and make amends when I get it wrong.  I have come a long way from the screaming banshee who just had to be right!!

If anyone is thinking of training to become a BALM family recovery coach, all I can say is that you will get so, so much more out of it than just becoming a coach.  It is a life/game changer.
