"Now that I am a few months beyond the Taming the Bear course, I am amazed at the extent of the change I see in my daily life. I am so much better able to recognize when I am feeling reactive about a topic/situation/conversation. This increased awareness, combined with the process of the 7 tools learned during the course, means I am able to consider my feelings and actions with curiosity rather than being completely caught up in the moment and reacting. Meeting myself with so much more compassion than judgement, like we learned in the course, has also been a game changer for me. My days feel lighter since I am being kinder to myself. Our TTB group has kept in contact after the course ended, and the mutual support and validation has been so much fun to continue. The shared lessons and language of TTB mean that we can support each other as we continue to grow into using the tools. The community feeling among our small group is a real support—we are actively planning our next group check in to keep that feeling going."
"I didn't have a lot of expectations when I signed up for the class, but someone I trusted assured me that the content was something I should explore. 12 weeks later, I am infinitely grateful that I listened. The 7 tools start with simple awareness of how I am choosing to experience my life and react to it. Going into it, I would have said that I thrive on career stress, and the adrenaline of constantly striving to achieve, solve, and master work is something that has been a positive accelerant to my career. The number of "lightbulb!" moments I've had about the impact of that kind of lifestyle is infinite. Taking time to explore why that drive is a constant in my life and how it impacts non-work relationships and my health is making a difference in the choices I make. I'm evolving at being able to step back from the moment and take an objective stance before I react. I'm learning to understand what my reactions are tied to--at the deepest level--and this understanding leads to self compassion and evolution. Since the class ended, our cohort has maintained our relationships, and we continue to support each other through sharing of reading materials, experiences, and simple reminders. I'm not exactly where I want to be, but I understand the journey, and the 7 Tools are ones that I can take out and apply regularly to address the daily realities of my work and personal life."
"Taming The Bear was undoubtedly one of the most impactful experiences in my 15-year journey with Traumatic Brain Injury and Post Traumatic Stress. Incorporating the Seven Tools of Healing into my daily life provided perspective and practical skills that allowed me to transform my perceptions and effectively manage my emotions. It is a life changing experience I would recommend to any service members or veterans that have been to combat and then find themselves in a battle to rediscover their souls."
