What Exactly is the BALM® One Year Family Recovery Program?

The BALM® Family Recovery Program is a year-long SOLUTION-ORIENTED family recovery education program. The BALM helps families get their lives back and teaches them how to help their struggling loved ones do so, too. The BALM® method teaches families how to engage their loved ones through evidence-based brief interventions that can encourage loved ones to enter and commit to recovery more quickly. The BALM® method helps families shift away from anxious reactivity to calm responsiveness, bringing a new found serenity to the family environment. This change in family behaviour can also help a loved one avoid or shorten slips and relapses.

Why Sign Up for the BALM® One Year Family Recovery Program?

This is one of the best things you can do to support yourself, your family and your child – focus on yourself… Because you will connect with others, have the opportunity to share and to be coached, join in a variety of classes as you wish, live and recorded to suit your schedule and you will gain an awareness that will change how you communicate with everyone in your life. While you may not agree with everything the BALM® teaches, you will become very clear on what makes sense for you and your family. There is a lot of information available to you in the BALM® platform and you can take what you want and leave the rest. Having the connection with a community of people with shared experience and goals is invaluable. You should not go on this journey alone. It is truly a transformational experience and you will learn as much about yourself as you will about your loved ones.

You will be empowered with a new awareness that infuses confidence and intention into your life and can re-establish authentic connection with your struggling child. You can establish peace in yourself, your family and home while becoming your loved one’s best chance at recovery.

Having a child who struggles with addiction is one of the most challenging and lonely journeys a parent can experience, and yet you are not alone. So many families needlessly suffer in silence. Do not take this journey alone. You will have the opportunity to create deep friendships and have a safe haven where you can feel free to talk about your concerns and share and exchange within the community.
