Welcome to Blue Grit
I’m Eric Tung, a police officer with 17 years of experience, currently serving as a patrol operations commander in Washington State. I started Blue Grit Wellness to share my journey through law enforcement and the lessons I’ve learned about true health—mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, social, and career.
Blue Grit isn’t just about being tough; it’s about embracing courage, growth, and resilience. I’ve seen both the darkest and most inspiring sides of humanity, and I believe in the importance of taking care of all aspects of our well-being. Through Blue Grit, I aim to support first responders (both individuals and agencies) in achieving a balanced, healthy life, connecting through shared experiences, coaching, and community.
Stay gritty!
"I was put in charge of Officer Wellness and Safety. I immediately had my regional training coordinator... conduct a nationwide search to find the lead expert in Officer Wellness. After of about two months of phone calls and internet searches we found Eric Tung and immediately knew we had found the premier expert of Officer Wellness. After the first meeting [he] was able to gear us to the right direction by giving his expert tutelage on writing a wellness policy."
