It is indeed! This is why so many goo ponies that wanted to be healers gave up on step three, “Iron Stomach,” after a month. It’s a shame. They had such potential to be the very best, but when hunger called, the predator inside answered the phone.~

Here’s the whole steps to becoming a healing slimemare.

(Gooey Gum will need to go through several steps to become a healing slimemare like her mother. These steps are important and are hard to accept if you’re not ready for it.

Step one: Clean Stomach.
To have a clean stomach, Gooey will need to resist devouring prey in order for her stomach to crave something else. Like fruit.

Step two: Pure Mind.
To have a pure mind, Gooey will need to resist daydreaming about eating prey or being eaten by pred. After having a clean mind and having to eat only fruit, Gooey might be ready for step three…
Step three: Iron Stomach.

To have an iron stomach, Gooey will need to swallow a prey and not digest them for three months. To feed, she must eat fruits. To digest, she must digest the fruits and NOT the prey inside her stomach. She must learn to share the food she eats with the prey inside her stomach. She is not allowed to chew the food she eats. Step three is by far the hardest step to overcome and is where most slime ponies gave up on. Many would recommend a prey you are friends with or smaller prey like micro. However, micro prey are super easy to forget about, and you’ll need to eat a dozen of them to have a full belly.

Step four: Achieved Overheal.
To finally become a healing slimemare, Gooey will need to sleep in a large pink pond of healing water for about a month. Sleeping in the pond will give her body Overheal along with changing her core to a heart, which is the symbol of healing.)
