What is a glimmer?
A glimmer is a tiny moment we can observe that begin to shift our nervous system, brain, and body toward more resilience and regulation. You can think of glimmers as the opposite of triggers - glimmers are triggers’ happy, sparkly, regulating fraternal twin siblings. Where triggers are cues that something dangerous or stressful is happening, glimmers are cues that the body and brain are having a feeling of pleasantness, safety, and connection.
Why are glimmers important?
More than just the self-care we see on Instagram like bubble baths or watching tv, true resilience means connecting with our brain and our body to tune into what we need and want. Our brains and bodies are meant to work together in harmony but many times, because of exhaustion, busyness, and a fast-paced world, we disconnect from ourselves. By exploring glimmers and resilience skills together, we can connect with a sense of agency over taking care of ourselves in a way that makes sense for us.
