Now, we’re all relatively familiar with the term ‘trigger’, but how about ‘glimmer’? A glimmer is the opposite of a trigger- instead of setting of a series of negative thoughts, feelings or emotions, a glimmer is something that ‘lights you up’, and creates feelings of joy, peace and rest within us.

Glimmers are little things that give you feelings of peace, joy or warmth in your day. Think of stroking a pet, the smell of your morning coffee, or seeing the sun set. It can be something as small as noticing the sun peeking through the trees.

The idea is that if we pay more attention to the things that light us up, the more we’ll notice them. And the more we notice them, the more we can try to include them into each day.

So, if we’re able to acknowledge what makes us feel little moments of joy, we can focus on incorporating those more into our day to day, and practice moments of gratitude and contentment. Sound good? Here’s some of team LKC’s glimmers to help inspire you with yours.
