Look for the glimmers. ✨
Glimmers are the opposite of triggers — tiny moments your nervous system recognises as safe, calming, or joyful.
For me, they’ve shown up quietly… sunlight through the trees, a favourite song playing softly through my headphones, the smell of a scented candle, the gentle warm breeze in a hot summers day, the cozyness of my favourite socks.
For neurodiverse mums, especially during pregnancy and postpartum, glimmers can be powerful anchors. They gently shift attention away from sensory overwhelm and toward what feels good, helping regulation in a kind, sustainable way.
The best part? Glimmers are all around us — and they don’t need to be big events. With a pause, a breath, and a scan of your senses, you can find them in the everyday.
