Within the busy day-to-day of caring for little ones, it is easy to overlook when you have achieved something that before you felt was unreachable. Every step, big and small is worthy of recognition. We at PiM love to term glimmers, these are essentially the opposite of "triggers".
Glimmers refer to small moments when our biology is in a place of connection or regulation, which cues our nervous system to feel safe or calm.
We're not talking great, big, expansive experiences of joy or safety or connection, these are micro moments that begin to shape our system in very gentle ways.
Some articles of glimmers that our PiM parents have shared with us;
