Unlike triggers, which stimulate survival responses, glimmers help us recall times of joy and happiness. Finding personal glimmers requires conscious attention to activities, people, and places that make us feel at ease. They can be self-regulating or co-regulating, and keeping note of them can help access or create more glimmers during times of unease. Seeking out awe-inspiring experiences can also shift our nervous system into a more regulated state.
