Podcasts about glimmers

On this episode of The Marriage Life Coach Podcast, I'm joined by a brilliant coach and nervous system educator Sarah Hall, whose compassionate approach to stress and productivity has helped so many women feel more calm, clear, and in control. I am proud to say she is also a former client of mine and so delighted to share her wisdom with you!  In this episode Sarah shares some of her favorite takeaways from our private life coaching together. And we talk about the transformative power of life coaching, particularly in managing stress and integrating personal and professional lives.  Sarah introduces the concept of an intentional stress mindset—a way of working with your nervous system, instead of against it. We explore how our stress responses are often shaped by patterns we don't even realize we're in, and how simple shifts in awareness and preparation can dramatically change our experience. You'll hear us talk about the three core nervous system states—mobilized, shut down, and safe—and how to recognize which one you're in. Sarah also shares how to access what she calls “glimmers,” or moments of calm and connection that help support your body and mind even in high-pressure seasons. This conversation is full of insight, but also deeply grounding. It offers a new lens for understanding your stress—not as something to avoid, but something to understand, and eventually, support. Listen in to learn more about: The three nervous system states: safety, mobilization, and shutdown Four intentional stress mindsets and how they reframe your relationship with pressure How preparation supports your nervous system before overwhelm sets in What “glimmers” are and how to identify them in everyday life Why regulating stress starts with tuning in, not powering through The difference between avoiding stress and integrating it Highlights -   00:00 Introduction to Life Coaching and Stress Management 02:01 Integration of Personal and Professional Life 06:50 The Power of Guided Meditations 10:41 Building Confidence and Following Nudges 12:41 Navigating Life's Challenges 18:36 The Importance of Resilience 22:52 Exploring Time Hacking and Productivity 23:51 Understanding the Role of the Mind in Time Management 34:15 Recognizing Gains in Relationships 35:12 Intentional Stress Mindset 36:12 Understanding Stress Cycles 38:35 Mindset for Managing Stress 40:46 Normalizing Dysregulation 42:19 Identifying Nervous System States 47:19 Supporting and Regulating Yourself 49:56 Proactive Nervous System Support 54:09 Glimmers and Micro Moments 57:42 Following Your Nudges

Morning Mantra: “Start looking for all of the tiny glimmers in your life then witness how beautiful life can be.”Glimmers are everywhere but you must train yourself to look for them because humans are naturally wired to look for the negative.Glimmers are the opposite of triggers. Triggers activate your stress response and dysregulate your nervous system. Glimmers activate a state of calm and happiness, noticing them helps you stay regulated.Glimmers are tiny moments of awe that spark joy, help you feel hopeful and evoke positive effects on our mind and body.A glimmer of beauty in a sunset, a flower, a newborn baby.A glimmer of humor in a joke, a movie or situation.A glimmer of joy in tasting a slice of cool watermelon.A glimmer of happiness in a friend's smile.A glimmer of understanding in the lyrics to a good song.A glimmer of hope in a new day.Once you create a habit of noticing glimmers you will see them everywhere and your life will start to glow.#BeAwareOfGlimmers #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #HorseHippieBoutique #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned

Chapters 0:42 Welcome to the Conversation 1:18 Exploring the Glimmer Practice 4:04 The Importance of Sharing Glimmers 5:14 Organizing Your Glimmer Moments 7:12 Creating Community Through Glimmers 9:32 Building a Glimmer Intention 13:46 Befriending Your Nervous System 16:03 Spreading the Glimmer Concept 18:26 The Ripple Effect of Glimmers 19:23 Where to Find More Resources Summary In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, I dive back into a captivating conversation with Deb Dana, whose insights into anxiety regulation and the concept of glimmers truly enrich our understanding of mental wellness. This marks the third installment of our discussion, and for those who missed the previous episodes, I highly encourage listening to them for foundational insights that set the stage for our current exploration. We kick off the episode by discussing the simplicity yet profound impact of the glimmer practice. Deb outlines a straightforward three-step approach: See, Stop, Appreciate. The 'See' encourages us to recognize a glimmer moment in our lives, which could be as simple as witnessing a beautiful rainbow or noticing the soothing sound of birds. I share my own recent experience with a glimmer, highlighting how these moments resonate deeply within our bodies and minds, igniting feelings of joy and wonder. The next step, 'Stop,' prompts us to pause and acknowledge these glimmers instead of passing by; we often forget to appreciate the beauty around us. Deb emphasizes the importance of letting these glimmer moments fill us for just a few seconds, enriching our daily experiences. Following this appreciation, we delve into the 'Appreciate' stage, which encourages marking these moments in various ways, such as journaling or sharing them with a 'glimmer buddy.' This sharing cultivates connections with others, reinforcing the joy and beauty found in these little sparks of life. #Anxiety #NervousSystemRegulation #PolyvagalTheory #Glimmers #Mindfulness #SelfCare #MentalHealth #Resilience #Wellbeing #Connection #Community #DebDana #Journaling #EmbodiedExperience #StressManagement #EmotionalRegulation #Gratitude #Meditation #GlimmerPractice #ACP #GinaRyan #AnxietyCoachesPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

Chapters 0:43 Welcome Back to the Podcast 2:01 Finding Calm Amidst Anxiety 5:18 Organizing Energy for Regulation 8:15 The Power of Micro Moments 10:59 Discovering Glimmers in Life 13:37 Understanding Glimmers and Challenges 15:34 Building a Practice Around Glimmers 16:54 Reflections and Goodbyes Summary In this episode, I continue my enlightening conversation with Deb Dana, a well-respected expert on the polyvagal theory and its practical applications in managing anxiety and nervous system regulation. Building upon our previous discussion, we delve deeper into the profound understanding that our nervous systems inherently seek regulation and safety. Deb passionately emphasizes that understanding our biology and its connection to anxiety can alleviate feelings of self-blame during moments of distress—it's not about being broken, but rather recognizing the natural responses of our body. We explore effective and approachable strategies for moving from states of high anxiety or stress back to a place of calm. Deb presents a compelling perspective that our nervous systems are knowledgeable and capable of guiding us back to balance, provided we are willing to partner with them rather than fight against their natural impulses. We discuss practical steps that individuals can take to channel overwhelming energy in positive, constructive ways. Through gentle shaping and organizing of this energy, Deb highlights the importance of viewing anxiety not as a debilitating condition, but as a natural signal that calls for attention and self-care. Throughout our conversation, we underline the significance of personalized practices in regulating our nervous systems, which may include movement, music, or even spending time in nature. The concept of a personal "menu" of calming strategies is introduced, encouraging listeners to discover what resonates with their unique systems, as there is no one-size-fits-all approach to self-care. Deb underscores the vital role of "micro moments". #anxiety #nervoussystem #regulation #polyvagaltheory #glimmers #mentalhealth #selfcare #mindfulness #healing #podcast #anxietyrelief #stressmanagement #emotionalregulation #wellbeing #mentalwellness #traumainformed #resilience #selfregulation #innerpeace #neuroscience #copingskills #mindbodyconnection #personaldevelopment #healthpodcast #podcastinterview Learn more about your ad choices.

Chapters 0:42 Welcome to the Podcast 1:58 Exploring Glimmer's Journal 8:04 Understanding Polyvagal Theory 12:13 The Nervous System Explained 15:38 Co-Regulation and Connection 17:14 Conclusion and Next Steps Summary In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, host Gina Ryan welcomes special guest Deb Dana, a licensed clinical social worker, clinician, consultant, and leading expert on complex trauma, who specializes in Polyvagal Theory. Deb Dana is not only a respected author of several influential books, including "Polyvagal Prompts" and "Polyvagal Exercises for Safety and Connection," but she is also a co-editor of "Clinical Applications of the Polyvagal Theory" with Dr. Stephen Porges. The discussion centers around her new book, "Glimmer's Journal," which encourages readers to reflect on the small moments that foster joy, safety, and connection—core themes that resonate deeply with the podcast's mission. Gina dives straight into Deb's journey, highlighting how she encountered Dr. Porges' work and realized the vital role the body and nervous system play in psychotherapy. Deb recounts the pivotal moment when she first read Dr. Porges' book, likening it to finding a missing piece of the puzzle in her understanding of the human experience. She shares how her initial outreach led to a collaborative workshop with Dr. Porges, which opened the door for her to incorporate Polyvagal Theory into clinical practice and ultimately inspired the tools and frameworks she has developed. The conversation explores key concepts of Polyvagal Theory, particularly the significance of safety and the role of the nervous system in our daily lives. Deb explains the concept of neuroception, describing how our nervous systems constantly assess safety and danger based on both internal cues—such as physical sensations and emotional states—and external cues from our environment and interactions with others. She emphasizes that an understanding of these dynamics can empower individuals to discern their feelings of anxiety and recognize them as adaptive survival responses rather than indications of personal failure. #mentalwellness #selfcare #wellbeing #emotionalhealth #innerpeace #healing #resilience #mindbodyconnection #polyvagalinformed #polyvagalpractice #panicattacks #overwhelm #copingskills #ACP #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's episode we are spending time focusing on when it goes well. As therapists we look for these 'glimmers' as a way to retrain the brain and body to focus on progress, not just the problem. It's common for couples to get bogged down by what doesn't go well. This is the brain's way to keep you safe and protected but it also makes it hard to let progress take hold. Join Laurie and George today in this great conversation focused on glimmers of eroticism in your relationship. There are two great ways to hone in on glimmers. One is to recall past positive sexual experiences in the relationship. The other is to dig below the surface of the complaint and listen to the request being made. Is your partner giving you the clues for a glimmer that you might be missing? More glimmers help us feel more hopeful and united against the negative cycle. Take a moment today to look back at your past week and explore what went well in your sexual relationship. Even the slightest change is worth noting and sharing with your love. Keep it hot y'all!

Do you feel as if life is passing you by as you rush through one day after another, missing the glimmers that make it worthwhile? I've found that many people feel as if they are barely living – they wake up, work, eat, and sleep – a hum-drum cycle that is repeated joylessly day after day. And, if you add pressure, stress, anxiety–and more stress – into the mix, life can feel purposeless and overwhelming. But hope is on the way! Research shows that you CAN create new, uplifting cycles that foster well-being simply by noticing life's little joys. Join me and renowned mental health expert Deb Dana for a deep dive into the gentle, life-changing power of glimmers. Topics discussed include neurobiology, co-regulation, trauma, complex trauma, dysregulation, regulation, sympathetic nervous system, parasympathetic nervous system, relationships, triggers, glimmers, overwhelm, anxiety, stress, hope, Polyvagal Theory, Stephen Porges, autonomic nervous system, patterns of protection, fight-flight response, safety, connection, neuroception, and healing.

Before the amazing guests join season four, our hosts reflect on all that has happened since we signed off on season three this past spring. They dive into personal updates, changing perspectives on education, and the challenges teachers and students face in a suddenly unstable and unpredictable landscape. Highlights from the conversation include: life updates that cover kids, grandkids, and a perfect bowling game; initial responses to the administration change in the United States, and what it has meant to our "friends to the north;" how attacks on the U.S. Department of Education will affect teaching and learning across the country; admiring how teachers continue to be heroes and our glimmers of hope despite being clouded with uncertainty; how we can work to spread amazing examples of teachers, schools, and districts to better our education systems; and the debut of a new lightning round segment called "Free Range Questions."Questions?

What if you let yourself fall in love with your life—just as it is? In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, we explore the deeply healing practice of romanticizing your life in a way that feels real, nourishing, and embodied. Instead of chasing perfection or aesthetics, we'll focus on finding your glimmers—those small, fleeting moments of beauty, connection, and safety that signal to your nervous system that all is well. You'll learn how orienting toward these micro-moments of joy (glimmers) can gently shift your nervous system into a state of ease, helping you feel more grounded, present, and fulfilled. And to support you in this, I'll guide you through a soothing somatic mindfulness meditation designed to help you slow down, notice your glimmers, and experience life with more depth and meaning. If you've been craving more calm, connection, and joy, this episode is for you. Press play and let's begin.

In this episode of Becoming Witchy, we explore the magic of glimmers—small, everyday moments of awe and connection that bring a sense of calm and wonder.

Plus, I share my experience at a local anti-despair event, where I found inspiration in community activism and sustainable gardening efforts.

Conor Daly is back this week with one pressing question: where did all the IndyCar drivers go? He and co-host Chase Holden discuss the lack of social media presence a lot of the paddock has displayed since the season finale in Nashville. They also debate whether race fans having access to drivers' personal lives is good for the growth of the sport. Conor brings up the discourse surrounding NASCAR's Playoff system and how it has kept NASCAR relevant in a sports market dominated by football. They also respond to Romain Grosjean's spicy comments about how he will likely be sitting out next season due to a lack of funding after one of the best seasons in his career. Longtime NASCAR competitor and NBC broadcaster Parker Kligerman joins the show to discuss his decision to leave the pursuit of full-time racing to further his career in television. He and Conor relate on the ups and downs of being underfunded in racing, and how the glimmers of hope often drive several more years in the grind. Parker goes into what he describes as a symbiotic relationship between racing on Saturdays and broadcasting on Sundays, where he's able to take anecdotes from his time behind the wheel that help him on camera. He also provides some insight into what else he'd like to try in motorsports before hanging up the helmet for good. Finally, the guys tackle the ever burning question of how to help spread the word of IndyCar.
