Empowering people to shine brightly

Become a certified Glimmer Seeker and learn how to guide yourself and the kids you support through simple, evidence-based practices that help us notice moments of joy, calm, and connection – known as glimmers. This programme equips participants with everything they need to introduce and embed "glimmer seeking" into classrooms, youth settings, or family routines. It's the essential first step in our wider training pathway.

What is a glimmer seeker?

An Official Glimmer Seeker is someone a (child or grown-up) who has learned key skills for self-care including to how spot and savour small, positive moments in daily life. These might be sensory (the feel of the sun on your face), relational (a friend giving you a smile), or internal (a moment of pride or calm). Over time, glimmer seeking strengthens the nervous system, improves emotional regulation, and helps us shift from surviving to thriving.

I thoroughly enjoyed our second session of glimmer seeking, which really helped with learning practical ways in which I could support the students I work with. Another fabulous session with Laura which I would 100% recommend!

Retrain Your Brain to Look for Joy

Glimmers are the tiny moments of joy, warmth, or connection that are easy to miss — but when you start noticing them, everything changes.

Since I started noticing Glimmers, my whole perspective has shifted. It's a game changer!

— Lisa, Teacher & Parent

Nice to feel valued and supported as an individual. We often miss out our own care in the struggle to set up all the many school and group sessions that we run throughout the year.
