Our unique Emotional Fitness system encourages you to focus on "glimmers" rather than triggers.
Glimmers are the positive moments happening every day that most people barely acknowledge. They are the little gratitudes, smiles, laughs, achievements, awarenesses and understandings. They are the empathy, the care, the resilience, the courage and support we rarely stop to notice.
Training our brain to look for glimmers in life helps us to see the good in ourselves and others. It helps us feel less stressed, anxious, envious, agitated, angry, depressed or dysregulated.
Over the course of our lives, most people slowly become trained to focus more on triggers, pain and problems. Our often ‘mean and critical inner voice’ can become very loud, very persistence and very convincing.
The judgements and fears of this inner voice can cause us to focus on the negative, the risk, the hurt, the worry, and the ‘worst-case’ more than we should.
We actually don’t have to live like this and at the Emotional Fitness Club one of our biggest goals is to reprogram your brains default setting to notice the glimmers instead of the triggers. Instead of automatically worrying about what could go wrong, you’ll start to look for what could go right, and what is right already.
Imagine an Instagram-like feed showcasing your proud moments, your biggest connections, your tiny highlights, your big highlights, your care, your hope, your dreams, your softness, your light, your resilience, your bravery and moments of inner strength.
It sounds beautiful right? It is!
Every single day we release a new glimmer focused Eq journal prompt within our community. Every day you have the ability to investigate, communicate and connect with yourself and others over these key insights.
