  • Glimmers, Nervous System Healing & Self-Care with Nadia Narain & Katia Narain Phillips

    Glimmers, Nervous System Healing & Self-Care with Nadia Narain & Katia Narain Phillips
    May 25 2026
    This week on the podcast, we’re diving into a concept you’ve probably seen everywhere lately: glimmers. Recently identified by trend forecasters as one of the defining wellbeing trends for 2026, glimmers - the opposite of triggers - are tiny moments that spark feelings of safety, joy, calm, or connection. At a time when wellness can often feel overwhelming, expensive, or performative, glimmers offer something beautifully simple: the ability to find nourishment in what’s already around us. To explore this idea, we’re joined by two women who have quite literally written the book on it — sisters Nadia Narain and Katia Narain Phillips, authors of Glimmers: Tiny Moments to Transform Your Life.Nadia and Katia have spent decades exploring healing, self-care, nervous system regulation, and emotional wellbeing.
    Together they are also the bestselling authors of Self-Care for the Real World and Rituals for Every Day.In this conversation, we discuss:
    • What glimmers actually are and why they matter
    • How noticing small positive moments can support nervous system regulation
    • The science behind glimmers and brain rewiring
    • Why this practice resonates so deeply right now
    • The connection between glimmers, trauma healing, and mental health
    • Simple ways to begin noticing glimmers in everyday life
    • Personal glimmers Nadia and Katia have experienced recently
    • And the self-care practices they turn to themselves
    This is a warm, grounding and hopeful conversation about finding beauty, safety and connection in the smallest moments and why those moments may be more powerful than we realise.Come see us hosting in the Menopause tent at the Everywoman Festival on June 13th https://www.everywomanfest.com/tickets-london

I work from home and get up at 4am to make sure I get enough work hours in as currently solo parenting while going through the long process of getting my husband (of 11 years!) to be able to live in the U.K. This podcast is actually helping me get out of bed every morning and get going (I discovered it late so there is enough of a back catalogue for me to do this!) What started off as me being curious about a couple of practices has become part of my routine - it’s ‘useful’ comedy so I don’t feel guilty for listening like I would do with some other podcasts! Thank you so much. Lisa.
