Glimmers, Pings & Nudges

We used to call them nudes from the universe, then pings and now glimmers. I prefer glimmers, it feels connected to shimmers which feels a little pretty and sweet.

How do we notice these hints or nudges from the universe, or the conductor (thank you to Edo & Jo <3 for this term) when we are so busy adulting?

We start a practice. Right, are you in? How fun!

I like to review the day, mentally, and find things/people/places/songs anything that offers me a hint of direction. That’s not to say I’m aimless. But I like life to feel extra. That there’s a hint of charm and enchantment in this beautiful life we’ve been given.

Here’s some ideas to get you started:

  • Review yesterday morning, what did you enjoy the most?

  • What songs are you loving and what about them draws you in?

  • Whats the colour of your favourite morning cup/mug?

  • Where do you buy your coffee & why? Is it the cute baristas way of making you laugh, is it the view, what draws you here?

  • What are you favourite flowers? Why? Is it the colours of the petals that reminds you of your favourite Aunties table cloth?

The smell of Voilets reminds me of one of the jobs my mum loved the most. She worked in the Stand Arcade in a small perfumery called From Paris With Love. I remember when she got dressed to go to work there that she looked and felt a million bucks. She was in her lane.

So just begin to notice.

Warning: this exercise can awaken feelings of gratitude and wonder. And arent they beautiful values and feelings to walk through this life with.

Already I feel a little lighter and happier. Oh the magic of language.
