Finding the Glimmers
It's easy to focus on the challenges and difficulties in life, especially when we're feeling stressed or overwhelmed. But what if we shifted our attention to the glimmers—the brief, positive moments that spark feelings of joy, safety, and hope? These micro-moments of positivity can offer powerful tools for emotional regulation, helping us thrive rather than just survive. Join The Ohio State University Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for a 30-minute webinar where you'll learn practical strategies to spot and embrace more of the glimmers in your life. Discover how these moments can make a big difference in your well-being and create more opportunities for emotional resilience.
