Why we care about the ‘E’
With recent news of companies, including SHRM, taking out the ‘E’ from their DEI efforts, I’d like to reaffirm our commitment at TOSHA Coaching and Consulting to the full acronym of JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion). We value the wholeness of what this represents in our work and that of our clients too.
Healing our nervous system with ‘Glimmers’
Whilst ‘Triggers’ are widely understood, few people know about their opposite: Glimmers. Small moments when our nervous system is in a position of connection and regulation. When we feel a sense of ease, joy, peace, safety, relaxation, calm or wonder - even if for a fleeting moment. Our brains have a natural tendency to look for the bad. Being intentional about looking for glimmers can begin to shape our system and have a beneficial impact on our mind and health.
