The quiet magic of daily joy
Daily Glimmers is a pocketsized pick-me-up packed with over 1 000 tiny moments of delight. Because sometimes, all it takes is three seconds( and maybe a good cup of tea).
Bridget McNulty began her career as a magazine journalist after graduating summa cum laude with a degree in creative writing. She is the author of the novel Strange Nervous Laughter( 2008) and The Grief
Handbook( 2021). Following her diagnosis with diabetes, she co-founded the NGO Sweet Life, now South Africa’ s largest online diabetes platform.
Her latest book, Daily Glimmers, is a pocket-sized guide to discovering tiny moments of joy – one for every day of the year. With over 1 000“ glimmers” spread across 12 themed chapters, it offers gentle daily reminders to pause, notice and appreciate the small things that make life better.
We spoke to Bridget about how to find joy in the everyday, the science behind“ glimmers” and why a good hug still tops the list when times are tough.
