Glimmering: Healing in 21 Wild Swims - Paperback

by Megan Hayes (Author)

Glimmering is a story of connection - with ourselves, with nature, and with our past. Lyrical, luminous and sublime, it is a memoir haunted by trauma, but one that is ultimately hopeful and life-affirming.

As she swims in some of the world's most beautiful spots, from the wild waters of Wales to Australia's West Coast, Megan Hayes finds healing in water. She learns to notice 'glimmers': moments of connection, joy and safety which offer an antidote to trauma and build resilience. A journey of self-discovery, but also a celebration of wild places, Megan's story shows how even the smallest strokes can help us to heal.
