Welcome To My Glimmery World!

Hi, I’m Shelah! I started Glimmers in Chaos because I believe something simple but powerful:
Even in a complicated world, there are always moments of light.
They might appear in the garden while harvesting tomatoes, in the pages of a beautiful book, during a quiet yoga practice, or in a conversation that reminds you you’re not alone.
These small moments are easy to overlook, but they are often the ones that carry us forward.
This blog is a reminder to notice them.

How It All Began

I have been a life long reader and writer. In 2003 my own health crisis spurned me to begin sharing my story through blogging. I became a certified yoga instructor and a holistic nutrition specialist during my healing journey.

This blog is the space where I am finally at peace with the road I have traveled and where I can hope to inspire others to seek their own Glimmers and healing.

Get To Know Shelah

Tomatoes. Hands down. I also love looking out at the garden and seeing zinnias and sunflowers popping off their cheerful colors.

I can’t resist fantasy, romance, and a little quirky nonfiction – basically anything that sparks imagination or makes me feel deeply. If a book can make me laugh while reading it – It becomes a favorite. I also LOVE a good thriller with tons of twists and turns.

Definitely a big mug of chai tea if its chilly – iced coffee if its sweltering and sometimes…a book, my front porch and a yummy glass of wine is quite divine.

I am a “why choose” kinda gal. Mostly Ebooks as of late because we are trying to declutter life in a big way. I audio whenever in the car or out in the garden alone though.

Our world is pure chaos most days. When I get to roll out my mat, all of that melts away for me. It’s just me, my breath and my own beautiful and strong body.

A cozy chair with a soft blanket, twinkly lights, and a rainy day outside. That is the stuff that magic is made of.

Lots! My TBR grows every single day.
