Introduction

Have you ever thought about publishing a book on mindfulness? If so, read on. We have created a program to help support you to write, edit and fully publish your book and share it with the world.

Did you know that you don’t need to be a great writer to publish a book?

Why? Because we have a whole team to support, offer tips, and fully edit your writing.

And did you know that once you have a published book, you are MUCH more likely to get opportunities to give talks or run workshops?

I would love to see all of our community of mindful practitioners to publish a book. And since I’ve already published over 10 books, my mission is now to support others to publish their books.

There’s absolutely nothing in the world that can match the feeling of receiving a copy of your own book in the post.

It is hard work, but the feeling of achievement is incredible - a feeling to be proud of.

If you would like to publish a book that’s in some way linked to mindfulness, ACT, self-compassion or wellbeing, you need to get in touch with me!

Every year, I choose 10 people whom I help to publish their first, professionally-edited book.

Why Join our Mindful Book Mastermind Program?

This Mindful Book Mastermind Program is designed to help offer clarity, accountability and full professional support to get your mindful book to become a reality in the world. 

For some of you, you may want to just publish a short ebook for kindle or paperback.

For others it may be a medium length paperback book and ebook available in print globally. And for some of you it may be a full length paperback book, ebook and audiobook. We have three options to suit everyone’s needs.

Who is this for?

This program is invite-only following a call with Shamash. It will be limited to about 10 people in the group selected to publish a book in this cohort to ensure we can offer the necessary support. We are looking for people whose values include the importance of mindfulness, compassion and wisdom.

What does the program consist of?

This mastermind is a group program with one-to-one coaching and mentoring. It will consist of Group Training sessions every two weeks over the 3 months and then ongoing support for up to a year as you finish your book.

The group sessions are:

  • Exploring how to gain clarity about what your project focuses on and offers

  • Ensuring your project is simple, fun and unique for the world

  • Making sure your project is aligned with your core strengths and values

  • Offering accountability to help keep you going and overcome your barriers

  • Embracing the principles of kaizen and the idea that done is better than perfect

  • Community building so you can link up and support each other as friends for life

  • Offering different levels of support in marketing your book

The program also publishes your book. So you get:

  • One to one calls with professional editor AND one to one calls with Shamash (value £3000)

  • Ongoing developmental feedback from professional editor (value £1000)

  • Full editing and proof-reading for your book (value over £1000)

  • Book cover design and professional typesetting (value £500)

  • Create required digital file and upload to your Amazon account globally (value £500)

  • Marketing of your book via our social media channels and book launch tips (value £1000)

  • You own your copyright fully and keep all of the profit that Amazon gives you (Value £5000). Note - most other publishers own the copyright, so this is a great benefit for you.

  • Your very own book available as kindle & paperback on Amazon worldwide (value £Priceless!)

FAQ

Do I have to write the book within 3 months?

No, you could take longer - you can take up to a year to write and get the book published.

Can I choose the basic or premium program, can I upgrade after a month or two if I decide I want to write more?

Yes, most likely that will be possible. 

Will this program be running again, as I can’t do this year?

It’s possible but not guaranteed.

I’m not a great writer. Can I still write a book?

I didn’t think I was a great writer, but the editing process helps with polishing your work. I believe, if you can talk and explain your concepts, you can write too. And editors can turn your work into something even better. Publishing your book is a team effort.

What if I want to find a publisher rather than do self-publishing?

Let us know. We can also offer help in writing a proposal and offer some help on finding a publisher with a different package.

Is there a money-back guarantee?

Yes. We offer a full 100% money-back guarantee in the first  7 days of starting the program, from the start date of the first session.

Do I have to come to all the live sessions?

No, but come to as many as you can. They are recorded, but we do mini group chats which you miss out on, so if you can come to live, do come. If you can’t, the recordings teach a lot, too. Please ensure you watch the recordings if you can’t make it to a live session, to catch up with the group.
