Today, we're diving into the heart of why you're here - your motivation and purpose for writing a healing book. Understanding your 'why' is crucial. It's the fuel that'll keep you going when writer's block hits or self-doubt creeps in. So, grab your journal, and let's explore what's calling you to share your story. Before we start typing away, it's important to connect with our 'why'. This understanding will be your compass throughout your writing journey, keeping you focused and inspired. So, grab your journal, and let's explore five key questions together: 1. Why do you want to write a healing book? 2. How do you think writing this book will change your life? 3. What aspects of your healing journey do you feel most compelled to share? 4. What transformation do you hope to inspire in your readers? 5. How does writing this book align with your personal values? Take a moment to jot down your initial thoughts. Remember, there are no right or wrong answers here. Your unique perspective is what will make your book powerful and impactful. Now, let's dive into our first question: Why do you want to write a healing book? This isn't just about putting words on paper. It's about uncovering the deep-seated desire that's pushing you to share your story. Maybe it's to help others avoid the pain you experienced. Perhaps it's to give hope to those still struggling. Or it could be part of your own healing journey. Whatever your reason, acknowledging it is powerful. It'll guide your writing and infuse your words with authenticity. So, take a moment. Close your eyes. Ask yourself: What's driving me to share my healing journey? The answer might surprise you - and it'll definitely inspire you. Remember, your 'why' is your compass. It'll keep you on track when the writing gets tough. So, embrace it, celebrate it, and let it fuel your writing journey!

As writers and soon-to-be authors, we often start with a clear vision of what we want from our books. This focus is invaluable – it guides our writing, shapes our content, and helps us stay on track. But here's the paradox: while having a goal is important, being too attached to specific outcomes can stifle our creativity and authenticity. It does mine. I love a plan, and I also love to let it go! I've learned that the magic happens when we find the balance between direction and flexibility. Yes, have a destination in mind, but be open to unexpected detours. These often lead to the most profound insights and connections with our readers. This happened to me on Tuesday. It's when I teach The Healing Book Project students. This week, the topic was, "What kind of book should you write?" Here's a cut-down version of that. https://lnkd.in/ew4FnHpc I had a book planned around writing to heal, and somehow, I was 'persuaded' to write a fictional self-help book. All I said was I love this idea, and bam, I'm doing it... This is way out of my comfort zone, I can tell you. I can write self-help, and I have written fiction, but not much, and I am very much attached to the things I like to write... And the rewards can be surprising – new skills, fresh perspectives, and unexpected breakthroughs often emerge when we dare to venture beyond our usual boundaries. So, if I can let go of attachment, step out of my comfort zone and go with the flow... So can you. You can, I promise. So, come with me and let's embrace this delicate dance: Set your intentions, then let go. Trust your process, your heart and the journey itself. Have you ever surprised yourself by stepping out of your writing comfort zone? What did you learn? *** The Healing Book Project enrolment for 2024 closes soon.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻'𝘁 𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗮 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸? 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻! Over the last six weeks, I haven't written a book per se, but I've created a series of workbooks for the Awakened Spirit course. This morning, I tallied up my word count: 36,543 words, with one more week to go! Yes, I had existing content, but I also created new material. The process wasn't gruelling because I enjoyed generating ideas and writing the content. Here's a recent example of how writing can flow: • On Saturday, I thought today's workbook was complete. • This morning, while journaling, new ideas emerged. • I made significant changes and incorporated these fresh thoughts at the last minute. • It flowed because it felt like these were the right words. While this isn't a healing book, nor am I writing about personal experiences, the principle remains: when you're in flow and writing what feels right, the words will come. The Healing Book Project This project offers a safe space to explore your writing at your own pace, with support for both the flowing and challenging moments. Enrollment opens on September 19th. Whether you're writing about healing or any other topic, the key is to start and let your ideas flow. The Healing Book Project is here to guide you on that journey. See you there! https://lnkd.in/dETE4zQg #Writing #WriteaBook #WritingToHeal

𝗪𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵? It's time to yank it off and break the silence. Do you have a story you've lived with for years that weighs you down? It's time to let it out, and get the liberation you need to move on. Your voice can be heard throughout the world in your little corner through your book. Your book can launch you into unimaginable realms and liberate thousands you might never meet. Sometimes, all the push you need is to see others speaking out. I'm in awe of what is happening with this Post2Book Program. I started not knowing where I was going, and now it's becoming something bigger than me. These two books humbled me. As I engaged with the professional editing of these books by two authors from Post2Book Cohort 2, Rebecca O. Abayomi and Adenike Akiogbe, I had several bouts of emotions. And I kept asking myself, What if this initiative didn't come up? What if these two held back from taking the chance to write these books? Many would be deprived. These books are ready for launch. Watch out for their release. The titles are powerful, yet they don't do enough justice to the content. 🙇 Post2Book is about turning your posts, either your expertise or experience, into a short, impactful, and edutaining book to either establish authority or liberate others. More like, if you have conveniently put up 20 posts on LinkedIn before, then you can conveniently have a 10-chapter short book. Cohort 3 kicks off on the 1st of April, 2024. Limited slots available. It's not about the crowd; it's about the quality. You will write your book and publish it. Details in my bio. Send me a DM for the available discount today. I am Boluwatife, the best eagle-eyed editor and "edutaining" book-writing coach on the internet. Period.📌 #eagleeyededitor #mindmapping #bookwriting #post2book

Embodying the Collective Story Have you ever felt like there’s a story within you that’s not just your own—a story that pulses with something universal, something timeless? As I guide purpose-led souls through the writing process, I often witness this powerful phenomenon: a “collective energy” emerging, transcending the personal story. This is a field where individual voices merge with deeper, archetypal energies that want to be expressed and recognised. It’s in this magical space, that your story holds the potential to inspire, to heal, and to transform not just yourself but anyone who resonates with it. We have another Solo Book Incubator starting next week. This powerful program is more than a writing course. It’s a sacred container where this collective energy can be brought forward, where you’re encouraged to tap into universal themes that are just waiting to be shared. Here, you’ll find a supportive community, expert guidance, and the tools to draw on those deeper layers of consciousness that can bring your book to life in ways you might not have even imagined. If you feel called to explore this potent blend of personal story, universal truth, and strategic positioning, join us. Your book might be just the catalyst the world needs right now. DM me or comment “COLLECTIVE ENERGY” below to learn more about the Solo Book Incubator and bring your message into form. Let’s inspire healing and empowerment, one person, one story, and book at a time. #HilleHousePublishing #author #writing #publishing #BookCoaching

Before I discovered the healing power of writing, I was: ❌Struggling with overwhelming emotion. ❌Feeling disconnected from my inner self. ❌Stuck in a cycle of negative thoughts. After embracing writing as a healing practice, I: ✅Process my feelings more effectively. ✅Connect deeply with my true self. ✅Find clarity and peace through the written word. Whether dealing with personal challenges, seeking self-discovery, or simply wanting to express yourself. This powerful tool can help you heal and grow. Will you? Most self-help books and courses sell for $100 or more. I provide insights and prompts for free, just as valuable as those paid resources, and it also includes a guide on how to start your healing writing journey. ---------------------------------------------------------- Hit the “Try my Free Newsletter" Free Expressive Writing Course (5 min) https://lnkd.in/gryjuQ78 Free Guide on Writing as a Self-care https://lnkd.in/gmQ3A83x

Waking up in the middle of the night, writing something and forgetting about it, until you receive a notification that someone liked your post. So you have to read what you write to make sure, well... that it isn't something a little too saucy! 😉 🔥 Welcome to the life of a writer! 😄 ✨Read on to discover a 3am-ish sub-conscious download ✨ However you imagine people reading your book, One thing is for sure, if you don't write it, they won't be able to read it. You can put off the writing all you like, just like you can put off the diet until tomorrow, Or start running when you've got the right gear, or when the moon aligns with your energy cycle. We can all say a lot of things, and EVERY time someone finds out I'm an author, do they tell me they've got plenty of stories they could tell me, or how I should write their story. The thing is though, and we all know there's a thing, writing a book is a healing journey only you can take for yourself. You can have others write it for you, you can delay the inevitable, but as soon as you make the conscious choice to #writethebook you will find everything aligning for you. If you are still in doubt, then things won't align. It's simply the way of the #quantumrealm, the #lawofattraction and the way in which things shift inside of us that focuses our attention of the mind into taking action. You can be ruled by fear, or even scarcity. You can create reasons, excuses or tell yourself lies about what you really want, but until you accept that these elements are #selfsabotage, then it won't just be the book you've delayed #writing. It'll also be delaying joy, satisfaction, #personalgrowth, excitement, new income streams, untold opportunities, gratitude for those around you on a whole new level, as well as the gift of seeing who you truly are, Because trust me, #writingabook really shows us who we are and what we're resisting - even if it's fiction! So what are you waiting for? Sign up for the #7weekauthorcourse today and start building the plane on the way up!
