Ready to Write Your Natural Health Self-Help Book?
Do you love Burt’s Bees, Reishi tea, yoga, meditation, Zen wisdom and organic foods? Do you believe in the body’s innate wisdom, living in harmony with nature and treating the whole self, mind-body and spirit? I do too. That's why I'm a book coach who works with writers like you. How can I help?
Foundation First.
Writing a book is complicated. I like to compare it to a clock or a watch. All of the gears need to mesh for it to keep good time.
You need:
-
A solid idea, one that only you can write from your unique point-of-view based on a problem (pain point) that you know how to solve.
-
To know who your ideal reader is.
-
A method, plan or approach that helps a reader feel better, mentally, emotionally or physically or maybe all three often based on what you do as a profession.
-
A book and chapter structure so that this can happen and your reader is transformed in a meaningful way.
-
Create content that’s reader-focused and engaging and full of actionable information. It also needs to be clear, read well, flow within and between chapters and makes sense.
This is not easy.
But if you establish a foundation first and create a clear roadmap (Need help with this? Take a look at the Natural Health Self-Help Book Roadmap) you'll be able to write your natural health self-help book faster and more easily.
Planting deep roots frees you up to focus on your message, not the mess that comes when you try to DIY. You'll grow and blossom as a writer naturally. You'll have a roadmap and know exactly what you need to do which means writing and revising (Need help with this? Take a look at the Natural Health Self-Help Write & Revise Book Camp) becomes much easier too.
Are You Stuck at the the Start? Lost in the Middle? Struggling to Finish?
You’re a natural health and wellness expert—a yoga teacher, herbalist, therapist, nutritionist, or integrative, alternative, or functional medicine health practitioner.
You want to share your knowledge, establish yourself as a thought leader,
and grow your brand.
But without the right guidance, direction, or plan, it’s easy to get stuck or rewrite your outline, book proposal or manuscript in circles.
You may have tried workshops, conferences, critique groups—but you’re still struggling.
This can waste time, money, and energy and turn your enthusiasm into stress, confusion, and overwhelm. This may be why 97 percent of writers never finish their books.

I Can Help You Become Part of the 3 Percent That Does.

Is it a Good Idea to Write a Book? Yes! Writing a nonfiction book is a smart move whether you're a yoga teacher, an herbalist, psychologist, doctor or any type of health and wellness expert. You can share what you know with a wider audience, establish yourself as a thought leader, make an impact and grow your brand. You Can Use Your Book: •To help readers transform their lives in a positive way. •To educate your clients or patients about your method, plan or program. Instead of giving each one handwritten instructions, you can give them a complete approach from A to Z. •To land interview requests about your subject matter whether it’s for print, radio, the internet, podcasts or TV. This further establishes you as an expert and builds your presence as a thought leader. •To supersize your content. You can use and repurpose book content for speeches, blog posts, articles, newsletters, in person and on-line courses. • To help you land speaking gigs. Defining who you are, what you do and what you believe in through your book makes it easier for people to find and book you. •To give in-person workshops in your hometown, at universities, associations, green companies, organizations. Bonus you can sell your book to participants too. •To book consulting gigs with people or organizations who want to know what you know and learn what you have to teach them. Maybe you can teach Buddhist stress reduction techniques or mindfulness meditation to accountants or lawyers or business people. •And of course, The Big Kahuna: To get booked for a Ted Talk and boost your visibility, way, way up!
