Dear Community,
As many of you know, I’ve been writing a book on Somatic Awakening®—a labor of love that I’ve poured my heart into for years. This book has the potential to transform lives, but I need your support to bring it to the world.
Balancing writing with single parenting, my healing practice, and teaching has been challenging, and my biggest breakthroughs have always come during focused writing retreats, where I can fully immerse myself in the work. Now, as I near the completion of this transformative book, an incredible opportunity has presented itself—a 5-week writing retreat in an intentional community in Hawaii. This retreat is the perfect space to move the book toward completion. However, with the unexpected challenge of moving, since the home I've been renting is going on the market, I am facing financial strain and almost canceled the retreat. Then, I realized I didn't have to do this alone and was guided to lean into my community and ask for support.
If this work has touched you, you believe in its message, or your heart is calling you to help, thank you for considering donating. Your generosity will make a profound difference in completing this vital book! Your donation, no matter the size, will directly support me in seizing this golden opportunity to finish the book, which I believe will be a powerful gift to the world. So whether your contribution is $10 or $100, any amount will help me bring this work to life. Thank you for your support and for being a part of this journey.
More Information on What Somatic Awakening® Is
**Somatic Awakening®** is a body of work with multiple aspects. But, at its heart, it is a transformative mind-body-spirit healing modality and spiritual practice that taps into the power of our Higher Self and the Divine to shift deep pain and suffering from any level of trauma within and transform it into profound healing, peace, and freedom.
When we fully align our awareness with this significant love and care from the Divine and bring it down into our frozen, traumatized contractions, energetic and physical symptoms dissolve. Our awakening and evolutionary journey is more fully activated, empowering us to step fully into our soul's essence and highest potential. And we are freed to live from our true nature.
Here is the breakdown of the costs of the retreat which make up my fundraising goal:
Rent at Intentional Community: $1400
Car Rental: $800
Food: $800
Airfare: $400
Monthly Bills: $800
Future Downtime to Complete the Book: $800
Total Request: $5,000
Thank you again for supporting this vital work so I can get it out to as many people as possible. I sense in my heart and soul that it has the ability to shift countless lives.
❤️❤️
In Love and Gratitude,
Melissa

Book and Publishing Plans
First, exciting news—I’ve completed 14 chapters of the book! Over half has already been edited at least once. Now, I’m focusing on refining the entire manuscript and creating a cohesive flow to bring it closer to completion. This is exactly what the upcoming writing retreat is for.
When I began this journey, spirit made it clear that this book needed to be published through a traditional publishing house to reach as many hearts and hands as possible. I’ve since connected with a literary agent, and she’s emphasized the importance of submitting a complete manuscript for the best chance of success.
Therefore, I need this dedicated writing time to make that happen since retreats have proved crucial for focused progress. The goal is to complete the manuscript and proposal and have it ready to pitch to publishers by spring.
If this project resonates with you, I would be so grateful for your support. Any donation, big or small, will help me take this huge leap toward publishing the book. And if you know anyone connected to publishing in the self-help or spiritual genre, I’d love to connect! ❤️
The Mystical and Spiritual Guidance Behind this Work
The vision for this book began years ago when I was awakened one night by a vision of Yeshua (Jesus) and Mary Magdalene. Since then, my life has been powerfully shaped by their teachings, with Mary Magdalene often playing a lead role in teaching me the multiple nuances of it.
This journey feels like a "divine commission"—one that’s been entrusted to me because it helped me find a way out of my own darkness. Now, I’ve been called to share it with others. It’s a soul mission that I’m giving my all to.
I sense this book is just the beginning—I see writing a series of books that will establish the foundation for an entire school of thought. Because Somatic Awakening® is not only a healing modality, it is also a spiritual practice with profound depth and transformative power.
This work is rooted in the mystical teachings of Christ and, after His death, the Christ family—wisdom that was suppressed long ago. This makes it all the more important to share, especially given its profound potential to touch and heal countless lives. Your support will play a crucial role in bringing this transformational message to the world!
Thank You! Thank you! Thank you for your donation...whatever the amount, it makes all the difference.✨✨✨
And, Thank You for being part of this journey. ❤️
My Heart is FULL of GRATITUDE and LOVE! ❤️
