Update #7 - Roots of Consciousness Update - End of campaign, fancy new website! July 24, 2017

Hi all,

I hope everyone's week is off to a great start! This is just a quick update to let you know that the Roots of Consciousness campaign is officially over, what! Needless to say, it was an overwhelming success, winning the MAPS Up the Rabbit Hole contest and reaching over 600 pre-orders, resulting in the opportunity to work with a traditional publisher whose message and mission will help this book spread its message in the most effective and productive way possible. 

So I wanted to send a BIG THANK YOU to YOU for helping this campaign shoot past its goal in a fiery blaze of love and light! Whether it was a stimulating conversation about the nature of reality and a probabilistic universe, a thought-provoking discussion about different paradigms of spirituality, a word of support or encouragement, your own inspiring story of healing and transformation, or any support for my book or campaign along the way, THANK YOU. 

Some fun stats from the campaign:
Pre-Orders: 608
Amount Funded: $15,702 (!!)
Publishers Interested: 12
Times Melissa has jumped up and down from excitement: 462 (approx.)

....In conclusion,  I wanted to let you know we will be migrating over to a fancy new website for future updates and information and other fun things: www.rootsofconsciousness.net - I tried to make the pop-up as non-annoying as possible, while still making it really easy to sign up for the newsletter there. I'd love if you subscribed, who knows how we can propel these ideas forward and work together towards global healing and world peace?! As the great musician Nahko (and Medicine for the People) once said, "Make the movement move!"

The more knowledge we can share, the better we can understand our connection to ourselves and this planet, the more we can empower each other to be our own healers, and what the hell – we could probably save the world.

Let's gooo!!!
Love and light always,
Melissa
