THANK YOU FOR HELPING OUT!
LET'S SPREAD THE RETREAT LOVE!


Embark on a journey of deep self-discovery from wherever you are with this soul-inspiring guided journal from bestselling author and artist Marianne Richmond and retreat facilitator and writer Aimee Hansen. Page after page, you are invited on an expansive and liberating journey back to your essential self. With eleven enlightening themes and 101 curated open-ended writing prompts, this magical journal is designed to nourish your spirit, spark presence and joy, and awaken your heart.
Unlike other writing journals, this book―infused with powerful themes, thoughtful quotes, and unique prompts―has been "retreat-tested" by women across hundreds of writing sessions before landing in these pages.
Ready to adventure towards a new sense of aliveness? This book is your invitation to a retreat, here and now.
Thank you so much for gifting the love of your support to this launch! With your help, we can make the heart-opening retreat magic poured into these pages go even farther!
HERE IS HOW YOU CAN HELP IN
THREE EASY STEPS!
ONE: CHECK OUT THE BOOK!
So many of you have ordered the journal! Thank you so much!
A little launch day surprise(!) was to find out there is an under-stocking issue at Amazon, and we sold out before launch day without knowing it. We've spoken with our publisher and the issue is being addressed, but takes time and patience. I appreciate your patience if you are waiting. Amazon currently says "temporarily out of stock" which means you can order, and they will ship your book as soon as they have it in. I hope our early orders increase anticipation of demand. ☺️
The book IS RIGHT NOW available in many Barnes & Noble and local bookstores. It's also immediately available at Barnes & Noble online or bookshop.org that supports local bookstores.
And if you have not ordered or are waiting on your book,
please enjoy this flip-book preview to give you a feel!
(Best viewed on tablet or desktop. Use the arrows and expand it to full size.)
IF YOU LIKE, ORDER YOUR COPY!
(Temporarily out of stock. You can still order and it will ship when stock is replenished.)
TW0: SHARE A REVIEW.
Orders and great reviews early on help to obtain a stronger ranking, so more people can find our book, giving momentum. Reviews also build credibility and encourage orders!
If you've been able to already take a little time with "This Book Is a Retreat" and enjoy it 😏, we would appreciate if you could take a few minutes to leave your kind words as a review on Amazon. No matter whether you bought the book there, you are still able to leave a review or simply leave a rating without words!
If you want to immerse some more before giving a review OR you are waiting on your ordered copy, I totally understand! We will be grateful to receive the review when it comes. 🩷
*(If you have a Goodreads account, I would love if you can also copy & share your review or simply a star rating there, too! - this is the link )*

THREE: HELP US SPREAD THE WORD.
For those who are happy to, sharing with your friends on
social media is a HUGE gift to Marianne and I. We appreciate however you feel moved to authentically do that. Below are ideas.
(Side note: I love you sharing, always. And if you are generous enough to support us, I want it to be impactful. So if you plan to share this only once, it may go further when the book is instantly available on Amazon again, which is likely to be many people's go-to online option. I will be letting you know as soon as we are there!)
