ABOUT ME

Hi. I'm spiritual book editor Michael Ireland. Thanks for visiting my website. 

A life-long learner, I'm passionate about studying the relationship between the mystery traditions of antiquity and modern New Thought (aka "new age philosophy"). I guess I'm a bit of a spiritual geek. For over two decades, I've sought to bring the wisdom of the ancients into modern practice. An eternal student of all things esoteric, I am (IMHO) a fantastic spiritual book editor and a great resource for information on age-old philosophical traditions as well as modern topics in spirituality, mediumship, near-death studies, self-awareness, wellness, and mindfulness. If you are seeking metaphysical book editing, you are in the right place! 

I spent the better part of 15+ years in university libraries ... with my nose in musty old books like the ones pictured here (that's the Encyclopedia of Religion my hand is resting on). Along the way, I acquired three graduate degrees in religion and metaphysics. With a career background in the event, television, and film production industries, I combined my organizational skills and film savvy with my knowledge of the ancient world to develop several television programs and scripts about myth, mysticism, and magic. That is how I learned to write about spirituality - and the rest, as they say, is history. 

As an editor, I am focused, efficient, and respectful of your author's voice and writing style. 

I know the Mind Body Spirit genre well, and as noted, for decades I have dedicated myself to attaining knowledge about the metaphysical and spiritual worlds. I am trained in mediumship and the psychic arts, in several modalities of wellness and healing (see certifications below), and I have a wide knowledge base in holistic living issues: yoga, meditation, energy healing, vegetarian cooking - I have edited books on these topics and more. 

Want your spiritual book to be a change-maker? Want to make a difference in the world? Want to be a way-shower and write a self-help book that will support your readers in living more conscious, connected, creative lives? I will help you tap into your brilliance, imagination, and mastery, and inspire you to become the best writer you can be. 

The other day, a client called me "the woo-woo editor." I thought that had a nice ring to it. Sure, I'm a little bit "out there," but I'm also grounded in the real world, with a strong foundation in the facts and fictions, truths and realities, and data and details about where we human beings have been in religiosity and spirituality in history, right up to where we are placed in modern times. Call me a metaphysical nerd if you like ... a couple of clients call me "the Oracle," and another calls me "a walking spirituality dictionary." Those names resonate, too. With me you don't just get editing expertise. I know what I'm talking about when it comes to the Mind Body Spirit movement, the "New Age," "New Thought," and metaphysical topics. I've spent a lifetime studying religiosity and spirituality - and I've loved every minute of it. It's what I came here to do. And that, in itself, is woo-woo enough for now.
