Manuscript Submissions

Namaste Publishing is a small but mighty traditional publishing agency. We publish in purposefully low quantities to ensure that the books with our imprint are those we believe are truly special and revolutionary.

We publish books in the MIND BODY SPIRIT, SELF HELP, SPIRITUALITY and WELLNESS genres for people of all ages. We are looking for books with positive, inspirational, original thoughts on topics that are current and immediately applicable to changing one’s life and the world for the better.

We are committed to publishing a diversity of voices and perspectives.

We are looking for authors who have an original point of view, are dedicated to their message and have built a community that will naturally support and amplify their work.

We work to build strong and lasting partnerships with our authors, taking great care through the editorial, design and marketing processes. We strategically support our authors in their dedication to the promotion of their titles.

We offer worldwide distribution and foreign subsidiary rights agency through our partners.

We are currently open to submissions.
