Welcome to Insights at the Edge, produced by Sounds True.

My name's Tammy Simon. I'm the founder of Sounds True, and I'd love to take a moment to introduce you to the new Sounds True Foundation.

The Sounds True Foundation is dedicated to creating a wiser and kinder world by making transformational education widely available.

We want everyone to have access to transformational tools, such as mindfulness,

emotional awareness, and self-compassion, regardless of financial, social, or physical challenges.

The Sounds True Foundation is a nonprofit dedicated to providing these transformational tools

to communities in need, including at-risk youth, prisoners, veterans, and those in developing countries.

Today, my guest is Heidi Smith.

Heidi is a psychosomatic therapist, flower essence practitioner, and registered herbalist.

It sounds true, Heidi has written a beautiful new book called The Bloom Book, a flower essence guide to cosmic balance.

The Bloom Book offers a comprehensive guide for working with flower essences in order to bring

about healing, transformation, and even to help us in the process of awakening, both at a personal

level and a collective level.

In this conversation with Heidi Smith, I felt surprised, as I did when I read the bloom book

about how flowers can make themselves known to us if we're

open to it. So I suggest with a lot of openness, listen to Heidi Smith talk about flower

essences and her new book, The Bloom Book.

Heidi, you write in the Bloom Book that you were given an assignment by the universe to bring people to the flowers.

That's a big assignment, interesting assignment. I think with the Bloom Book, you're doing it.
