Sounds True was founded in 1985 by Tami Simon with a clear mission: to disseminate spiritual wisdom. Since starting out as a project with one woman and her tape recorder, we have grown into a multimedia publishing company with more than 110 employees, a library of more than 3,000 titles featuring some of the leading teachers and visionaries of our time, and an ever-expanding family of beloved customers from across the world. In more than three decades of growth, change, and evolution, Sounds True has maintained its focus on its overriding purpose, as summed up in our Mission Statement.

There is a kind of love that does not try to hold things together. Instead it holds space for whatever is happening, even the parts that hurt. It lets both people stay soft instead of needing everything to be okay. 🌿

We spend so much energy trying to silence the parts of us that feel inconvenient or messy. Yet those very parts often carry wisdom of their own. When we stop pushing against them, they start working with us instead of against us. ❤️

The heart is not just a feeling center. It is a wisdom center. And when we learn to come home to it, to listen to what it knows before the mind catches up, something in us begins to live with more clarity, more courage, and more genuine connection. 🕊️
Love is not just an emotion. It is a way of navigating the world.

Sometimes presence begins with simply noticing what is already here. Rather than searching for a special moment, we can let ordinary experiences draw our attention back to life as it is unfolding.
Even the smallest moments can open the door to deeper awareness. ❤️

Happiness isn’t something to chase—it’s something to notice. It appears in ordinary moments, asking only for our awareness. When we learn to pause and recognize the contentment already here, joy is no longer a destination but a way of seeing.

There’s a quiet freedom that comes from loosening our grip on how life “should” have turned out. When we release our attachments to specific outcomes, the mind softens, and new possibilities emerge—often greater than we imagined. Sometimes the path opens not by pushing forward, but by letting go.

So many of us search for love outside ourselves, forgetting that the truest companionship comes from within. No one else can fully know our inner world—but we can learn to love ourselves deeply, tenderly, in all states of being. When we offer ourselves this love, we join the great current of human longing and discover that, in truth, we are never alone.
