Goodreads asked Ruth Thompson:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Ruth Thompson The idea for "A Heart for Healing" came from my experience as a holistic health practitioner. I wanted to tell a story that would dramatize the issues: the lack of respect and relegation to the fringes of health care even though holistic health is all prevention and natural healing. I wanted to entertain readers while educating them on the importance of a holistic health approach to maintaining wellness. The woman's story addresses family life, marriage, motherhood, and career - aspects of life that many women deal with every day.
