Spirit Within Review
If you liked Chicken Soup for the Soul, you'll love Breathe Deeply!
NAPRA Review
These are fairy tales the modern reader can easily identify with... just what the trapped and endangered child in each of us needs to help us find our own way out.
Breathe Deeply! Healing Stories For The Soul is a delightful collection of therapeutic and spiritually transforming fairy tales for adults and children (ages ten and older). Come explore the healing world of the imagination and meet magical characters like a little-boy prince who becomes addicted to his teddy bear and finds recovery with the help of a mysterious shaman, a young dolphin who finds healing from sexual trauma with the help of an angel, and a beast from the primordial ooze who must claim his own voice in order to remember who he really is:
BARBUDOM was an exceedingly large creature, covered with fur and scales and feathers. He had a dragon's tale, the body of a rhinoceros, and the head of a tiger. Long, sharp talons grew from his paws and fangs the size of sabers from his jaws.
As he emerged from the Glorious Mother's womb, BARBUDOM examined the unfamiliar surroundings. "Where am I?" he pondered aloud. "Why have I come to this strange place?"
The beast then looked at his own body. Suddenly BARBUDOM's face turned a pale shade of green, his lips a deep blue. "What's this ugly shell around me?"
