Fairy Tales Can Change Your Life

A unique and empowering guide to using the symbolism, themes and archetypes in fairytales to improve your life using practical, creative exercises.

Fight your fears, gain confidence and unlock your future using the power of fairy tales

 We first engage with fairy tales in childhood and they never leave us. From the "rescuer" Prince Charming to the scary, shapeshifting wolf in Little Red Riding Hood, the characters, symbolism and narratives in these stories are embedded deep within our psyches.

 This book offers a whole host of tips, creative activities and inspiring illustrations to help you draw on the latent power of fairy tales and apply their magic to your everyday life. These include storyboarding your own fairy tale to boost your imagination, devising a quest to build energy and confidence, and identifying your inner hero to improve your problem solving.Alison Davies is an author, columnist, freelance writer and professional storyteller.
