The stories in this book build bridges that lead from tension to a pleasantly relaxed and open state of being. These bridges form delightfully easily and reliably. This is also due to the unique twist that each story brings. Benches gather feelings, sense and nonsense are overheard in conversation, and a fish dreams of flying. For the reader or listener, this different approach to the world has a special effect. The perspective with which one usually views things is subtly shifted, and the ordinary takes on new connections. Inner attitudes that lead to tension, rob joy, cloud imagination, and restrict health are loosened. This is multifacetedly soothing and helpful, fostering one's own creativity and stimulating inner healing powers - with each story read, a little more.
