In the tradition of The Tao of Pooh, a noted therapist shows how the wisdom of a children's classic can lead to a life of love, fulfillment and purpose. Who wouldn't want to go back to when life was simple and a stuffed animal could fix all your problems? Botox parties. Extreme Makeovers. "Reality" TV. These are just some examples of how we have lost sight of something so basic yet so essential to true happiness: On our way to becoming status-seeking super-humans, we forgot how to be Real. This charming gift book guides readers down a simple path to reclaiming joy, fulfillment and individuality, using an unconventional source-the children's classic The Velveteen Rabbit. By sharing the timeless insights and poignant quotes from the popular children's book, the author identifies 10 keys to becoming Real, with the promise that when you become Real you will love and be loved with all your strengths, weakness, faults and gifts. As the Skin Horse explains to the Velveteen Rabbit: "Real isn't how you are made . . . It's a thing that happens to you. . . . Generally by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes droop and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But those things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand." Destined to be a classic in its own right, The Velveteen Principles delivers a simple yet profound message for the ages.
Customer Review: Transformational Awareness
This is an excellent resource for people desirous of personal transformation. The writer makes a powerful and thought provoking case for becoming "real". As you read this book, you will discover the areas in your life where self-objectifying has been the order of the day as well as the areas in which you have suppressed the true desires and dreams that are meant to be fulfilling in life and bring true happiness, peace and contentment. The book is not full of technical terms but packs a powerful punch as it awakens situational awareness and highlights poor mental-models that have blocked the progression of becoming real.
Customer Review: Not a childrens book
Very interesting book we used in college. Opens your eyes and very thought provoking. Read this and start your journey to be Real.
