We are all a little like Little Red Riding Hood. One day, we step outside the door of our parents' home and find ourselves in a dangerous forest—the realm of adulthood, where there is no room for childhood expectations or infantile fantasies. Gestalt psychologist Yulia Pirumova, guided by the fairy-tale archetype, invites you to take a journey to yourself. Go through crises and find inner strength. Transform past trauma into the happiness of living in the present. The author's methods and exercises will help you: Stop comparing yourself to others and develop an inner compass Accept personal crises as a natural condition for the transition to a new stage in life Stop pleasing others and cultivate the courage to be disliked Learn to protect your uniqueness and vulnerability Work through the mistakes of the past and find your own identity
