Children's book about fears, worries, sadness, and other unpleasant emotions: Our monsters are our feelings, which we do not like to feel and perceive as unpleasant and bad, like fear or sadness. We want to get rid of these feelings and be happy, but it is always good and evil in life. To have no more unpleasant feelings at all is not possible until we no longer live. "My monsters" is a story for all children and all adults. Because we all have monsters that accompany us. The book is a metaphor, inspired by an imagination exercise from acceptance and commitment therapy, packaged in a therapeutic picture story suitable for children and adults. About the author: Miriam Prätsch is a psychologist and behavioral psychotherapist for children and young people. She loves the creative work with the little patients and is convinced that picture books are suitable for children. Stories and metaphors help everyone, young and old, to better understand their difficulties, resources, and themselves.
