WHAT THIS BOOK’S ABOUT Sometimes we’re so busy chattering away to ourselves in our head, that we dorft notice how quiet It Is underneath. We forget to feel how good It feels inside – how good It Is to be ALVE. Sometimes we can forget for so long that we tie ourselves up In knots and then things start to feel uncomfortable. Most of the time we’re doing things or learning things – or talking. But it’s also Important to know what’s going on inside us as well as around us. This is how we start to make : friends with ourselves. Have you heard of meditation? Maybe you know some grown-ups who meditate, or who go to classes – maybe your parents do. Well – meditation is a complicated word for making friends with ourselves, by learning to listen to the beautiful silence inside us. If you get a notebook and a drawing pad to go with this book, you can put down anything special that you notice or anything you want to remember that happens when you do the exercises. Some of these you can try with one or a group of friends, but always try all of them on your own as well. There are many wonderful things you can do to get to know yourself better and to become really good friends with yourself. In fact everything we do can become part of our project. This book Is to help you make a start.
