A fairy tale gives a child more valuable experience than a simple conversation or an adult's guidance. “In a certain kingdom, in a certain state …” - remember how in childhood, in the evenings, with these words our journey into the fairy-tale world began. And we, climbing with our feet on the sofa, clung to our mother or grandmother, hardly breathing so as not to miss anything, listened … A fairy tale gives a child more valuable experience than an ordinary conversation or an adult's instruction. “In a certain kingdom, in a certain state …” - remember how in childhood, in the evenings, with these words our journey into the fairy-tale world began.

And together with Gerda they tried to melt Kai's icy heart; together with Cinderella, they dreamed of going to the ball and looked forward to the appearance of the Godmother; together with the heroine of the fairy tale "The Scarlet Flower" they tried to fall in love with the shaggy and terrible monster. And they asked to tell the fairy tale they liked again and again.
Today, many parents do not read fairy tales to their children - and there is not enough time, and life now is such that there is no time for magic to teach a child to survive in this complex world. And if you ask modern children what their favorite fairy tale is, most will remain silent, and instead of the name of their favorite fairytale hero they will name a computer game character …
Meanwhile, being born in time immemorial, earlier than many other genres of oral and written literature, having absorbed all the folk wisdom and the dream of a harmonious, creative life, a fairy tale gives a child more valuable experience than an ordinary conversation or an adult's instruction. Thanks to her, the child learns that life is like a journey full of unexpected discoveries and adventures; that at any moment the world can speak, because it is alive, and therefore it is important to be careful and sensitive to everything around. Thanks to the fairy tale, the child understands that the path of life is difficult, that it is not simple and smooth; that every challenge helps you become stronger; that the most valuable thing is earned by labor, and that which is obtained easily and for nothing, can just as quickly disappear. The tale hints that a loving heart, not a calculating mind, helps to make the right choice. And promptsthat good always wins, and justice is more effective than brute force. A fairy tale teaches a child to learn, to know himself and the world around him.
Therefore, children sometimes listen to the same fairy tale for several weeks in a row, not allowing them to change or skip even a word. (It is a pity that adults, tired of repeating, shrug off such requests.) So, it is this fairy tale that, right now, helps the child understand something important for him, learn the necessary models of behavior, and solve the next life task. Then he leaves this tale as a step and moves on.
Meeting with a fairy tale for children is the greatest necessity and source of joy. It is no coincidence, perhaps, that the most ancient method of practical psychology in human history and one of the youngest methods in modern scientific practice - fairy tale therapy - was revived several years ago. This word makes some people smile, others surprise. Some consider it to be an auxiliary tool in the work of psychologists, others perceive it as a naive system and nothing more, but after learning better, they discover the endless possibilities of fairy tale therapy, healing the soul with fairy tales.
The fact is that vivid images of fairy tales fill the unconscious of a person, becoming a kind of repository of all kinds of life situations, ways of communicating with other people, solving life problems and implementing plans.
But a child will not be able to use these treasures if no one discussed fairy tales with him, but only read or told. (But even simple listening is good - it gives at least some protection and support in life.) In order for the knowledge about the world that a fairy tale gives to come to life, an adult must find an opportunity to discuss what he has read with a child, compare fairy stories with stories from life. So the baby learns to act consciously, see the cause-and-effect relationships between events, reflect on his mission, discover his abilities and talents. “Is it important for the child? Isn't it too early for him to think about such "serious" things? - reflects one of the authors of the method. - It is important and not early. Moreover, later it may be too late. If we look around, we will see what the destructive actions of an adult have led to,obsessed with the illusion of his own impunity, denying the "fairytale" laws of interaction with the World. Maybe fairy tales are both "trifles" and "frivolity", but they do not destroy the world around them, but appeal to the bright creative sides of the human soul. Therefore, fairy tale therapy with children, adolescents and adults today is especially relevant, if only because it is necessary to stop the avalanche of destruction produced by man, and this can be done only when a person returns to his original, "fabulous" perception of the world. "adolescents and adults today is especially relevant. If only because it is necessary to stop the avalanche of human destruction.

Until the 17th-18th centuries, fairy tales and stories were told not only to children, but also to adults - in winter it was almost the main entertainment for the villagers. Back then, fairy tales were treated seriously and reverently. Listening to fairy tales was a spiritual need.
Wisdom, born in distant, distant times, has not lost its relevance to this day. Modern adults, burdened with conventions, stereotypes of logical thinking and "reasonable" lifestyle, need fairy tales no less than children. The fairy tale removes all this plaque, and it turns out that a child also lives in the soul of an adult - open, sincere, amazed. Only he hid behind high mountains, beyond the distant seas, hid behind seven doors, behind seven locks.
Maybe it's time to let it manifest? Unleash creativity and see the world in a new way? It doesn't matter how old we are, because we, as children, are also waiting for a miracle. We believe that someone wise will tell you how to learn to overcome difficulties and resolve conflicts; how to become happy, needed, to find true friends and helpers. And the answer, like a thousand years ago, can be given by a fairy tale.
Reflection on the theme of fairy tales
Nobody thinks much about fairy tales. And it follows. It provides an archetypal model of behavior - personal and social.
I won't go into too much detail, I'll just skim through the tops. I can't remember everything at once. Everyone will be happy to add.
Each nation has its own fairy tales. But they all agree on the properties of certain characters. About the properties of the spirits that are described in fairy tales - Divas, Devas, Gina … But the listed characters are from Indian, Turkish and Azerbaijani, as well as Arabian fairy tales. Very extensive geography. But - everything fits together to the smallest detail. And this is not a copy of the same thing - the cultures are completely different.
Further - the tale of the Scarlet Flower. One of the key messages is a model of behavior with a man! You take the Lesnoye Monster - you become attached to the animal, you begin to understand that not everything is as bad as outside, you take care of him, you try to see in him only what is hidden, only his best sides, you fall in love until self-sacrifice and … you get your personal Prince! Well, all the treasures at his feet, as compensation for moral damage.
But from this place in more detail … I almost forgot about "treasures at the feet." But the majority do not see anything in a fairy tale at all. Or they take only a part of the model, from the moment … "treasures to the feet." This is how all our Rublevka lives … All of them have Monsters with treasures, but no one fools to look at the princes in them … that's how all these women and oligarchs do not live. Although oligarchs are not bad, well, or not all of them … but in the Philharmonic, something needs to be corrected. About falling in love to self-sacrifice … and this is precisely the key to turning the Beast into a Prince.
Further, the reverse model - until you kiss all the toads … you will not find a worthy woman. True, in life, not all toads turn out to be Princess-Frogs.
Vasilisa the Beautiful is generally a model of a universal ideal wife. When necessary, you can shove it into the box, or she hides herself … Ie. to be silent when necessary, he knows how and knows his place. He knows how to do all the work. Silently and quickly.
If you have to go out with her - well, here she will dance and wave her sleeve - you will have both swans and a lake. Those. entertain guests in a state. And, please note, she does not go to receptions in frog skin - she strained and wore it herself - and that's it - overnight! And her transport is also all right (apparently, the woman is independent and provides for herself - she has enough for a chariot, not a box. Well, but about the fact that the beauty and all the ladies present in the belt without looking …
Little boys should learn this tale by heart, and not watch Sailor-Moun with painted girls and grimaces on their faces. After all, colored SuperWomen from modern cartoons destroy the brain of children. Children are very sensitive to colors, up to 7-9 years old. And bright cartoons of aggressive content shape their future models of social behavior.
Such a boy will look for a girl who looks like Barbie as a wife. Further no comment.
And the heroines of cartoons in our childhood - they sang, danced, did not have any vivid details, there were never any magnificent forms and faces distorted by emotions. Remember Thumbelina, Alyonushka from "The Scarlet Flower", Goldilocks. A dingy white sundress, a meek facial expression … Can you imagine them with an active, angry grimace? And they save all sorts of chicks and bunnies.
But the Snow Queen - ladies with a clearly dominant behavior - had obvious problems with facial expressions, and now every female character has such a face. Moreover, he is a positive character. Can you imagine what the boy will look for as a wife then ?!
What we see now: a normal beautiful Princess turns into a Green Giantess (to stay with Shrek). And he begins … to kill. She strangled the snake, cooked the toad … In the cartoons of our childhood, women were not killed. They took care of flowers, bunny chicks … Healed. They helped. In modern ones, they shout, run and shoot. Those. with intent to kill. Feel the difference in social behavior. This is how children are coded now.

The eyes are the window to the soul. You can kill with a look. And no one ever wondered what part of reality these phraseological units reflect?
Therefore, healers avoid eye contact with infusion patients. Until they get rid of it.
If you look into the eyes of Evil, it will also look into your eyes. The result is not predictable. But in any case, nothing good.
From the looks of some people cringe. Eyes are the mirror of the Soul. If it is. And what looks at you if there is no Soul there? As you know, a holy place is never empty. Filled with the opposite.
And here comes a series of "fairy-tale" heroes … Viy, who was better off not looking in the eyes … Basilisk, Medusa Gorgon, etc. And these are all characters from fairy tales of different peoples. And the problem is raised one and the same. So - there is something …
And yet - on all Orthodox icons, as well as on Catholic canvases of religious content, evil spirits are never portrayed otherwise than from behind or in profile. And never - in full face. Never. And Judas is portrayed in the same way. And all the portraits of traitors were painted in the same way - all the famous characters in our history. Godunov, etc.
The power of the gaze is the energy that we transfer to each other. And a lot more can be added, but it is difficult to prove, tk. difficult to verify (Vorobyevsky has it in Judiada about this).
I am sure that the look can format the environment. It is with this that the "evil eye" effect is connected. This is how a look (probably) conveys a negative energy matrix.
And therefore (apparently) when people close their eyes for a second, the contact is interrupted - and the vision disappears. This is me about cases when something seems.
