Fabling's Fables

By Zoe Klymiuk-Turner and VICTORIA FABLING

I share, through this book of fables, ideas of how to resolve challenges and limitations put in place by the ego. We can achieve literally anything - as children who believe in stories know.

When I work with clients I see the solution for them in exactly the same way. In effect, a story seems to come through space and time to transmit a personal message - and its language is childlike and fun. By not focusing at all on the symptoms, just the solution, the ego is by-passed, so the healing can be instant.

As Fabling is my name-sake, I derive enjoyment from writing in the true fable fashion - so I am open to receiving inspiration from non-human sources. People are always more relaxed to hear a truth about themselves when they can see an object, plant or animal behaving similarly. By using fables as a subtle teaching tool I know the message gets delivered because days later people will say - "I was thinking about that article" or "that story helped me, thank you." The most important fable in this book is, I believe, "Fire the Pirate!" because if the pirate or ego had already been fired, there wouldn't be the need to be a creative when delivering an important message.

I also wanted to share with readers, especially young adults, how important it is to protect their child-like sense of wonder and make it work for them, to keep life magical and up-beat. I have never understood why adults like to let go of their ability to sense what is not necessarily physical, when it is our invisible guides who often are the wisest. By exposing a taste of what my sessions look like, and how I dialogue with nature, I also share a method of living which is holistic, with no negative side effects.

Zoe Klymiuk-Turner

Victoria was raised in Yorkshire, England, experiencing first-hand the sophistication left behind by the Romans, and the laid-back attitude of more recent times. She has since lived in London, France and Canada. Africa holds a special place in her heart, for she feels it is, indeed, the heart of the world. Victoria allowed her career progression to unfold, seeing life as an adventure rather than a climb. She started working in the Fashion Industry because of her love for beauty and fascination with the predictive nature of style. By studying the clothes people wear it is possible to predict what is going to happen to society a couple of years down the road. The quest for a deeper level of communication led her to retrain as a Graphologist. Legal references come from the time when she defended peope in Court using evidence from their writing. During this time she discovered how important it is to use fewer, focused words and allow them to flow fluently. She then happened to meet an international match-maker, who hired her to do handwriting analysis for compatability reasons. She became extremely busy, as she also worked for the Mail on Sunday in London - finances were good, social life not so good. It then seemed an obvious choice to make a further career transition to that of healing and counselling, because she also had the background in psychology which came from her seven years of Graphology. Right now, she is in transition again, keenly interested to see where her ability to channel a story for anyone can take her. Victoria can be reached via her personal website which is www.holisticconsultant.net

Introduction

When I work with clients I see the solution for them in exactly the same way.

By not focusing at all on the symptoms, just the solution, the ego is by-passed, so the healing can be instant.

If you are inspired by these stories, I urge you to make a friend of William Wordsworth, who speaks so effortlessly of how to connect with the great fountain of wisdom all around us.

Not in entire forgetfulness, and not in utter nakedness, but trailing clouds of glory do we come from God who is our home. Heaven lies about us in our infancy!
