GEARING UP FOR SPOOKY TALES FALL/WINTER 2019

AREA: Within about an hour of Cushing,Oklahoma. If farther away, send me an email and we can 'talk'.

Age appropriate; story programs available for K - Adult.

CONTACT: marilynahudson@yahoo.com






Reasons To Tell Spooky Stories:

1) Such stories allow an individual of any age to engage in and express emotional responses.
2) Such stories often challenge thinking about fears and give occasion to exercise problem solving 
3) Such stories also serve as models of survival by sharpening skills in seeing and understanding situations.
4) Such stories can serve to remind people of all ages that "Flight" (running from danger or fears) can be smarter than "Fighting."
5) Such stories often serve to present how a protagonist outsmarted the trickster of the story.
6) Such stories have universally served to remind people that they are alive and to celebrate the thud of the heart, the rapid breath of surprise and the suspense of fear as healthy and useful assurances that they are ALIVE!
7) Such stories often serve to allow people to vicariously live through dangerous situations, recognize their fear responses and be safely returned to the normal world with valuable lessons about themselves and others.
