Meditationen, die schön machen!? Zugegeben, das klingt schon ein wenig verrückt und Sie dürfen das Ganze auch sehr gerne und bewusst mit einer Portion Selbstironie und Belustigung angehen. Wahre Schönheit kommt von innen - natürlich können wir mit unserer inneren Einstellung aus großen Nasen keine kleinen, niedlichen Stupsnasen zaubern; kurze, dünne Haare werden nicht plötzlich lang und voll. Vielmehr geht es um die kleinen Nuancen, das gewisse Etwas, das den Unterschied ausmacht.
