Where's My Teddy? (Eddy and the Bear)

Product Information

Our Personality creates its own dream from the deep-seated beliefs and emotions it harbours; a dream that can be full of emotional distress, over-thinking and the constant investment in a future which never quite delivers on the belief: ‘When I get this I’ll be happy.’ The Story of ‘You’ suggests it’s possible to wake up out of that dream. When that happens, a whole new adventure begins in a life beyond the Personality."

Eddie was afraid of the “scary” forest, and it was not necessarily safe for him to be there all alone. The bear lives in the forest, and for the bear; it is a safe place.
