Lo importante en esta vida no lo ensen?an, pero cuando lo aprendes, no lo olvidas. Siempre he crei?do que las palabras son necesarias para sanarte. En este libro he intentado depositar toda mi experiencia y lo que he aprendido de mucha gente que ha decidido contarme su sabiduri?a: los secretos y la energi?a que se desprende de los amarillos con los que he coincidido en mi vida. Quisiera que este libro fuera un botiqui?n de soplos energe?ticos para muchos males y, sobre todo, para el alma. Lo he escrito con la esperanza de que alguno de estos soplos os active la ilusio?n, os aleje de ese problema que ahora tene?is y os devuelva a la senda de la alegri?a si os encontra?is en ese duro instante vital. Tambie?n tengo claro que quiero que este libro este? ilustrado, tenga bellos dibujos que os lleven de un soplo a otro. Soplad y disfrutad. Albert Espinosa.
