A Personal Choice

June 14, 2010

The recent post about being swept under by a range of emotions has prompted me to remind people of the value of Women Who Run With The Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estes. This is a book that is on a shelf near my bed. My copy is showing the signs of being much loved and much read.

Women Who Run With The Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estes. Another work by Estes, Warming the Stone Child, is well worth considering as well.

Personally I found that Estes led me to Jung and to a study of many of the stories that shape our lives. Baba Yaga is one that keeps appearing. There is a fascinating path to follow, with journal in hand to record the thoughts and feelings that rise up to confront one.

  1. Luis gave me a copy of this years ago- its a wonderful read.


  2. I ended up with two copies, one of which I am thinking of altering ….


    • Altering – what a fabulous idea – I might have to see if I can find a copy at the second hand shop!


  3. Thanks for reminding of that powerful book – it might be time for me to re-read parts of it I think.
