About this product

Product Information

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * More than 2.7 million copies sold! * "A deeply spiritual book [that] honors what is tough, smart and untamed in women."-- The Washington Post Book World Book club pick for Emma Watson's Our Shared Shelf Within every woman there lives a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. She is the Wild Woman, who represents the instinctual nature of women. But she is an endangered species. For though the gifts of wildish nature belong to us at birth, society's attempt to "civilize" us into rigid roles has muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. In Women Who Run with the Wolves , Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés unfolds rich intercultural myths, fairy tales, folk tales, and stories, many from her own traditions, in order to help women reconnect with the fierce, healthy, visionary attributes of this instinctual nature. Through the stories and commentaries in this remarkable book, we retrieve, examine, love, and understand the Wild Woman, and hold her against our deep psyches as one who is both magic and medicine. Dr. Estés has created a new lexicon for describing the female psyche. Fertile and life-giving, it is a psychology of women in the truest sense, a knowing of the soul.

Reviews
" Women Who Run with the Wolves isn't just another book. It is a gift of profound insight, wisdom, and love. An oracle from one who knows." --Alice Walker   "I am grateful to Women Who Run with the Wolves and to Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Ests. The work shows the reader how glorious it is to be daring, to be caring, and to be women. Everyone who can read should read this book." --Maya Angelou   "An inspiring book, the 'vitamins for the soul' [for] women who are cut off from their intuitive nature." -- San Francisco Chronicle   "Stands out from the pack . . . a joy and sparkle in [the] prose . . . This book will become a bible for women interested in doing deep work. . . . It is a road map of all the pitfalls, those familiar and those horrifically unexpected, that a woman encounters on the way back to her instinctual self. Wolves . . . is a gift." -- Los Angeles Times   "A mesmerizing voice . . . dramatic storytelling she learned at the knees of her [immigrant] aunts." -- Newsweek   "The work of Clarissa Pinkola Ests, rooted in old and deep family rites and in archetypal psychology, recognizes that the soul is not lost, but has been put to sleep. This volume reminds us that we are nature for all our sophistication, that we are still wild, and the recovery of that vitality will itself set us right in the world." --Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul

    Fascinating, instinctual

    I found this book truly enlightening, as I had never been encouraged to tap into my instincts as a child. I didn't even know how to do this. The author uses stories from her culture, with which she was raised, as a teaching guide for women to learn to use their instincts. We are all born with instincts, but are taught to rationalize them away as small children in order to fit into society as good people. We then begin to lose our authentic selves. Clarissa Pinkola Estes uses this book as a tool to those of us who are ready to find that authentic self. I was given this book originally by a friend, and have since lent it to a few other women, and recently bought this book through ebay for my sister starting a divorce after 30+ years. I would highly recommend it to any woman.

    Discovering the Survival Instincts Within

    This is not just a book, this is a guide, to help the reader understand how powerful and strong a woman really is. This book provides wisdom, encouragement, and understanding to help the reader reach deep inside herself to find her strengths. It is written in visuals and with stories to explain the deepest of the innate abilities that live within. I strongly recommend this to anyone on the search for strength, understanding, and confidence through trying times or as a place to lean on for strength during a climb to meet the seemingly unattainable goals we are sometimes presented with. I love this book and I recommend it to any woman seeking strength. I bought it because I share this book with my friends or with people that I meet who seem to be in a struggle with some of life's ...
