The endangered species of powerfully creative and passionate women

? UNDER THE LAMPLIGHT-

Tap into your “Wild Woman”: Women Who Run With The Wolves is a deeply spiritual book by Clarissa Pinkola Estés that argues inside of every woman is a powerful voice of good and ageless instinctual nature, creativity, and passion known as the “Wild Woman.” According to Estes, the wild woman is an endangered species, almost extinct due to societal pressures for women to fit into “civilized” roles. Readers, especially females, can regain an understanding of the deep feminine psyches and the truest sense of knowing the soul. The book’s unique format also piqued our interest, as it unveils rich multicultural myths, fairy tales, folk tales, and stories — many from Estes own traditions — that support women in rediscovering the powerful, healthy, and imaginative aspects of their innate nature.
