Virtual Bookclub: Women Who Run With the Wolves
- In stock, ready to ship
- Inventory on the way
Join us for an 8-week virtual Bookclub for intentional discussion, activities, journal prompts, meditation, and more!
We will be reading “Women Who Run With the Wolves” by Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés. This is a book that takes you on an inward journey. It feels perfectly aligned to host this Bookclub while in the Autumn season where we begin to slow down and await the deep rest of winter. Winter will be the perfect time to integrate all that you have discovered from this page turner.
Although we can never claim to change anyone’s life, we almost guarantee that if you devote yourself to reading this piece of literature front to back, you will better be able to hear your inner voice and all the wisdom it is communicating to you.
“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.”
This Bookclub starts Thursday, October 12th at 7:00pm est.
