Seeing in the Dark

Myths and Stories to Reclaim the Buried, Knowing Woman

By: Clarissa Pinkola Estés

Narrated by: Clarissa Pinkola Estes

Buried within all of us is what Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes refers to as the "one who knows" - our instinctive, intuitive nature. This, she teaches, is the source of creativity and undersatnding that lies out of sight in darkeness, often called the unconscious.

In Seeing in the Dark, listeners join the esteemed Jungian psychoanalyist and best-selling author to learn how to perceive "through the eyes of soul as well as through the eyes of the ego." This dual way of seeing, being, and acting, Dr. Estes explains, is the most direct way to reclaim the gifts and the "healing apothecary" set into each soul at birth.

One of my favorites of all time.

I have listened 10 times or more. I cannot put into words the gratitude I feel for this person, this immense and incredible storyteller. I am so thankful.

too short

Only one chapter long? Good chapter don't get me wrong but I was ready for some stories.
