About this listen
From Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Part Three of Her Masterwork on The Dangerous Old Woman
"It is the nature of the saplings to quake in the winds; hesitant, learning to hold their own places. But, the older trees, with their years of testing and being tested, they are the ones who, whether in the long stern winds or misty gales, sway the most. Less a bouquet of tentative trembling first-time buds, now much more the leaf-perfumed hips of a hundred wide women dancing—these old ones, regardless of form, sway, by heart, to the music that thunders through them."—Clarissa Pinkola Estés, PhD
The Body, Your Valiant Consort
"Each one of us is a triumvirate being—at once the union of body, soul, and all that lies within." For any who experience disharmony amongst these three vital aspects, Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés reveals a pathway back to wholeness. Join her with The Joyous Body for the third volume of her masterwork on the Wise Woman archetype. This empowering six-session program shares original and old family stories, poems, and psychological commentary on the challenges, remedies, and ancient knowings of the holy female body, "that which is not a dumb servant but a divine fellow traveler and consort."
Renew Your Relationship with The Sacred-Body Consort
"Remember that the loyal body is the first to signal us that something is needed. It is our first responder," teaches Dr. Estés, "in order for us to not only survive but to thrive in the world." Now, The Joyous Body is here to help you remember the old body wisdom, to heal and renew your relationship "with the sacred, magnificent being with whom you came to this earth."

Is our destiny written inside our very DNA? Richard Rudd suggests that humanity is on the verge of a major shift in consciousness rooted in a new understanding of how our genes operate. He introduces this fantastic possibility, showing how the "gene keys" are an inner language designed to transform our core beliefs about ourselves and raise us to a higher level of awareness.
