Joyful and Profound

Estes has a voice as soothing and full of wisdom as could be asked for. This series is a balm and a guide, invoking the wisdom of the body, soul and the mind through the recounting of many stories, both personal, folkloric, mythological and spiritual. Estes does a masterful job using Jungian influenced psychology irrevocably fused with story to provide a guide and a loving push towards loving the body and the self. You'll find eerily pertinent advice and comfort here.

Rich depth into the Joyous Body

The genius of Dr. Estes in clear, definitely delicious dialogue in rich storytelling. This program is wisely teaching a deeper perspective of connected soulful body. We enjoyed listening from beginning to end.

Totalmente automotivador para la mujer actual
