As a child growing up in a family of cantadoras (keepers of the old stories), Clarissa Pinkola Estés learned firsthand how a story told at bedtime can soothe away the troubles of the day and prepare the way for another night's dreams to follow. Now a beloved cantadora herself, Estés shares this treasured family tradition with you on Bedtime Stories, her own special collection of tales to relax and ease you to sleep.
Join this world-renowned Jungian analyst and bestselling author as she explores how to use stories as healing companions that open an aperture into the divine world of our dreams, as well as the meaning of archetypal figures like Mother Night and the Sandman, and themes such as renewal, enchantment and transformation. Includes original tellings by Dr. Estés of her bedside favorites, including "Sleeping Beauty," "The Mouse and the Lion," and more.

      This jewel of an audio will be appreciated by listeners of all ages. The author of WOMEN WHO RUN WITH THE WOLVES, Estes is a Jungian psychoanalyst and expert on female archetypal influences. In this audio, a well-chosen group of bedtime stories is told against a background of beautiful music and offered as a meditation to help listeners sleep. Every part of this audio is outstanding--the way Estes introduces the listening experience, her insights about rest and relaxation, her wise and melodic voice, and especially the elegant and ancient stories. A wonderful introduction to the pleasures of tales well told that are deeply rooted in the psychohistory and culture of the human spirit. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine
