Book Club: Sacred Sexuality and Enlivening the Senses (Ch. 11, Women Who Run With the Wolves)
This is our Book Club episode where we discuss a chapter from our current book choice: Women Who Run With the Wolves by Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes. In this episode, we discuss chapter 11 "Heat: Retrieving a Sacred Sexuality”.Summary:This chapter focuses on the idea that sacred sexuality is the wild part of us that is fully engaged in our senses, alive, and free. This chapter shows us how to take deep, belly laughs, and how to come back to ourselves through the sacred and the sacrilege in equal measure. This chapter is for those of us who want to learn more about sacred sexuality and how to connect to this part of our wild woman. It’s for those of us who want to enliven our senses and learn to live in a way that is deeply connected to our feelings. And it’s also for those of us who have been taking life a little too seriously and need to remember everything doesn’t need to be so neat and tidy.In this episode we discuss:What roses can teach us about Sacred Sexuality and connecting to our sensesOur favorite stand up comics and how laughter can set us freeHow Sacred Sexuality and laughter can help in times of griefResources mentioned in the episodeI’m Still Here: Black dignity in a world made for whiteness by Austin Channing BrownStand Up Comics on Netflix:Ali WongElder MillenialWanda SykesMichelle WolfTiffany HaddishTraumaprevention.com Deep Space Nine's Aromantic Love Story by Abigail DillonFull Heart Free Voice links:Affiliate Shop (Clarissa Pinkola Estes Audio Classes)InstagramEmma's links:3 habits to calm your fear and start writingEmma's websiteCaitlin's links:Finally start your passion projectsMulti-passionate coachingWedding coachingWeekly multi-passionate PSA**If you loved this episode, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast player!**Attributions:Theme music: Wally Ingram, Stevie Blacke and Tom Freund.
