This inspirational guide to finding your calling and navigating your life using dreams, mysteries, and alchemy draws on Jane Teresa Anderson's life and work as a dream analyst and author, scientist and mystic. This is a story strewn with flowers that bloom, trees that shelter, and birds that sing -- all of which are touchstones to guide you on your path. Part whimsical memoir, part healing balm, and part alchemical guide, Bird of Paradise delivers Jane Teresa's down-to-earth tools and techniques for decoding dreams and synchronicities and offers up her unique signature alchemy practices that enable you to flow and grow with life's challenges, paradoxes, and mysteries. Jane Teresa's work is largely based on her own research and practice of more than twenty-seven years. As such, she has been privileged to spend much of her professional life engaged in exploring her clients' dreams and witnessing the breakthroughs that quite magically occur as a result. When Jane Teresa hasn't been working with clients, she's been writing about dreams and dreaming, speaking about dreams and dreaming in the media, training students to work with dreams, and at night, dreaming her own dreams. "There's a certain magic that comes from spending so much of a life in dreams. Your eyes acclimate to seeing beyond the everyday and you experience quite astounding synchronicities and mysterious goings-on. You witness a greater tapestry that's woven from the threads of yesterday, today, and tomorrow," she says. Immerse yourself in that magic now and learn how to see behind the curtain of ordinary consensus reality. In so doing, your world will become infinitely richer and you will become more aligned with your own unique calling on the road of life.
