In this week's show Lian is joined by Jane Teresa Anderson BSc Hons. Jane Teresa is a dream analyst, dream therapist, author, podcast host, and mentor, living in Hobart, Australia.
Published by Hachette, Little Brown (Piatkus), Random House, and Harper Collins, Jane Teresa Anderson is the author of seven books about dreams and dreaming, and her 2024 debut fiction novel, Ninth Life.
She is a frequent guest in the media and an accomplished radio dream talk-back expert, interpreting callers' dreams for more than 1,500 shows across commercial and ABC stations.
Jane Teresa hosts a long-running podcast series, The Dream Show with Jane Teresa Anderson, where she analyses her guests' dreams and shares dream interpretation tips and insights. The Dream Show celebrated 16 years (and 290 episodes) in May 2025.
With an Honours degree in Zoology specialising in developmental neurobiology from the University of Glasgow, (graduating as Jane Teresa Newton), Jane Teresa has been researching dreams since 1992 and developing and teaching dream alchemy practices (exercises) that shift perspective and reprogram unconscious limiting beliefs.
In early 2017 she established The Dream Academy as a platform to deliver her courses online.
Jane Teresa's approach to dream analysis, dream therapy, and dream alchemy is based on her independent research and on deep work with clients since 1992. She consults by Zoom.
In this episode, Lian and Jane look at dreams in the most grounded and personal way. Jane shares her journey from neurobiology to a radio experiment that became a major research project. They explore how dream images grow from the last day or two of lived experience, how the mind pulls old memories into the mix, and why this approach differs so deeply from symbol-driven or archetypal methods.
The conversation turns towards what actually makes sense in practice… how personal dreamwork reveals what the mind is trying to update and how a symbolic image changes the moment you speak it aloud.
Listen if you have ever been chased by a recurring dream, wondered whether outlandish scenes mean anything, or sensed that your dreams are trying to move something in you that daylight has not touched.
