“A great introduction to Jungian dreamwork! Not only will you learn Jungian dreamwork but also some key Jungian concepts. Practical and inspiring, it deepens your relationship with your dream life and, consequently, enriches your waking life! Highly recommended!” ―Machiel Klerk, psychotherapist, author of Dream Guidance, and founder of Jung Platform

“If you’ve ever wondered what your dreams mean, then Dream Wise is the book for you. Dream Wise offers a well-written, comprehensive, deep, and practical way to understand Jungian dreamwork for both the beginner and the experienced. And it’s fun to read and to work with the exercises that the authors provide.” ―Linda Leonard, PhD, author of The Wounded Woman and The Call to Create

“If you want to do a huge favor to your inner dream maker, your rational ego, and your collective unconscious, read this book! Understand how ingeniously (and playfully) your psyche is working each night to help you move forward in your life journey and tune in to the numinous! An exhilarating and entertaining journey through a rich, edifying, and ultimately mysterious terrain.” ―Elif Batuman, novelist and author of The Idiot and Either/Or

“Fabulous! It’s comprehensive in scope yet readable and accessible even for those new to Jung’s ideas. This book provides an invaluable service to the Jungian community and all those interested in dreams.” ―Patricia Berry, PhD, Jungian analyst and author of Echo’s Subtle Body

“This is one of the best overall books I’ve ever read on the practice of dream interpretation. Not just an excellent primer on Jung’s psychology of dreaming, Dream Wise speaks to our contemporary yearning for a greater life purpose than merely satisfying the desires of the ego, a yearning to become healthy and whole and actualized in all our potentials. The path of your dreams leads in precisely this direction, and you could ask for no better guides than Lisa, Deborah, and Joseph, whose deep familiarity and respect for each other creates an alchemically playful dynamic in their ways of exploring the mythically charged realm of dreaming. Highly recommended!” ―Kelly Bulkeley, PhD, author of The Spirituality of Dreaming

“Who knew a teacher as great as the dream maker lay waiting for us night after night? And all we have to do is listen and apply the right keys for the lessons to be unlocked. The symbolic and guiding significance of my dreams has always been sort of abstract and unattainable to me. I’d wake up and never really remember what happened throughout the night. And if I did remember, I had no idea what to make of it. But whilst reading this book, it was like a cracking open of a whole new aspect of myself, one that had just been lying there forgotten, waiting to be remembered and communed with. Applying the keys set out in the book helped me become more in tune with the deep, mysterious realm of my dreaming unconscious, and I was able to not only remember but expand upon and learn from the stories and dreams brought forth in my sleep. It has been a fascinating and deeply illuminating process with this wonderful companion of a book, and I will certainly keep it on my nightstand for years to come.” ―Finn Jones, actor

“Everyone dreams, and that’s proof of your innate ability to spontaneously create images, characters, stories, and worlds. If you don’t feel like a creative person, you have a broken relationship with the part of you that effortlessly dreams. This book holds the keys to unlocking that intuitive, creative, deepest part of yourself!” ―Andy J. Pizza, New York Times bestselling author and illustrator

“The three hosts of This Jungian Life podcast have created a clear and practical introduction to dreams for those seeking to deepen their self-understanding. They have developed a unique ‘key’ system that facilitates engagement with dreams and ensures that the dreamwork process remains experiential and emotionally alive. This book will be a wonderful resource for those seeking guidance as they begin their dream journey.” ―Mark Winborn, PhD, Jungian psychoanalyst and clinical psychologist, author of Interpretation in Jungian Analysis and Jungian Psychoanalysis: A Contemporary Introduction

“An accessible and utterly engrossing guide to the language of our dreams and thus to our true selves. Whether you’re a fan of the authors’ wonderful podcast, This Jungian Life, or the works of Carl Jung, or just find yourself on that ever-human journey of personal individuation, this book is a must-have. If being in league with one’s inner dream maker is the ultimate and most ancient form of self-help, this book holds the key to unparalleled personal growth and transformation.” ―Justin Simien, filmmaker, actor, and author

“A solid and responsible introduction to the value of dreams for the individual. It is based on Jungian methods for mining the rich meaning of dreams for our daily lives. The book is a valuable guide to understanding and interpreting dreams in and out of analytic contexts.” ―Murray Stein, PhD, author of Jung’s Map of the Soul

“Of all the depth psychologists following Freud, only C. G. Jung privileged the dream as a key to the mysteries of the inner world. In this supremely useful book, three experienced Jungian analysts address the practical question of “how” we can work with our dreams in order to open the hidden meanings that lie in the dream symbols and motifs. The result is an excellent guide for laypersons and professionals alike. I highly recommend this book!” ―Donald Kalsched, PhD, author of The Inner World of Trauma and Trauma and the Soul

“As a filmmaker, I love using my dreams as a guide for my storytelling, and I find this book exquisitely inspiring. The reverence the authors have for the dream maker (a part of us all), and their deep devotion to the mystery of the inner world, resonates powerfully with what I know of the creative process and of my own impulse as a storyteller, which is, creating the story I need to experience in the world in order to know myself more deeply and to heal. So too, the dream maker, you and I, are creating every night the dreams we each need in order to become whole, and this book offers beautiful keys, questions, and prompts that can lead to a more intimate understanding of the mysterious depths of ourselves.” ―Deborah Kampmeier, filmmaker

“This is a remarkable book: a rigorous yet utterly absorbing guide to the wisdom-filled world we enter nightly. I began dream analysis as a skeptic, but its benefits have been too powerful to ignore―and I can't imagine a better companion than Dream Wise for making the journey.” ―Oliver Burkeman, author of Four Thousand Weeks
