In this time of global upheaval, many believe that
human consciousness is evolving: we are learning to
attune to greater collective compassion. On a
personal level, how does this evolution occur? How
do we learn to receive universal love and wisdom? We
are faced with continual challenges and questions in
this life: Why am I here? Where am I going? Why is
there suffering? In our times of need and
uncertainty we wonder: What is the best source of
guidance for me? It is the purpose of this book to
offer a doorway into the sweet conversation with our
own personal spiritual guidance. Through inspired
messages and a series of simple exercises, this
unique workbook gently invites the reader into a
generous frequency of compassion and forgiveness.
The author shares her own journey into dialogue with
unseen helpers, beginning with the admonition to be
gentle with the self, and wait…. Now she leads
Listening Circles where many find an opening to
unconditional love and wisdom. This book also
includes guidance for hosting a Listening Circle. |

Reviews
of The Sweet Conversation:
“If you have given up on other spiritual practices
because they were too complicated or too esoteric,
or too demanding, you owe it to yourself to try this
one. Jane Smith Bernhardt has framed her practice as
a conversation. Having quieted and focused herself,
she asks a question of Spirit. Then she sits,
offering the discipline of her waiting, with the
expectation of a response. In this workbook she
shows us many examples of the questions she asks and
answers she receives, revealing her deep spiritual
dialogue.”
—Dr. Wesley Burwell, retired
United Church of Christ Minister,
Pastoral Psychotherapist, and Hospice Chaplain
“It is said that ‘we are the ones we have been waiting
for.’ This book shows us how we ourselves can connect
with Source, inviting us in concrete ways to Hear in the
Stillness and make our own direct relationship with All
That Is: with the unseen guidance that is ever available
directly to each of us.”
—Dr.
Patricia Hunt-Perry, Professor
Emeritus of Social Thought,
Ramapo College. Retired Dharma Teacher, Tiep Hien
Order Buddhism.
“The Sweet Conversation is a beautiful invitation to
allow the divine guidance that is always present.
Jane has such a gift of expressing what is Truth. I
keep two inspirational reference guides by my
meditation space; one is A Course in Miracles, the
other is The Sweet Conversation. I refer to one or
both to set an intention for my meditation, and find
them both to be true divine guidance.”
—Thomas Paolini, Chaplain,
Unity On The River (A Spiritual Center)
“This book took me on a spiritual journey,
reinforcing much of what I already felt I knew and
showing me more of the way with gentle and patient
guidance. Yet it was also deeply moving and
profound, and it felt like the conversations were
meant for me to hear. I have been telling my
friends, and I highly encourage anyone seeking
spiritual guidance to read this book.”
—Alice Greene, Eating,
Exercise and Self-Care Counselor and
author of Inspired to Feel Good
