The Lotus and the Lily
Access the Wisdom of Buddha and Jesus to Nourish Your Beautiful, Abundant Life
By Janet Conner

Janet Conner is a vibrant writer, speaker, and teacher who became a catalyst for deep soul change after a series of personal traumas. Her landmark book, Writing Down Your Soul (Conari 2009), connects readers to their "extraordinary voice within" and is consistently the #1 book in the journal writing category. She also developed My Soul Pages (Conari Press 2011), a unique companion journal designed to support deep soul writers.

Janet's newest book, The Lotus and the Lily (Conari Press Oct 2012), cracks the abundance code by linking the wisdom of the inner voice with the surprising parallel teachings of Buddha and Jesus. In a profound yet simple 30-day program, Janet sheds radical new light on "The Great Paradox of Prosperity" and guides readers to create the personal receptive conditions that nourish a bountiful life.

Janet and her work have been featured in national media including Martha Stewart's Whole Living, Daily Word, Daily Om, Unity Magazine, Beliefnet.com and many more. She teaches five courses in her trademark series Your Soul Wants Five Things, sharing five wisdom habits that meet the soul's primary needs to connect with Source, commit to values, serve a purpose, express itself, and create life.

Janet lives and writes in Ozona, Florida. She speaks nationally at conferences, churches, bookstores, libraries, and spiritual centers, and reaches thousands worldwide through her global telecourses. With her signature teaching of Your Soul Wants Five Things, Janet is fast becoming a major voice for spiritual growth and understanding in our time.
