Bio:
Alan Gompers has an inspiring life story to share and is a living testimony to the transformative power and simplicity of meditation. Musician, master salesman, millionaire, con man and drug dealer, Alan on the surface had it all – fame, power, wealth, family – but happiness eluded him.

After being sentenced to life in prison, he discovered the power of meditation, which gave him the experience he was always seeking -- true freedom – peace and happiness within.

Alan was released after five years in prison and has been teaching others – prisoners and laypeople alike how to experience the healing power of meditation. Alan travels the country teaching educators, students, healthcare workers, ministers, businesspeople, firefighters, and police. He has taught large groups of at-risk and mainstream youth and has recently developed a meditation/contemplation curriculum for Yonkers Public Schools.

His autobiography: Maximum Security: the True Meaning of Freedom is recipient of the prestigious PACE Award (Prevention for a Safer Society) for Literature from the National Council on Crime and Delinquency. Alan recently released a meditation CD to support students in their daily practice.
