Workshop, November 21, 2009
Dear Friends,
The book signing at the New York Public Library last Saturday was a huge success. I can't tell you how much I enjoy meeting new people and sharing my story. One man bought 10 copies of my book...I later found out that he was passing them out to people at homeless shelters around the city.
This Saturday I'll be leading a workshop from 1-4pm, again at the New York Public Library--96th Street Branch. (Please click here for more information) The cost is only $49/per person. I hope you'll come and bring all of your friends.
A huge thank you to Todd Gwinn, Sr. Librarian at the 96th Street Branch and to Janet Gula for inviting me to give a workshop last Sunday at On the Mat in Mountaindale Yoga.
Stay in touch! I love hearing from you. My e-mail is alan@alangompers.com. If you have any questions, please call Lorena at 901-233-0339.
Blessings to all of you. May today find you in happy spirits with a warm heart filled with love and peace.
Love and blessings,

Map & The Flashlight
To all my dear friends,
The response to my last e-mail has been overwhelming. I was so excited to hear from so many people who have read my book and who shared their experience of meditation in their own lives. One person described meditation like this:
"Before, I felt like I was in a cave of darkness and despair. For me, your book and learning to meditate (from your cd) have become my "flashlight and map." It's been my way out of the dark and scary cave of fear and self-sabotage."
I just wanted to remind you that I'll be at The New York Public Library, 112 East 96th Street, in Manhattan, this Saturday, November 14th from 2-3:30PM. (Click here for flyer). See below for a list of two meditation workshops I'll be leading this month!
Thank you again for your support of my passion in sharing hope and light with the world.
If you live in the New York City area, I hope to see you on the 14th. Please bring all your friends for a great afternoon of fun at the library.
My love and blessings,
Alan Gompers

Will I See You at the NYC Public Library?
To all my dear friends,
I wanted to touch hearts with everyone. I have been traveling around the country this past year, speaking, doing radio and media interviews and signing books for people from every walk of life. The response has been very beautiful and inspiring. It has made my tour far greater than anything I could have dreamed of.
I am back in New York and thrilled with the opportunity to present my CD, "Maximum Freedom, A Guide to Meditation."
I'd like to invite you to The New York Public Library, 112 East 96th Street, in Manhattan, on Saturday, November 14th from 2-3:30PM. I will be appearing for a very "special" and exciting speaking and book signing event that is free and open to the public. (Click here for flyer)
If you have already purchased my book or cd (from amazon.com or my website) and are using them in your daily practice, please e-mail me and let me know your thoughts. My e-mail address is alan@alangompers.com
If you live in the New York City area, I hope to see you on the 14th. If you live elsewhere, please know you are in the deepest part of my heart and I hope to be in your hometown again soon.
