Jon Persavich

I am a retired teacher, having taught various subjects at the college level for over a half century. I enjoy studying comparative religion and mythology. I have been married for 42 years, our two children are grown, one has a horse ranch and the other works in an allied medical field.

My meditation practice spans four plus decades. During this time, I have practiced meditation in many of its various and splendid forms. I started teaching mindfulness meditation after I retired seven years ago.

Disclaimer:

“I am not a medical practioner or clinician. I am a teacher by training with 50+ years of practice and experience. I have been mindfully meditating daily for the last seven years. Before that my concentrative meditation practice was two or three times a week for a span of 30+ years.

The meditation(s) presented during this talk should not be considered a therapy or clinical session. I will be presenting material and guiding you in meditation(s) that will help you establish the energy of Mindfulness, the foundation of all meditation practices.”
