This is an amazing story about meditation in prison and the benefits for the inmates. Inmates at the William E. Donaldson Correctional Facility in Alabama practice the ancient Buddhist technique of Vipassana. http://www.npr.org/2011/02/08/133505880/at-end-of-the-line-prison-an-unlikely-escape

    The benefits of yoga in prison are numerous. It promotes relaxation, enhances communication among the inmates, and helps maintain discipline. In addition, a study has found that regular yoga practice improves prison-wide conditions such as recidivism, infectious diseases, and depression. If you want to learn yoga from experts I would like to suggest you one of the best yoga school who provides yoga classes online at an affordable price.
