Meditation in Prison
Vote for integration of Kundalini Yoga & Meditation in Prison ! This will contribute to a safer, better-off society / The cost to incarcerate one man per year in New York is $55,670 (higher than the average income of a New York State resident)
This will also ensure preventing reincarceration, and helping inmates for a personal transition to a free, healthy harmonious and happier life in control!

Why is this important?
• With over 2 million prisoners, USA is on the top of the chart for total number of prisoners, holding 23 % of total global inmate population on the planet.
• 67 % of people released from prison are re-arrested within 3 years of their release.
Why Meditation in Prison:
Prisoners share common characteristics, although they differ in age and social background. Most of them are highly impulsive and have low self-control. Meditation gives people a conscious choice and chance to become aware and in control of their behavior.
Kundalini Yoga & Meditation are magnificent shortcut to restoring power, harmony & energetic balance in the human body and living happy, stress –free, fulfilled life.
Successful Examples of Meditation in Prison
Meditation has brought to the American correctional system /the practice has also been successfully introduced in Mexico, Australia, as well as in US women’s prison/ a way out of the debate about how to administer change from the outside by giving directly to the inmate the responsibility and means to change from within.
Outcomes of Kundalini Yoga & Meditation
National researches conducted over a decade in the US, show that meditation the practices lead to :
• Improved executive functioning:
o Improved self-control and self-awareness
o Improved attention skills
• Reduced stress and anxiety:
o Decreased anxiety
o Decreased blood pressure
• Reduced misbehavior/aggression
• Improved attention skills and social skills
• Increased positive emotions
We believe integration of Kundalini Yoga & Meditation in Prisons will contribute to improved self-control, self-awareness and decreased levels of aggression of prisoners and future crime prevention! This will create much more humane and effective prison system. We believe that every person deserves a chance for healing, in order to build a free, safe, healthy and happier future society!
