Yoga in Prisons: An Analysis of the Perceived Long-Term Effects of Trauma-Informed, Mindfulness-Based Yoga for Incarcerated Populations examines the sustained impact of yoga as a rehabilitative and healing practice within carceral settings. Drawing on qualitative research with formerly and currently incarcerated individuals, the book explores how trauma-informed, mindfulness-based yoga supports emotional regulation, self-awareness, resilience, and personal transformation over time. Grounded in critical frameworks of structural violence, mass incarceration, and somatic healing, this analysis highlights yoga’s potential to address the long-term effects of trauma while challenging punitive paradigms. The book also considers the ethical responsibilities of yoga practitioners working in prisons and the importance of culturally responsive, justice-oriented approaches to integrative health. Ultimately, it presents a compelling case for incorporating embodied, trauma-sensitive practices into reentry and rehabilitation programs, informed by the voices of those most directly impacted.
