Om YogaThon 2012 · 27 October 2012

Our trauma-sensitive yoga and meditation programmes support the rehabilitation of offenders and improve education and training opportunities for people in prison, with an evidence-based approach to enhancing wellbeing, reducing recidivism, and preparing individuals for life beyond custody.

Story

Hello and welcome to my JustGiving page!

I'm hoping to use my love of yoga to raise money for The Phoenix Prison Trust.  The Trust uses the beautiful and transformative practices of yoga and meditation to encourage prisoners in their spiritual lives by working with silence and the breath.

They encourage the practice by:

  • training qualified yoga teachers for prison and helping establish regular prison classes for prisoners and for staff
  • sending free books and CDs out to prisoners who request them
  • offering personal correspondence about prisoners’ meditation and yoga practice
  • producing a quarterly newsletter

As many of you know I'm hoping to start my yoga teacher training next year and I very much hope to be able to work for the Trust at some point in the future.

Any money you can donate will be gratefully received. My target is £108....£1 for each round of Surya Namaskar (sun salutation) that I complete on 27th October at the Om Yoga Show.

So please, if you can, dig deep and donate now.

Om Shanti

Amanda aka YogaGirl235
