This brief provides readers with a broad, but detailed framework to understand, evaluate, and apply trauma-informed techniques suitable for incarcerated and formerly incarcerated populations using movement, breath practices, and other embodied, mindfulness-based exercises. Leveraging recent neurobiological research about trauma, this book presents best practices and “on-the-ground” experiences of participants of mindfulness-based, trauma-informed yoga while incarcerated. It acknowledges the role that trauma may have played in individuals' lives, including substance misuse and violent behavior. This brief will leverage the emergence of the integration of developmental, neurological, addiction treatment, and social perspectives. It is an accessible and valuable tool for a variety of body-based healing professionals.
