Inez Aires: Prison Yoga Project, How to Gain Mental Freedom

In this episode, environmental engineer and yoga teacher, Inez Aires shares her experience working with prisoners for the Prison Yoga Project, in Portugal.
Inez challenges how prisons are designed firstly questioning the reintegration process of a prisoner back into society, and then how we commonly see a prison design.

Having travelled in many countries to “drink from the source” by immersing herself in ancestral rituals and spiritual practices, Inez reinforces the idea behind the Prison Yoga Project: to give prisoners access to mental and physical freedom with respect, and responsibility.

This episode interests anyone who would like to know more about volunteer work, namely the Prison Yoga Project, or who is responsible for designing and creating social projects with a human centric approach.
