Insight Prison Project's new yoga class for veterans is highlighted in The Huffington Post! This new class is designed specifically for incarcerated military veterans with a focus on applying yoga for trauma-related issues, including PTSD. 

This is an interview with Ron G. Self, founder of Veterans Healing Veterans from the Inside Out (VHV-FTIO), a program he started at San Quentin State Prison in 2012 specifically to address psychological, emotional and ethical issues of veterans related to their active duty in the military, and to explore how their personal experiences may have contributed to behavior that resulted in their committing a crime. The program offers cognitive behavioral processing and mind/body integration support and seeks to share its healing work with veterans on the outside.
