The yoga charity I work for has a Radio 4 Appeal going out next week. Here's a short film we've made to tell the story of Sue - and the transformative power of yoga and meditation when she was in prison. I'd love it if you could support with a small donation.

🙏 Thank you to celebrity chef and businessman Levi Roots who is sharing his advice on how to stay healthy in prison, including meditation and yoga, with 5,000 people receiving our peer-support newsletters in prison this week .

🧘 Drawing on his own experience of serving time inside he says: "My mental wellbeing was very important to me and I discovered that simply breathing properly could be the best remedy for anxiety, high blood pressure and depression. It became a major part of everything I did on my journey to becoming the new, healthier me."
