Get an Inner Life MEDITATE: Freedom is Found Within - Paperback

by Doreena Durbin (Author)

Doreena initiated a Prison Meditation Program in the men's prison in Texas to teach inmates how to meditate and connect with their inner beings. As a highly sensitive person and intuitive empath, Doreena embraces new ideas, cultures, and religions. She expounds upon the benefits of meditation while using personal stories, anecdotes, and insights that inspire others to embark on their own meditation and spiritual journeys. Inmates learn that even though they are in prison, they have value and worth as human beings and can find healing and redemption as they return to society. Doreena emphasizes that we are all interconnected. What we do to each other, we do to ourselves.

Doreena invites you to join her as she leads you down the prison courtyard past hundreds of inmates into the chapel library. There she conducts classes for inmates to experience two hours of peace and silence in the chaotic prison environment. The heightened energy is palpable during group meditations. She hopes they will incorporate meditation in their daily lives. "Getting an inner life" promotes hope and healing as the inmates draw upon spiritual energy, in an effort to make amends for past deeds. Paying it forward will uplift others who are seeking freedom from bondage.
