Staying Healthy In A Federal Prison Camp : Maintaining And Improving Physical, Emotional And Spiritual Health During A 'Camp' Incarceration

An essential book for individuals currently incarcerated or facing incarceration in a Federal Prison Camp. This book has been written by a qualified physician - who has spent 22 months at a FPC. The book provides several self-help exercises to prevent your health (physical, mental & spiritual) from deteriorating during confinement. These exercises will also assist you in improving your current and future health - you will need it when you leave the prison, because: - Death is 12 times more likely in the first four weeks after release from prison when compared to your peers in the 'free' community. - Mental health disorders (and self-inflicted injuries) affect a much larger number of prisoners than the general population. - Inmates have a significantly poorer spiritual life when compared to persons without criminal records. - Within three years of release, about two-thirds (67.8 percent) of the released prisoners are re-arrested. Health topics covered - Physical - restoration/reinvigoration - Aerobic exercise: walking/bicycling - Anaerobic exercise: weight lifting/resistance bands - Sporting Activiites - both outdoor and indoor - Stretching/flexibility: yoga/exercise balls - Breathing exercises - Proper nutrition, good sleep - Emotional - cleansing/recharging - Overcoming negativity - Positive thinking/positive behavior/positive affirmations - Cheerful visualizations/grateful recitations - Prudent socialization - Participation in indoor games, arts, music - Continuing education, learning a new language - Spiritual - replenishment/revival - Meditation - Prayer/religious activity These practical recommendations are based not only on personal observations and experiences, but are also backed by evidence based scientific studies which are extensively referenced throughout the book.
