O knihe

I Hear Your Cry: Women in Prison shares the extraordinary process of
how one woman took a dream, nurtured it into reality, and shared her
inspirational message with women prisoners-never give up.

Author Veronica A. Shaffer has always relied on her inner voice to lead
her, but it was her perseverance and commitment to personal growth
that eventually allowed her to share the benefits of yoga and meditation
with women prisoners. In this poignant account, Shaffer compromises
with prison officials who ask her to rename her program "Fit and
Wellness," and begins her life-transforming work. Although her
personal experiences differ from those of the female prisoners she
educates, she is able to identify with their powerlessness and
desperation-two demons she had personally battled as a young
woman. Her years of teaching are complemented by the amazing
lessons learned from women who struggle with addictions, obesity,
physical handicaps, grief over separation from loved ones, anger at the
men left behind, and loneliness without friends.
