Freeing the Human Spirit is a program for yoga/meditation instructors in Canada, which provides training, placement and support for instructors offerring their services in prisons.

The Freeing the Human Spirit program hopes to train all teachers for all Canadian Correctional Institutions.

Sister Elaine MacInnes, an enthusiastic advocate of Restorative Justice — that prisons be places of help and healing and not simply places of punishment — has been teaching meditation in prisons since 1980.
