This book is perfect for incarcerated adults and teens or anyone undergoing rehab or long-term treatment.

"Taking my mind right out of prison and focusing on something good and positive."      -T.F. Jesup, GA


Wonderful resource for people in prison        - 5 stars

I am the director of a national nonprofit that provides free books to people in prison in all 50 states. We frequently get asked for puzzle books, meditation books, and other sorts of books, so that people can do their time productively and keep their minds occupied and stay out of trouble. This is the perfect combination of several of these kinds of books. It contains daily affirmations, fun puzzles and activities, and lots of helpful mental health resources. Prison dehumanizes you, and it takes work to stay sane and healthy inside. I can't recommend this book enough for programs like ours, or for anyone with an incarcerated loved one. We're adding it to our wish list so that donors can purchase copies for us!


Another great offering from Patricia Branigan to help people in prison! - 5 stars

I am the director of a national nonprofit that provides free books to people in prison in all 50 states. We have distributed several copies of Volume 1 of this book and have received very good feedback on it! It doesn't repeat the same items from Volume 1 and contains new resources, boredom-busters, and mood-lifters. I can't recommend this book enough for programs like ours, or for anyone with an incarcerated loved one. 

Highly Recommend - 5 stars

This book is a wonderful resource containing meditations, gratefulness and workout trackers, and various helpful coping skills and games designed to keep an active brain. As a therapist I recommend this book for clients.

We are excited to be included in the Prison Book Program's Amazon Wish List. 

"Prison Book Program mails books to people in prison to support their educational, vocational and personal development and to help them avoid returning to prison after their release. We also aim to provide a quality volunteer experience that introduces citizens to issues surrounding the American prison system and the role of education in reforming it.  We believe that everyone has a right to read, and that books are tremendous sources of enlightenment, enjoyment, and transformation. We also strive to lessen the dehumanization and isolation of incarceration by providing our readers with a connection to a community of caring people." - Prison Book Program
