There are evidences that yogic practices are beneficial for the overall mental and physical health of prisoners. However, there is a lack of an overview study focused on the effects of yogic practices on mental and physical health of prisoners. Thus, the aimed of the present overview study is to clarify the effects of yogic practices on mental and physical health of prisoners. I have reviewed total 300 research articles out of which 112 was selected for my study. Existing evidence concludes that yogic practices significantly impact on mental and physical health of prisoners. Thestudies was taken from Google scholar andPubMed.
