Three principles correctional counseling (3PCC) posits that people in prison have inner mental health they have obscured to varying degrees with their own thinking. 3PCC further posits that people in prison can rekindle and sustain this inner health via understanding how three psychospiritual principles-Universal Mind, consciousness, and thought-coalesce to form people's psychological experience. We review the three principles and explain how exposure to these principles can lead to improved mental health and improved behavior. Then, we describe 3PCC and distinguish it from prevailing correctional counseling methods. Finally, we present a preliminary study that examines the efficacy of 3PCC for improving the mental health and behavior of people in an English prison. Our findings show that participants exposed to 3PCC showed a significant improvement in mental well-being and purpose in life, significant reductions in anxiety and anger, and improved behavior in the prison community.

Article Synopsis
- The transmembrane potential is crucial for cellular functions like signaling and energy production, with Rhodamine voltage reporters (RhoVRs) serving as small, non-invasive sensors that can detect voltage changes, especially in mitochondria.
- Extensive simulations and free-energy calculations revealed that the orientation of RhoVRs relative to membranes, influenced by their polarized functional groups, significantly impacts their voltage sensitivity and localization within cells.
- The study's findings on the relationship between the chemical structure of RhoVRs and their membrane behavior offer valuable insights for designing fluorescent dyes that better detect voltage changes.

Department of Psychiatry, College of Medicine, Hawler Medical University, Erbil, IRQ.
Background: Substance use is a growing concern, impacting the health, social stability, and economic well-being of individuals and communities. In Iraq, particularly in Erbil, limited data exists on the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of patients with substance use disorders (SUDs). This study aims to identify these characteristics among inpatients at Hawler Psychiatric Hospital to better understand the profiles and associated factors influencing substance use in this region.
