A member of my family recently asked me what were my thoughts on the practice of Yoga for Christians. I did a little research on the subject and found the following input that I find interesting and useful for whoever would be having the same kind of questions:
- Don't Turn Off your Brain or your Heart (John Piper);
- Is Yoga Sinful? (John Piper);
- Faith: Unique and Fruitful Effect of the New Birth (John Piper).
Have you practiced Yoga and turned away from it ? Please tell us why? Do you have useful insight about the practice of Yoga for Christians? Please share it with us.

Yoga poses stretch your muscles and increase your range of motion. With regular practice, they will improve your flexibility. Aerobic: No. And even though is not aerobic, some research finds it can be just as good as aerobic exercise for improving health.
