Book Reviews of Yoga for Christians: A Christ-Centered Approach to Physical and Spiritual Health through Yoga
Book Review: Great yoga practice that focuses on the Lord!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've checked out a couple of "Christian Yoga" videos (no other books yet) and was disatisfied because to me they seemed like big stage productions that tried to totally change what yoga is, some even changing the names of poses so they don't sound like "yoga" and/or making it a scripture memorization tool. I'm not a fan of trying to "Christianize" yoga but this book/video is different; it simply uses yoga practice as a time to empty the mind of worldly things, be still in spirit, get our focus off of ourselves and meditate on the Lord while moving through the breathing exercises and body strengthening poses. It's more like prayer and meditation, or simply alone time with Jesus, in motion. Susan Bordenkircher does encourage the use of scripture but only those scriptures that God brings to the heart rather than ones specifically prescribed by her (she does recommend scriptures during the video).
The accompanying video is simple with relaxing music and relaxing scenery. Ms. Bordenkircher explains some of the poses although for beginners, I would highly recommend reading the book first and learning some of the poses on your own.
