Hi friends! I’m Misty with Christians Do Yoga and today I’m bringing you a 25 minute gentle practice (we won’t even get up on our feet!).
Our intention today comes from Matthew 11:28-29 (TPT):
“Are you weary, carrying a heavy burden? Then come to me. I will refresh your life, for I am your oasis. Simply join your life with mine. Learn my ways and you’ll discover that I’m gentle, humble, easy to please. You will find refreshment and rest in me.”
Have you been feeling heavy or burdened lately? I’d love to invite you to unroll your mat and spend some time turning that over to Jesus. Let’s get started!

I can not believe I found this video. During regular yoga, I am always praying to Jesus. Now someone who can pray over me. Thank you.

[@ChristiansDoYoga]

So glad you enjoyed it!

Why are you ignoring the origin of yoga and trying to appropriate this? Yoga is Hindu.. stop making it Christian or Muslim.

She made me cry at the end. Beautiful. 🙏❤

[@johnnamontillio2690]

I have been asked to do yoga for therapy, but I will not be honoring or praying to Hindu gods as I do it. We all know where it comes from. It's pushed at us daily.

Christian yoga Tf what is christianised version of yoga

[@WildCoffeeHomestead]

My husband and I started doing this yoga with this video 3 days ago. I am 57 and have many aches and pains. I don’t sleep well as my body is uncomfortable and toss and turn all night. 1st night I slept better than usual. 2nd night for the 1st time in many many years I slept all night and maybe moved once. I am in awe and am praising God for this! Also absolutely love the ministry and scripture! Thank you and may God bless you! 🥰

[@ChristiansDoYoga]

That is amazing!! God is good! Thank you so much for sharing. Consistency will work wonders, so keep at it!

[@WildCoffeeHomestead]

Christians Do Yoga how often should I do this? Daily? So thankful for you and your ministry/videos!!!!! 🙌🙌🙌

[@ChristiansDoYoga]

@@WildCoffeeHomestead Because it's low impact and bodyweight only, you can do yoga daily! If you do any harder sessions (like power flows) you'd want to alternate it with lighter sessions, but you really can do it as often as you'd like.

[@WildCoffeeHomestead]

Christians Do Yoga that’s wonderful! Yeah we will probably stick to the gentle until our tight bodies can loosen up a bit! Thanks for your help!!! 😍

Love hearing scripture while stretching. I am a total beginner and am not flexible at all. It will be awhile before I can totally stretch but not giving up, thank you.

You're welcome! Keep at it! It's a practice, and you'll see progress with consistency. Show up just as you are, do what you can do, and leave the rest!

[@coachdaree]

Love love love that you read scripture and pray during our practice it brings one more layer of peace. My favorite movement part of the practice was toward the end when stretching low back, piriformis, hips and legs. It really helps to soothe my sciatica and low back pain. Thank you for putting this out for us. God Bless

[@moosethelarson3505]

I’m so glad people do this! I’ve never participated in yoga because of its origins and the messages its instructors usually give, but Christian yoga is just a whole game changer. I felt so good after I did this, and filled with the Holy Spirit’s love for me

[@ChristiansDoYoga]

So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the feedback!

[@Xavier.01]

Wtf She stolen our culture

[@stephaniesantana7318]

I love this stretch! Day before yesterday was the first time in over 10 years I started to practice yoga again. As a Christian I was always taught yoga wasn’t of God, but after doing my research and several car accidents later I disagree. I think anything can be used for Gods glory. The stretches are not only simple but relaxing and the scripture is a daily reminder of who God is! Sister I thank you for sharing your heart of God and the stretches to help me not only relax but be reminded that no matter what I am Gods!

[@ChristiansDoYoga]

You're welcome! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! And yes we agree yoga can be used for God's glory! Thank you so much for sharing!

[@BeautyFitnessFamily]

I started yoga a month ago, I’m really into fitness & wellness. However, I always find myself praying to God throughout class. I get an uneasy feeling, but couldn’t figure out why. With you instructing class and keeping our focus on Christ, I feel so comfortable ❤️ Best yoga class so far!

[@ChristiansDoYoga]

Yay!! I'm so happy to hear. Thank you for sharing!!

[@GentlemenJack109]

What’s the difference between Christian yoga and regular yoga? It looks the same to me, just stretching your body.

[@cam-xt9uh]

There is no difference...none whatsoever. Yoga came from Hindu and each pose is, in fact, dedicated to one of 330 million Hindu gods (which are, in fact, Satan's demons). Anyone who gets into those poses -- or asanas - is making a prayer to one of those gods,, whether he intends to or not. This is why Christians in India, where yoga originated, avoid yoga like the plague.

[@JessicaJacob]

This is my absolute favorite that yall do for the AM.

[@ChristiansDoYoga]

We’re glad you liked it!

[@laurenbellamy]

Thank you so much! My favorite today was the body roll. I loved the prayer as well! 🙏🏽❤️

[@kogden8412]

[@savannahaguilar1072]

Wow, you have no idea how on time that scripture was. Been going through a pretty rough season. This video had been sitting in my saved videos for quite a while but I haven't really had the time to actually get around to it. This morning was my first time doing it and wow it was amazing. The scripture, the prayer, everything was so on time. Thank you for this ❤️

[@savannahaguilar1072]

@@johnlegend1963 hi John! Thank you for your input :) I have heard of this and have taken it into consideration. I believe that attitude and intention plays the main role in "practicing Hinduism" as you said. I am not intending for this yoga routine to be a Hindu practice, I am simply doing it as a stretching routine. I appreciate your concern though, thank you!

[@carolynbrown4112]

@@johnlegend1963 John we respect your opinion. Yoga may not be right for you and that's ok. As a Christian I've had many benefits from Christian yoga and it has strengthened my Christian walk. We can agree to disagree. No need to judge each other. God is the only judge.

To us, it's yoga that does not have any emphasis on eastern religion, but rather spending time with God on our mat. The term itself is more about helping people find our videos, because Christians who are looking for yoga like this are often searching for "Christian yoga."
