What is YOGA / Holy Yoga

Holy Yoga looks only to the 'Holy" Bible for teachings.  It's not about doing all the poses perfect as in yoga and it's not about the teachers personal spiritual path.  It's about learning to listen to Him through His Word. The intention is to let go of self, seek a connection with the Holy Spirit through prayer, thanksgiving and praise to God.

The fruits of the Spirit are ours by His Grace. We just need to be open to the true peace and joy of doing His will.

Psalm 46:10 He says, "Be still, and know that I am God;  (not trying to do His job, trust to turning over our cares and let Him be the only God.

What We Believe Statement

Mark 12:30 Jesus said,

 "Love the Lord your God with all your heart

and with all your soul

and with all your mind

and with all your strength."

That's is our intention with Holy Yoga.

 Yoga is all inclusive. It can encompass whatever one's religion is or not one at all. It can just be used as an awesome cross-training tool! Western and Eastern yoga both differ on spiritual paths. There are no requirements, no competition encouraged or judgment.

Yoga is not a religion but is used as a spiritual tool. The yoga breath work and poses scientifically benefit every body type, size or age physically. All students are free to be who they are with a style of yoga and pace for everybody to grow and feel at home.

 Religious traditions and spiritual teachings are part of the Meditation portion of yoga, classic yoga and eastern styles have roots in Hinduism  but they were not the first to practice.  Some newer western styles of yoga have mixed in new age spiritual teachings that can be confusing. There is never a requirement to do all the poses or to participate in religious/spiritual practices that conflict with personal faith.

Yoga meaning is to yoke together parts of self with the a concept of god;

That's in His Word!

Matthew 11:29-30 Jesus say's

"Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me,

for I am gentle and humble in heart, and

YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS.

 "For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."

   To yoke with Jesus is Him helping us with the load we all carry more information   

The three parts to a yoga practice

1.) Breath control,  to quite and focus mind

(prepare for the practice)

2.) Asana poses in movement with breath

(many styles)

Most western styles such as power yoga, focus on the breath and asana's, traditionally beginners in practice for 2-10 years in preparations for the spiritual path.

3.) Meditation listening / praying/ worship

Many paths in old and new yoga, different , cultures, ways of prayer and worship, and conceits of God/gods

Holy Yoga is a path for Christians or those just seeking to fully embrace and enjoy the practice of yoga, stay true to faith and strengthen a personal relationship with Jesus. Through prayers and worship only to our Father in Heaven, God the Creator of the universe.
