Exploring the Origins and Beliefs of Yoga: A Christian Perspective

Yoga is a popular practice today, especially among women. But what exactly is it? Is it simply a relaxing form of exercise or is there a deeper spiritual meaning to it?

Today we are joined by former yoga instructor and meditation coach, Tatiana Overduin from Adelaide, South Australia. Tatiana will explore the origins, beliefs, and potential consequences of yoga from a Christian perspective. She will also discuss its spiritual aspects, the use of Sanskrit words, and the subtle influence that this practice can have on Christians. This thought-provoking conversation challenges Christians to reflect on what practices they choose to participate in and why the “empowerment” message found in today’s culture is contradictory to the Christian life of repentance and humility.
