Should Christians Do Yoga? | Ep 13
Is it OK for Christians to do yoga?
Maybe as a teacher you have been asked this question, or maybe you're wondering this for yourself.
We have a treat for you today! We’re having our very 1st guest on the Jesus Coffee Yoga Podcast, our Master Teacher Trainer, Misty Elliott!
She gets to lead our teachers in training to navigate these conversations and answer these questions for themselves. So we thought, who better to lead us through this discussion?!
She has walked alongside the holy spirit in navigating these questions and concerns about facing judgment herself. AND, like many of you, she has faced ridicule and backlash for her practice and for choosing to become a yoga teacher.
She reminds us in this episode that yoga is not a religion, but a SPIRITUAL DISCIPLINE. And she also reminds us that our decisions can’t come from someone else’s ideas about what we “should” do, but through our own conversations with the Holy Spirit.
If you, too, have been faced with this question, or maybe you've just pondered this question yourself, this episode is for you! Join us while we hear some of Misty’s story and discuss some of the common questions and concerns around Christians practicing Yoga.
So grab a cup of coffee, pull up a chair, and let's chat.

If you know another Christian yoga teacher who could use some help and encouragement in their teacher practice, would you please share our podcast with them?
We’d love to reach more people and sharing it with your teacher friends would mean the world to us!
