[.ca] An Invitation to Christian Yoga with CD (Audio) (ISBN 159627008X)

Yoga for Christians:
Yoga has greatly my arthritis, and I believe has contributed to my weight loss. As a Christian, I've felt troubled by the "spiritual" aspects--so many writers on yoga say they've "gone beyond" their Christian or Jewish upbringing and found yoga something cool and groovy and much better. I found Roth's book very helpful in showing we use our bodymind (her word) in our Christian walk.

A "user friendly" introduction to the practice of hatha yoga:
An Invitation To Christian Yoga provides an informed and "user friendly" introduction to the practice of hatha yoga as a source of spiritual well-being in a format compatible to a Christian discipline of prayer and exercises. The text is wonderfully enhanced with helpful illustrations in simple line drawings with Nancy Roth (an Episcopal priest) providing a short biblical text, often drawn from the Psalms, accompany each exercise as a basis for Christian mediation. Whether a novice beginner or an experienced yoga practitioner, An Invitation To Christian Yoga will prove invaluable, practical, inspiring reading, and is especially recommended for anyone who is recovering from an illness or insure, or is less limber than they once were due to the aging process.
