Is It Okay For A Christian To Do Yoga?

In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, "I'm struggling with anxiety and my therapist suggested that I do yoga. Is it okay for a Christian to do yoga? I know yoga has its roots in Hinduism and for some people it is a religious practice. However, in much of the US, yoga can simply be a system of physical postures and breathing techniques. If yoga is practiced as merely exercise, is it okay for a Christian to do yoga? And, if it is okay for a Christian to do yoga, is it okay for a child to do yoga? My child will be starting kindergarten next year and they do yoga at her school."
