How Can Creative Christ-Centered Spiritual Practices Help You Grow Spiritually?
Practices like yoga, creativity, art, breathwork, meditation, and prayer can become powerful tools for deepening your walk with God—when rooted in Christ. These Getting Still blogs explore how ancient and creative spiritual practices can help you grow in faith, find inner peace, and experience transformation through the presence of Jesus.
Can Christians practice yoga and still stay true to Scripture? How does spiritual energy or the chakra system fit into a Christ-centered life? What does it mean to meet God in the stillness?
These posts will help you explore those questions and more, with topics like:
- Walking in Christ’s freedom
- Meeting Jesus in the wilderness (Lent reflections)
- The benefits of yoga for Christians
- Journeying through the chakras with Christ
- Art, creativity, and movement as prayer
- And more
As a Christ-follower and yoga teacher with over 25 years of experience, I’m passionate about helping spiritual seekers draw closer to the Divine through both ancient and creative practices. These reflections invite you to explore yoga, meditation, energy healing, and contemplation from a Biblical perspective—while addressing common fears and questions many Christians face.
Explore the blog to discover how creative spiritual practices can help you deepen your faith, connect with Christ, and grow in spiritual maturity.
