BodyPrayer
is a Yoga/Pilates style body conditioning class presented with a Christian
philosophy rather than
the
traditional Yogic, Buddhist, Taoist or Hindu philosophy.
|
We are different
to normal Yoga classes because we offer a Christ centered approach to our
bodies. This is
particularly reflected in the spiritual/mental theme for each week, which is
drawn from the Bible. At the end of each class there is a relaxation, which often leads into a guided mediation or time for quiet reflection. This is a special point in the class where each participant is able to exist in the stillness alone with just their awareness of God.

Toddler BodyPrayer |
This class is a non-spiritual class for
mothers with young children (aged 0-3).
Instead of being in a creche the children join us in the class to play with the provided toys, each other or even join in. After the class we meet for a chat and a coffee at Café 72 in the same building. The class has a
very relaxed atmosphere. It is lots of
fun for both mothers and children.

BodyPrayer Meditation
CDs and MP3s
|
|
||
BodyPrayer has joined with Michael
Wright to produce a specialized meditation CD.
There are currently two available: Walk to Bethlehem Walk
on the water They are available as MP3s that can be
emailed or on CD for $5 each. Please contact Josie at Josie@bodyprayer.com.au to order. |
The meditation style
used is Loyolan. This is based on the
work of St Ignatius of Loyola who took students through a series of
meditations that lead them through the life of Jesus.
It is a very special way to encounter God. The first part of the CD takes the
participant into a state of deep relaxation.
They are then led through a visualization of an event in the life of
Jesus, where they are an onlooker or participant. |
