Yoga, mindfulness and truly Christian meditation

Matters of Life and Death

Yoga and mindfulness are everywhere in popular Western culture: in school PE lessons, in company retreats, prescribed by doctors, and even sometimes endorsed by churches.

And is there such a thing as ‘Christian meditation’ we should all be leaning into instead?
