Yoga is but another subtle form of ungodliness that we have allowed into our lives that is being accepted even among Christians in the name of exercise. Even if your not chanting some mindless Buddhist mantra; emptying your mind in order to get in touch with the divine or for any reason is not biblical rather it is giving entrance or a foothold to Satan himself.
Do away with those things that have a form of godliness but deny His power. I know it sounds a little nitpicky and insignificant but the subtle things of darkness creep into our lives conditioning us very slowly and we become more and more powerless to resist the evil around us thus we become unconcerned and even turn away from the things that glorify the Father.
Instead of emptying your mind...do this.....
Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.
