Fitness Expert Instructs Readers on How to Honor God With Their Bodies

Author and health and fitness professional Joseph Christiano explains that if you let your physique fall into complete disarray by lack of physical fitness and poor nutrition, it does God a disservice.

(PRWEB) May 9, 2004

“Bodily exercise profiteth little; but godliness is profitable unto all things," says the author of the First Epistle to Timothy in the Bible. But in his latest release My Body, God’s Temple, author and health and fitness professional Joseph Christiano explains that if you let your physique fall into complete disarray by lack of physical fitness and poor nutrition, it does God a disservice.

In My Body, God’s Temple (Siloam, May 2004, $13.99) Christiano shows that your motivation for better health and getting in shape must be based on being a faithful steward of God’s temple—your physical body.

Drawing an analogy from the building of King Solomon’s temple, Christiano provides a complete step-by-step guide showing you how to obtain the lifestyle results you have always yearned for. My Body, God’s Temple explains exactly what foods you should eat and the proper methods to maintain your body's best health. Christiano states, “There is no getting around it; to improve your health and appearance you have to include healthy lifestyle practices in your life, but as you develop your motive for honoring God with your body, it becomes a temple of honor, and therefore the effort will not be in vain.”

Written in an easy-to-read style, My Body, GodÂ’s Temple also contains a twelve-month temple reshaping protocol that covers all aspects of nutrition, exercise, and building your relationship with God. Christiano outlines the unique characteristics of each body type and helps readers learn which foods and exercises bring the most benefit.

Among the many topics covered in My Body, GodÂ’s Temple are:

Detox and colon cleansing—why it is important to stop polluting your body and how to make it the starting point of your health journey The importance of attitude and why you want to avoid the “diet mentality” How to identify what are the best “food types” to jump-start your metabolism today and why certain foods will either help or hinder weight loss The necessity of a positive thought life and how negative thinking affects every aspect of your existence How to implement a fitness protocol that covers every aspect of your body, mind, and spirit connection

My Body, GodÂ’s Temple is not just another fitness book; it a guide that will aid anyone that seeks to no longer walk in defeat but to build a victorious body that honors the Creator.
