Is there a good video that someone can suggest that doesn't have the... spiritual aspects in it? I like the idea of yoga -- but all that talk about lights inside us saluting each other -- and aligning our spirits and that kind of thing just makes me feel funny and uncomfortable. I would like just a plain old working out video without the meditation and that kind of thing. Does anyone know of one?

I really like anything by Doug or Dave Swenson. They're Ashtanga style, and very intensive workouts, but I believe they have some beginner level tapes as well. There's nothing spiritual about them that I can think of, though you do always begin and end a practice with a seated silent meditation and breath exercise. This simply to focus your mind on your breath - there's nothing religious about it.
Also, search the boards for past posts on suggested videos from other folks.

Again, I will suggest Denise Austin. Some may find her annoying, I think she's great. She has a whole line of yoga tapes that are focused on pure physical fitness, ashtanga style, you work up a sweat! One is called "Fat-blasting Yoga" or another good one is "Power Yoga". Try 'em they are wonderful!
Hope that helps!
