Feel Like Life Is Running You Over?

August 11, 2025 Christina Dumas

Overwhelmed, overbooked, and over it? Yoga isn’t about escaping life; it’s about taking back control. At YOGAwCHRIS, we blend mindfulness and movement to help you stop the chaos and breathe again. Start small. Start today. Take back your power with this intermediate Yin Yang Yoga class!

Start small.

Mindfulness

In Sanskrit, mind translates to mana, inherent tendencies, desire, or drive. The mind is the fertile soil of your thoughts. By acknowledging the thought as your own, the thought becomes a cycle in your reality. Believe in yourself and what you are doing.

Movement

In Sanskrit, the movement of the mind translates to Chitta. We detoxify Chitta through awareness. Awareness of the starting point and resolution. How does the cycle play out? How would you do things differently if you could? What is the paradoxical solution to end the cycle once and for all? Work it out on your mat and in day-to-day interactions.

Stop Chaos

In yoga, we aim to let go of the mind movement to end the cycles of suffering. Everything is coming from you. I want you to think of each Chakra point as a Manager Mind. Yoga classes are designed to bring awareness to the whole body, which is projecting from the mind. How are you understanding yourself through reading this newsletter? What are the thoughts? Observe them. Each chakra point holds a unique set of energetic principles that govern the state of mind.

Root (base of spine) - security, stability.
Sacral (stomach under belly button) - creativity, sexuality, pleasure, and emotions.
Solar Plexus (above naval) - personal power, willpower, self-esteem, and confidence.
Heart (strenum) - love, compassion, empathy, emotional connection.
Throat (hyoid bone) - communication, self-expression, authenticity.
Third Eye (in between eyebrows) - in tuition, insight, wisdom.
Crown (top of your head) - higher consciousness, spirituality, and universal energy.

Observe where your thought is coming from and the sensation in your body, rather than attaching to the thing. If your mind wanders, gently bring awareness back to your breath.
