We live in a world that keeps us plugged in but feeling empty. Yoga is the bridge back. At YOGAwCHRIS, we use breathwork, gentle strength, and awareness to help you recharge from the inside out.

Located at the naval is our Golden Gate, the fire of our existence. Join me in this core-strengthening yoga sequence, 13 minutes - wear something you can move in!

RECHARGING FROM THE INSIDE OUT.

Breathwork
Our breath is both voluntary and involuntary. We often move through life unaware of this fundamental rhythm, allowing the environment to breathe us. But what happens when we consciously work with the breath? Why is it important to reclaim this sacred rhythm?

Gentle Strength

What if I told you that yoga can energize you just as much as a cup of coffee? The stimulation we seek from external sources is often just a conditioned chemical reaction. But vitality isn’t found in caffeine—it’s found in presence.

When we step into the quantum field of awareness—hovering just above the experience—pain dissolves. In this space, we can consciously rewrite our programming. Observing without attachment, and with loving awareness, we begin to see how suffering is created through habitual patterns. This is the essence of being “in the world but not of it.” In the spaciousness of emptiness, we become the authors of new action.

Awareness

With embodied awareness, there comes a time when we realize that the strength we’ve defined is no longer necessary. True strength is found in surrender. In this state, we experience the direct perception of emptiness—not as a void, but as a calm presence. Anger, fear, and all mental afflictions fall away. What remains is your essential nature—pure, steady, and whole.

Today in Your Practice…

As you move through your various postures today, I invite you to:

Observe your awareness of the inhale, exhale, and the space in between.
Notice how karmic seeds are ripening to form this exact moment—both the sensations you feel and the subject of your feeling.
