Unbalanced AF

Smriti: The Memories You Can't Stop Replaying

Your brain is a highlight reel you didn't ask for. The cringeworthy thing you said in 2019. The relationship that wrecked you. The version of yourself you keep trying to get back to. This is smriti — the fifth vritti — and it's running your life more than you realize. In this 7-minute meditation, we get into the grooves. Not the good kind. The kind your mind slides into on autopilot, replaying the same stories, responding to people as who they were instead of who they are, living inside memories instead of learning from them. Turns out nostalgia can be just as much of a trap as trauma. The Samkhya tradition called it: every experience leaves an impression in the chitta [that's your mind]. Strong ones leave deep grooves. Your mind doesn't run those grooves because they're true — it runs them because they're familiar. So yeah. We're going there. 7 minutes. One question that might actually stop you in your tracks. And a reminder that this moment — right now — contains no past unless you drag it in yourself. Unbalanced AF is the alter ego of Balanced Planet Yoga. Less polished, more real.

You Came Back (That Counts)

Maybe you showed up every day this week. Maybe you didn’t. Either way—you’re here now. And that counts more than you think. This meditation is a reset, not a recap. A moment to notice what shifted, what didn’t, and what it felt like to actually pause in the middle of your life. No gold stars. No catching up. Just awareness. We reflect on the body, the breath, and the quiet relationship you’ve been building with yourself—whether it felt steady or messy or somewhere in between. Then we move forward… differently. Not with pressure, but with intention. One word. One feeling. Something you can actually carry into your week without forcing it. And we close where we’ve been pointing all along: You don’t need to find your way home. You just need to remember how to return. ✨ If you’ve been doing the work (or avoiding it), this is your moment to land. #studentoflife #meditation #balancedplanetyoga #unbalancedAF #yoga

Stop Stealing From Your Own Life

You’re not stealing wallets. But you are stealing moments. In this meditation, we explore Asteya—the practice of non-stealing—and flip it on its head. Because the real theft isn’t out there… it’s the constant pull away from right now. The scrolling. The comparing. The rushing ahead. The subtle belief that what’s happening next will matter more than what’s happening now. Yeah… that. This practice calls it out gently—but clearly. And then offers something better: → staying for the moment you’re actually in → noticing what you already have access to → realizing you’re not behind (even if your brain insists you are) Because when you stop stealing from the present… you finally get to receive it. ✨ If your mind is always somewhere else, this one brings you back—without forcing it.

Protect Your Energy (No, Seriously)

This one isn’t about doing less. It’s about wasting less. In today’s meditation, we’re working with brahmacharya—not the outdated, panic-inducing version, but the real one: the right use of your energy. Where it goes. Who gets it. What quietly drains it… and what actually gives it back. Because here’s the truth—your energy is getting spent whether you’re paying attention or not. And most of us are leaking it in places that don’t deserve it. This practice brings you back to something simpler and more honest: → noticing what depletes you → recognizing what restores you → making one small, real choice to protect your energy today No perfection. No overthinking. Just awareness and direction. ✨ If you’ve been feeling scattered, drained, or pulled in ten directions… this is your reset. #unbalancedAF #balancedplanetyoga #meditate #yoga

Breathe, Bestie

Life is loud. Your brain has a group chat. And somehow you’re expected to be calm, productive, emotionally mature, and hydrated. Nope. Not today. In this 7-minute guided meditation, it’s just Jenna helping you do the simplest thing that changes everything: breathe without trying to “get it right.” You’ll notice the urge to control your breath (because… of course you will), and then you’ll ease into watching instead. One side of the breath at a time. No performance. No fixing. Jenna guides your awareness through the body—chest rising and falling, feet and legs grounding, spine lifting—and into a bigger sense of presence: like you’re breathing not only through your lungs, but through your whole being… even the space around you. Then we soften into a quick reflection—what did I learn about myself this week? what can I carry forward?—and finish with a hand-to-heart moment and a grounded gratitude phrase: “I am grateful for this practice and for the person I am becoming.” Tiny practice. Real impact. Press play when you’re spiraling, buffering, or just need to remember you’re still in there.
