The Subconscious Mind is referred to as Chitta. It's all in your brain. It is the repository of memories.
Here are embedded Samskaras, or impressions of behavior. It is one of the four components of Antahkarana or inner instruments, which include the spirit, intelligence, Chitta, and Ahankara (ego).
The mind is made up of wind. As a result, it is ephemeral, like the sky. Fire is used to provide intelligence.
Water is used to create Chitta. The ego is made of earth.
Vasanas, or subtle desires, and the vibration of Prana are the two sources of Chitta's life.
If one of them is under control, the effect is that both are under control.
