When life feels full, finding time for yourself can be a challenge. That’s where yoga may help. Not as another task on your to-do list, but as a way to create space for both body and mind. In recognition of Women’s Health Month, we’re shining a light on how yoga can support women in reconnecting with themselves and finding balance in their daily routines.
At Greencare, we’re proud to collaborate with Wellness Expert Charlotte Dodson, founder of CD Movement and Co-Founder of FLYWELL. Charlotte is an inspiring and passionate guide who shares positivity through yoga and movement. In this blog, she shares her insights on making yoga approachable and how women can begin their practice with confidence.
Do I need to be flexible to start yoga?
This is one of the most common questions Charlotte hears, and the answer is simple: absolutely not. “Yoga isn’t about how flexible you are,” Charlotte explains. “It’s about awareness and intention. Every posture can be adapted, no matter your experience level.” For women new to the practice, starting slowly with gentle poses or breathwork can be just as powerful as a full class.
The connection between body and mind
Yoga is more than just physical exercise, it’s a practice that helps balance the nervous system, support emotional wellbeing, and create clarity in daily life. For women juggling multiple responsibilities, yoga offers a practical way to recharge. As Charlotte shares, “When you move with mindfulness, you’re not only strengthening your body but also creating space in the mind to pause and reset.”
Bringing yoga into everyday life
Not everyone has an hour to roll out their mat and that’s okay. Charlotte believes yoga is about consistency, not perfection. A few mindful breaths in the morning, a short stretch before bed, or even pausing to notice your posture during the day all count.
How can I fit yoga into a busy schedule?
Charlotte often reminds women that “yoga doesn’t need to be complicated.” Even five minutes of gentle movement or meditation can shift how you feel. The key is building small, sustainable habits that fit into your lifestyle. Over time, these mindful moments add up, supporting both body and mind in meaningful ways. l count.
