Yoga teacher Rebecca Dobson is on a mission to help navigate stress with Well Woman Yoga Therapy & Goddess Gatherings in Henley

Women are renowned for juggling numerous responsibilities, leaving little time for self care. Rebecca understands this, and in the midst of all these demands, Well Woman Yoga emerges as a sanctuary for nurturing women’s health and wellbeing. Rebecca Dobson, an experienced yoga teacher and therapist and founder of GetCalmer, stands at the forefront of this holistic practice, offering a transformative experience grounded in her extensive expertise.

Rebecca brings more than 18 years of yoga teaching experience and 23 years of proficiency in Reiki and massage therapy. Her comprehensive understanding of women’s health, coupled with her therapeutic skills, provide a unique and deeply restorative approach through her weekly Well Woman Yoga classes and monthly Goddess Gatherings in Henley. Well Woman Yoga is designed specifically for women, addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of health. This practice combines gentle asanas, breathwork, and relaxation to support women’s well-being throughout different life stages – from menstruation to menopause and beyond.

“Unlike traditional yoga practices, Well Woman Yoga integrates therapeutic techniques that consider the unique needs of women’s bodies and minds,” Rebecca tells us. “Physically, these classes help to alleviate many common issues such as hormonal imbalances, pelvic floor issues and menopausal symptoms. The postures are tailored to enhance flexibility, strength, and balance, promoting overall vitality and comfort. Regular practice can lead to improved circulation, better posture, and reduced tension, contributing to a healthier, more resilient body through all major life cycles. The practice also offers significant emotional and mental benefits.”

Her classes create a calming space where women can reconnect with themselves, fostering deep relaxation and emotional balance, which helps manage stress. Rebecca’s personal journey through various life stages has been supported by yoga and Reiki, shaping her approach to teaching. Her classes are more than just physical exercises; they are a celebration of women’s health, offering a holistic experience that addresses the entire spectrum of wellbeing.

With her extensive background in therapeutic practices, Rebecca’s guidance provides a compassionate and informed approach to addressing women’s health challenges.
