About the Deborah Charnes:Diagnosed with a digestive disorder when she was just a child, Deborah has always been concerned about her diet. As a college student in Mexico City, she learned the best ways to soothe her pains were with herbal teas and relaxation techniques including
pranayam and meditation. Therefore, when she studied Yoga Therapy, she chose to specialize in the digestive fire (
agni). An entire chapter in her book, "
From the Boxing Ring to the Ashram" focuses on Ayurvedic understanding and approach to the digestive system. Plus, another chapter is all about
sattvic (pure, balanced) diet and living.
In 2011, Deborah left the high-pressure demands as an international corporate marketing communications strategist. Moving forward, she dedicated that same energy to positive transformation—of herself and others. In fact, she vowed to never stop learning or sharing.
Now, Deborah draws on her decades of training and practice to help others through simple techniques that can be practiced anywhere, anytime. The Certified Yoga Therapist (C-IAYT) also has the rank of E-RYT 500 (Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher), and is a Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Provider (YACEP).
