Debbie Smith discovered a love of yoga when she came to India in 2018. During initial yoga teacher training, she became especially fascinated by the power of Pranayama breathwork & meditation, and so began a phenomenal pursuit of practice and knowledge in this field. Having consumed studies by internationally respected leaders in the field, and intrigued by countless therapeutic physical and emotional benefits, she completed several international courses, including the prestigious Meditation instructor course of Spiritual Light Dhyan Kendra, Uttar Pradesh. This is a passion she loves to share.
