Dr. Deborah Kern


Women are bombarded from all sides of our society with should’s and ought’s about what to do, be or say to become healthier, sexier, more beautiful, etc. The last thing they need is yet another prescription for how to live life. "Health is your ability to participate joyfully in life!" says Dr. Deborah Kern. "It is a complex interweaving interplay between mind, body, spirit and emotions."

She should know. Dr. Deborah Kern is a health scientist who dares women to live in harmony with the wisdom of their bodies. This conviction was inspired by her pioneering research showing that mind/body integrated approaches to exercise are more effective at reducing anxiety than conventional approaches.

"I believe that every woman has a powerful inner knowledge which can assist her in attaining physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. Therefore, my job is not to give lists of do's and don'ts. Instead, I encourage all women to listen and trust what is deep inside of themselves and to regard their bodies as allies which will point them in the right direction - not as enemies which they must constantly fight."

Dr. Kern is the author of "Everyday Wellness for Women" and co-author of "Create the Body Your Soul Desires: The Friendship Solution to Weight, Energy and Sexuality."

Her years of practice as a nurse, health educator, personal trainer, yoga and Nia teacher and yoga therapist have given her lifestyle insights not found in books. She has become very aware that when people live their lives disconnected from their bodies’ messages, they not only miss out on their bodies’ wisdom and opportunities to heal emotional issues, but they are also more likely to experience stress and dis-ease. When they pay attention, to their bodies’ messages, miraculous changes can occur.

Dr. Kern studied Nursing at Vanderbilt University and received a B.A. and an M.B.A. from the University of Texas at Austin. She received a Ph.D. in Health Sciences from Texas Woman’s University in Denton, TX. She is a Black Belt Nia Teacher, certified Integral Hatha Yoga Instructor, Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapist and Mindful Change Coach.

As a health scientist, speaker, author, mother and wife, Dr. Kern is passionate about creating health, balance, serenity and joy in her own life while assisting individuals and organizations to do the same in theirs.
