Rhode Island may be small, but it has big attractions, such as its beautiful shorelines. In life, you can sometimes feel small and insignificant. However, you are destined for great things. All you have to do is find your purpose.

My training and experience as a yoga instructor guides my interventions in being keenly aware of the mind/body connection and the impact of emotional health on the physical body. I ...
