PEEC News:

Kristi Beguin will offer another of her popular classes, called “Get Grounded,” 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, June 15.

After meeting at PEEC, participants will spend the morning connecting with nature in an unusual way. While traveling scenic trails off the beaten path, attendees will have the chance to get their feet dirty and explore concepts of natural movement, grounding, mindfulness and balance.

In this age of fast-paced, high-tech lifestyles, this class will allow individuals to slow down, observe, breathe and enjoy the outdoors in a deeply experiential manner.

Beguin is a scientist, an environmental consultant and expert herbalist. She has practiced her skills through outdoor activities, martial arts, writing, and making medicines. Her medical applications incorporate Western herbal medicine, traditional Chinese medicine and flower essence therapy.

Advance registration is required. The class is designed for adults and costs $25 for non-members or $20 for PEEC members. Further information may be found on the PEEC website http://www.PajaritoEEC.org or by calling 662-0460.

The class will meet at PEEC (Pajarito Environmental Education Center), 3540 Orange St., before moving out to a nearby trail.
