Peg's Yoga Class Schedule at Eureka Community Hospital

I have long been interested in yoga, a practice that helps unite the body, mind and spirit. Yoga is about a way of seeing, opening up to the present possibilities of our body and mind. It requires that we accept ourselves unconditionally, yet work with our edges to expand beyond our present way of being. Art is about these things also; so the discipline of yoga helps to inform my creative practice as an artist.

At age 50, I decided to pursue formal certification as a yoga instructor. Since 2007 I have had the privilege and joy of teaching yoga, encouraging students to develop self-awareness and watching them blossom as they cultivate playfulness and self-acceptance in their movements. The practice of hatha yoga postures helps increase energy, improve mobility and relieve stress so that we can engage more fully in Life.

My desire to teach yoga stems from the joy, stability, and self-acceptance yoga has brought to my life. May you be enriched by these thoughts about this ancient creative discipline.
