SUMMARY:Mindful Birding
DESCRIPTION:Mindful birding combines bird watching with mindfulness techniques to develop heighted awareness and a deeper experience. During this session\, we’ll use birds as our guide to help us slow and more deeply notice the world around us. \nInstructor Holly Merker will offer prompts and techniques during this guided walk or “sit spot” experience. Participants will also be provided “ornitherapy journals” to have a take-away from the experience to continue their mindfulness birding practice. \nNo prior experience with birds or mindfulness practice is necessary to attend. \nBenefits of Mindful Birding: \n\nEnjoy a reprieve from life stressors and pressures. \n\n\nStimulate and promote a more positive overall wellbeing\, mind and body. \n\n\nGain enhanced sensory awareness (sight\, sound\, smell\, touch). \n\n\nBetter understand birdlife through intentional observation. \n\n\nEnhance your observation skills\, in turn building a stronger foundation for overall bird identification. \n\n\nIncrease self-reflection through birds and the natural world. \n\nAbout our instructor: \nHolly Merker\, our facilitator and guide\, has a background in art therapy but today connects nature and birds to achieve the same result of mental\, physical\, and emotional wellbeing through her work in nature-based wellness practices. As an award-winning author\, mindful birding leader\, wellness counselor\, mindfulness mentor\, podcaster\, certified Nature and Forest Therapy Guide (ANFT) and Forest Therapy Practitioner (FT Hub)\, Holly offers gently guided experiences that incorporate accessibility and for all skill levels\, which are designed to be welcoming and inclusive to all people.
