IU SPIRIT & PLACE Festival: Intro to Mindful Birding-Put Down a Field Guide, Pick Up Your Feel Guide

Free - Limited capacity. Registration required.
Mindful birding is a practice combining mindfulness with the joy of birding. Connect with the natural world and the birds that inhabit it, letting go of the need to identify (field guide), to focus on what we notice, feel, and wonder (feel guide).
Mindful Birding invites participants to slow down and connect with the natural world through attentive observation of birds and their habitats. Guided by experienced forest therapy practitioners, attendees will practice mindfulness techniques to enhance awareness, engage all senses, and cultivate a deeper appreciation for the rhythms, sounds, and beauty of local birdlife. This experience fosters calm, curiosity, and connection to both nature and community.
