About this Event
Join us for our second "Land Trust Days" event of 2026!
Michelle Morton, Certified Nature & Forest Therapy Guide, will lead us through an introduction to "Mindful Birding".
Mindful Birding is a practice combining mindfulness with the joy of birding. Connect with the natural world and the birds that inhabit it. This Mindful Birding experience, led by a certified Nature & Forest Therapy Guide, takes place along a relatively flat gravel and grassy trail. During this session, time is built in for quietly sitting, wandering, noticing birds, resting, and sharing observations as we travel up to 1.0 miles. Participants will be introduced to observation prompts, meditations, and/or journaling to promote a sense of presence and awareness.
With a background in elementary education and place-based learning, Michelle Morton (she/her) leads mindful outings that connect participants to nature, combining research on nature’s benefits with the power of reflection.
