Synopsis

Mindful Birding shares my passion to begin birding for improved mindfulness, focus, and health. The book encourages readers to continue (or start?!) their journeys of personal growth.

Why start? Birding “pays back” on the investment, can be done with as much time as is available and is accessible. Birds and locations to watch them are everywhere and the cost of the hobby is minimal. Birding supports mindfulness by repeatedly bringing focus to the present moment. To see, hear and identify birds, we must tune out distractions and bring our attention to a fine point. Watching birds is a sport that can result in better productivity, health, and well-being. (OK maybe it’s not a sport but it SHOULD BE).

Why “lessons from a birdbrain”? This book provides straightforward tips and hints on getting started without getting overwhelmed. Birds teach us many important lessons on how to leverage our strengths and mitigate challenges. Birding taps into our inner child as we go about the scavenger hunt of tracking down a new bird. Engaging in a new hobby, such as birding, supports brain neuroplasticity. When we learn something new, we are actually rewiring our brains to adapt to new circumstances. I’m not even making this up.
By tapping into the physical and mental benefits of walking, quieting the mind, and connecting with nature, readers can find new perspectives and solutions, greater health, and serenity. By applying the techniques shared slowly, readers can build new and better habits by focusing on the amazing avian world around them.
