Ornitherapy describes how wild birds provide a perfect gateway into immersion in the natural world, and the practice of Ornitherapy, or Mindful Birding, works in concert with birds and nature to provide benefits to our mind + body + spirit. Studies show many benefits of nature and birds on mental and physical well-being that include lowering blood pressure, boosting your mood, relieving stress, boosting your immune system, strengthening your vascular system, and reducing anxiety! Need we say more?
Ornitherapy is authored by a trio of birders led by Holly Merker, who specializes in delivering nature-based wellness programming using birds and birding activities. Holly and well-known co-authors Richard Crossley and Sophie Crossley provide a more mindful approach to birding that deepens our experiences with nature, and magnifies the wellness benefits demonstrated by a variety of independent research studies. Learn more about the many ways to bring the practice of Ornitherapy into your home or workplace.
