Ornitherapy: The Power of Birdwatching With Holly Merker
Start Date: 3/11/2023Start Time: 2:00 PM
End Date: 3/11/2023End Time: 4:00 PM

Event Description

Long to-do lists, digital demands and busy days! If we allow birds and nature to slow us down, we are practicing self-care. Learn why getting your daily dose of Ornitherapy is just what the doctor ordered.

Research shows that exposure to nature reduces stress, depression and anxiety while helping build a stronger heart and immune system. Birds are gateways into more profound experiences with nature, magnifying these benefits. Through observation, we can learn about birds and gain insight into our lives while exploring our connection to the world.

Within the program, we'll delve into our relationships with birds, find out how to maximize the wellness benefits of birding and learn about the latest research on the power of nature for overall well-being.

This event is part of the Conversations with Birds Saturday Event Series.
