CLIMATE WEEK: Journal, Meditation, + Bird Walk in Central Park

As part of Climate Week, this Bird Journaling & Meditation Walk is a gentle, curiosity-led experience where we slow down, reconnect with ourselves, and reconnect with the nature that surrounds us every day. Through birds, journaling, and meditation, we'll take time to notice the incredible wildlife that shares our city, reflect on our relationship with the natural world, and practice gratitude for the spaces we have the privilege to enjoy—and the opportunity to help protect. This is not about being "good" at meditation. This is not about having a perfect journal entry. This is definitely not about needing any experience. This is about trying something new in a space that feels safe, supportive, and maybe even a little magical. ✨ What to Expect 📝 30 minutes of guided journaling A beginner-friendly journaling practice designed to help you reflect, notice, and connect with yourself while exploring your relationship with nature and the world around you. 🐦 30 minutes of guided bird meditation We'll experience meditation through the sounds, movements, and presence of birds.

There is no "right" way to participate.
