'When the student is ready, the teacher appears' and I hope that outcome will be encouraged by this book.and/or the teacher is a bird :).How to Use This BookI intend for this book to be read daily for 21 days to help readers create a new habit in mindfulness. This correlates with the length of time it takes for a habit to take hold. I also include a 'birding hacks' chapter that covers everything I wish I knew and learned through trial and error about birding and bird photography.Who Is My Target Audience Ohio residents, beginning birders, young people, old people, and anyone who is open to personal growth will benefit from hearing these simple lessons in a new way.Why Did I Write This I find birdwatching and bird photography enjoyable and rewarding as a hobby. At first, though, I found it overwhelming. The material I found about birds I encountered in Ohio was extensive. Um, do I need to know how many eggs they lay and what their breeding rituals include to spot them in the field . So, this book is a beginner's guide to some of the birds you would commonly see in Ohio.I have also been studying mindfulness and the pursuit of serenity. For me, there are direct connections between birdwatching and mindfulness. When I am outdoors with my binoculars and camera, I have quiet time to slow down, be present and enjoy the amazing natural world. Plus, I get the chance to work through challenges in the background while I break from my normal breakneck pace.So, if you enjoy this book, tell your friends, buy more books, and for heaven's sake, enjoy this very moment. The present is the gift we have today.'The best way to capture moments is to pay attention. This is how we cultivate mindfulness.' Jon Kabat-Zinn.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Akison, Jayne (illustrator). nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Lessons from a Birdbrain, Migration Celebration introduces you to 21 birds that can be found migrating through Ohio during spring and fall. I took the photos in various locations, largely central Ohio from late September to December. You will notice a wide variation in the quality of the photos because I am a novice photographer. And like the birds migrating through, I'm still growing and transforming and let's face it, some phases of my transformation are lovelier than others. Along with each bird, I include a 'birdbrain' lesson that introduces a concept that resonated with me and I associated with the bird and photo mentioned. These are simple things that for whatever reason, I didn't really learn until later in life when I learned to slow my mind a bit using techniques of mindfulness. Or I need to learn again (and again) to catch on. Birding and mindfulness go hand in hand for me because when I am out birding with my camera and binocs I am focused. I am present and intently tuned in to the world around me. And the moment I go to take a photo, I am 100% dedicated to the task at hand quite literally focusing (well attempting to focus.I'm a very novice photographer so sometimes it works better than others.) I imagine it similar to an athlete in a critical moment of a game, where time slows briefly, I still my breath and zoom in for the win. Too corny Maybe.but it works for me. In my attempts to get great pictures of birds, I also learn repeatedly the lessons of attachment, expectations, success and failure. I can't control what birds will be around when I go out, what the light will be when the perfect bird lands in my range or even if my camera battery is about to konk out. I can prepare, I can plan but I can't force outcomes. And I can learn to take the failures in stride OR I can brood, crank, stomp and whine. This ability to allow brief moments of disappointment or elation to pass has been a key for me to rise above the tendency I have to get caught up in a thought groove, good or bad. The greatest gift I've received from birding is that ability to step aside and 'see' my thoughts and feelings from a distance, so to speak. I have specifically selected 21 chapters to coincide with the number of days it takes us humans to have a habit begin to take hold. During the course of 21 days, I encourage you to read a chapter and reflect on the lesson at hand. Can you step aside and let a worry pass because worrying is just wasted energy Can you mindfully experience a precious moment more fully by recognizing its impermanence Spring and fall are particularly transitional in Ohio and the birds who travel through at the time are fleeting in every sense of the word. More important than finding a warbler you've never seen before, I hope you find a 'birdbrained' lesson or two or ten that speak to you. In other words, you hear the right idea at the right time in your life that allows you to step aside from your thoughts, get untangled from a feeling and regain balance and serenity from the lesson that bird(s) bring(s).
