KRIPALU SIGNATURE
This program—developed and led by our own faculty with the Kripalu methodology in mind—is offered exclusively at Kripalu.
For all levels and ages.
Observing birds in nature shares many qualities with mindfulness—the focused awareness and calm observation of both practices helps to soothe the mind, enabling you to connect to the world, and yourself, in profound new ways.
This program copresented by Mass Audubon and Kripalu faculty, introduces you to the meditative joys of bird watching. Come hike the lovely trails and explore the serene waterways of Kripalu’s Berkshire campus, and Pleasant Valley Sanctuary in Lenox, Massachusetts. You might encounter great blue herons, woodpeckers, and bald eagles along the way!
