About us
A welcoming gathering for people who want to slow down together in a fast-paced world. ☘️
We started with a walk. Now we're expanding — and there's something here for everyone.
🐦 Birdsong Slow Walks Gentle, mostly silent walks in nature using birdsong and natural sounds as anchors to the present moment. No pressure, no rush, no experience needed. Just noticing together.
🔭 Social Birdwatching A casual, social birding experience for anyone curious about the birds around us. We move slowly, share sightings, use eBird and Merlin to identify together, and contribute to citizen science. Come for the birds, stay for the company.
🍽️ Mindful Eating A mindfulness meditation practice that brings full, gentle attention to the experience of nourishment. We gather around a table, slow down, and let food become an anchor for awareness — together.
🙌 Reiki Sessions Individual outdoor Nature Reiki sessions and indoor one-to-one sessions available by booking. Focused on deep rest and nervous system regulation, with a gentle Reiki presence held throughout.
Open to all ages and genders.
Birdsong Walks and Experiences is part of Here Aware: a holistic wellness passion project rooted in the belief that presence, nature, and human connection are not luxuries. They are necessities. What started as a personal practice of mindfulness, Reiki, and a deep love of birds has grown into a community of people finding their own way back to themselves — one slow walk, one shared sighting, one quiet meal at a time.

🐦 Amateur Birdwatching Walk: Montjuïc
## Amateur Birdwatching Walk: Montjuïc
Birdwatching is, at its heart, a practice of attention. You slow down, you look up, and suddenly the world has more in it than you noticed before.
Grab your binoculars, cameras, and curiosity — it’s time for a relaxed amateur birdwatching walk around Montjuïc.
This is a casual, social birding meet-up for anyone who enjoys watching, identifying, and photographing birds. We’ll move slowly through the area, stopping often to scan green spaces and trees, sharing sightings and tips as we go. The usual birds in the area would be: Hoopoe, Great Tit, Blue Tit, Coal Tit, Robin, Long-tailed Tit and who knows? We might spot more!

Birdsong Mindfulness Walks every Sunday
Birdsong Mindfulness Meeting Point - Mirador del Migdia, 41°21'37.3"N 2°09'36.0"E, Barcelona, ESWhat if your weekend didn’t rush you, but softened you?
This gentle, nature-based mindfulness walk is an invitation to slow down, listen to birdsong instead of notifications, and reconnect with yourself through simple presence. No experience needed, just comfortable shoes and a willingness to be here.
Birdsong Mindfulness Walks 🐦 🌿
- Slow, nature-based mindfulness in Barcelona
- Slow, mindful meditation walk (not fitness or hiking).
- Birdsong as a mindfulness anchor (not birdwatching).
- Join our Whatsapp group for walk updates
Join a slow, mostly silent walk through the Montjuïc area, guided by birdsong, breath, and gentle presence.
This is an invitation to step out of the rush of everyday life and reconnect with your body, your senses, and the natural world around you.
Just walking, listening, and being here.
What we’ll do ✨
- We begin with a short, gentle grounding practice.
- We walk at a slow, mindful pace (intentionally slower than a usual walk).
- We use birdsong and natural sounds as anchors for awareness.
- We pause at times to listen, sense, or simply be still.
- We close with a few moments of shared stillness.
A note on birds 🐦
- This is not a birdwatching walk, though we use birdsong as a meditation anchor.
- If you’re curious, I’m always happy to chat after the walk about birds we noticed by sight or sound. We hold a monthly gathering for amateur birdwatching.
Language 🗣
- Guided talks and meditations are currently offered in English.
- I’m learning Spanish and Catalan and hope to offer guided practices in those languages in the future.
Group size 👥
- We began with very small, intimate groups due to individual Reiki sessions. As interest has grown, more spots are opening and the structure is kept simple so we can walk together more spaciously.
- Returning walkers may occasionally join beyond the usual number, as they are already familiar with the pace and nature of the practice.
💛 If you’ve joined before and would like to come again, please join the waitlist or message me directly. I’ll happily mark you as going.
About the practice 💛
I’m a mindfulness teacher in training, and part of this journey includes learning through practice. You may be gently invited to share feedback to help me grow as a facilitator.If any mindfulness teacher trainees would like to co-lead or guide a future walk, feel free to reach out. I’d love to share the space.
Cost 🌿
- These walks are currently offered for free as a way of giving back.
- Donations are welcome to help cover Meetup costs and keep the walks accessible: https://www.hereaware.com/donate
Weather 🌧
- Light rain can be part of the experience. Routes are chosen with mostly concrete paths, often around Jardins de Mossèn Cinto Verdaguer.
- In case of heavy rain, strong wind, or storm alerts, the walk will be cancelled for safety reasons.
Location and confirmation 📍
- The walk takes place in the Montjuïc area.
- The exact meeting point pin will be shared via private comments or via Whatsapp once you’ve RSVP’d, a couple of days before the walk.
- Please confirm your attendance by sending a WhatsApp message to:📲 +34 722 692 960

- We begin the grounding at the start time, with a 5-minute grace period.
- Please arrive a little early to settle in comfortably.
- If you’ll be late, text me at least 15 minutes in advance and I’ll share a live location pin.
- If you arrive during the grounding or while we’re walking, you’re welcome to join quietly.
- Phones will be invited onto silent mode during the walk.
Consent and phones 🎧
The only consent I’ll ask for is for audio recording (for my mindfulness teacher training). I won’t take photos during the walk. You’re welcome to take photos after, and I gently invite minimal phone use during the experience.
Thank you for helping keep the space calm, respectful, and spacious for everyone 🌿
