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

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!
