What is Nature Journaling?
-Keeping an illustrated observation journal that highlights your interpretation of nature i.e. plants, wildlife, ecosystems and habitats and focuses on the details of those things.
-Nature Journaling will enrich your experiences and develop observation, curiosity, gratitude, reverence, memory, and the skills of a naturalist. It helps you discover, think, remember, and integrate new information with your existing knowledge. Train your mind, and the world will offer you its secrets of wonder and beauty.
Nature journaling is known to aid in mental health, strengthen our ability to notice the environment around us and it's beauty, and be creative!
Skill has nothing to do with it! Everyone of all ages, walks of life, and artistic skill level is welcome! Whether you create a “pretty picture” or not, it is all about your interpretation of what you are observing, how it makes you feel, what you wonder about it, and what you think of it! Inspiration is the name of the game! Walk with us through the seasons and be inspired!
