Joe Harkness' acclaimed memoir about birds, mental health and finding meaning in nature.

When Joe Harkness suffered a breakdown in 2013, he followed his doctor's advice: medication helped, counselling reframed his thinking and mindfulness softened the noise inside his head. But it was birds - and the simple, absorbing act of watching them - that grounded him most deeply and helped him begin to accept who he was.

As birdwatching became a daily practice, Joe found calm, focus and meaning in the rhythms of the natural world. What began as a quiet form of personal therapy soon grew into something larger: a way of understanding himself, his anxieties and his place in the world.

First published in 2018, Bird Therapy struck a chord with readers navigating their own mental health journeys.

Combining memoir, nature writing and practical reflection, Bird Therapy invites readers to slow down, look up and rediscover the quiet, restorative power of noticing the birdlife around them.
