  • Echoes from the Mountain - Story Time Friday


    Join Loraine from Gracious Mountain Therapies on a journey into classic tales and stories of resilience and nature.

    The first book Loraine is reading is Heidi by Johanna Spyri, a childhood favourite of Loraines' and one that instilled her love of goats, so much so that she ended up being a goatkeeper and owning her own goat farm in Wales where, amongst other things she wrote her own story about a goat, 'Monty gets Stuck'. Loraine still has a few goats today, on a smallholding in Norfolk and loves telling stories about goats!

  • The Prophet - Chapter 4 - Children

    The Prophet - Chapter 4 - Children
    Nov 15 2024
    I was given my first copy of Khalil Gibran’s ‘The Prophet’ when I was about 16 years old by my drama teacher at the time. I have since read it many times, bought other copies and given them to friends and acquaintances over the years. It is a book to read and reflect upon its messages. I have found it so profound in different times of my life and also has given me much comfort.

    It took Khalil Gibran 11 years to write this book and it is the first part of a trilogy – The Prophet, The Garden of the Prophet and The Death of the Prophet and are among about 25 books that he wrote. ‘The Prophet’ is his most famous book and has sold millions of copies world wide.

    Khalil Gibran was born in Lebanon in 1883 in a village called Bisharri and moved to America with his family in 1895 when he was 12 years old. As a Poet, Artist and Writer, Khalil Gibran studied in Paris and then moved back to America.

    He passed away at the age of 48 in 1931 and his body was shipped back and cremated in Lebanon.

    I hope you enjoy listening to ‘The Prophet’ and its messages as much as I enjoyed reading and reflecting on them.
