Rooted in \u003ci\u003ehiraeth\u003c\/i\u003e - a deep longing for home, it blends memory, myth and the sacred landscapes of Wales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDedicated to those raised without a full understanding of Welsh culture or language, it is both a reclamation and a healing. From childhood in Wales through loss, identity struggles and spiritual awakening, the journey embraces the authorʻs Welsh lineage and Hawaiian spiritual foundation. Guided by Spirit of Place, it evokes mountains, lakes, legends and the magic of the Mabinogi.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterwoven with the author's path as a Druid and celebrant, this is a story of belonging and return - to language, legacy and self, of coming back to one's trees.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDr Gwilym Morus-Baird says..\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eWho will love this? Anyone who craves nature writing with heart; or is curious about Welsh myth; the Welsh diaspora and friends of Wales; seekers who prefer reverence to grand claims; Druids and pagans interested in respectful practice; and memoir fans who want their spirituality lived, not lectured.

Deborah writes with a clarity of heart that can only come from walking through loss and finding, on the other side, a deeper homecoming tinged with Hiraeth. Her journey into the landscapes, language, and mythic strata of Cymru is guided by a tenderness that refuses to shy away from truth, and a devotion to honouring ancestry, land, and lineage in equal measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo witness her weaving diverse teachings with Welsh Indigenous spirit, and to see how she tends to both with such integrity, is deeply moving. Deborah's story is a reminder that the land remembers us, even when we have forgotten ourselves, and that when we return, it meets us with both challenge and belonging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI am humbled by her kindness and thoughtful detail, and honoured to have walked alongside even a small part of her journey. This book is a gift to anyone seeking reconnection, with place, with spirit, with deep feeling, and with the quiet truths that rise from the earth when we finally stop to listen. A beautiful offering from a woman who has learned to hear the whispers of her homeland once more.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Deborah Rose Halani Hutchings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1836887302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781836887300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Deborah R Halani\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/04\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.66d","brand":"Deborah Rose Halani Hutchings","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440636997887,"sku":"9781836887300","price":21.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6864d324-a726-4589-a6b9-7d6bcb231e85.jpg?v=1777183784","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/coming-back-to-my-trees-deborah-rose-halani-hutchings-9781836887300","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
