As a child, my parents never read a single bedtime story for me or any of my siblings. Aesop’s fables were always my favorite since I learned reading. Late in my twenties, my then fiance used to tell me stories about Greek mythology and that was so soothing I would easily fall asleep. We parted ways and I missed those days until I found your channel. Thank you, Thomas. This story about appreciation aligns with my current quest about learning to be happy 😊

That sounded cold and short. Not meant to be. My grandma always told me about 5 stories at bed time. I loved hearing the same stories over and over again. I never even thought of someone reading to me. I was so lucky to have my grandma till I was 12. Ox

Me reading all the comments about not even making it 10mins- I’m not even tired but I’ll try it out. I get to all the cute compliments that make me smile like a little kid and I’m only 2mins in and then bam I wake up hours later and didn’t even hear a word of what happened in the story so here I am for round two to see if I make it a little longer. I love sleep videos so much. Thank you for providing them for us in bedtime story form🥺🖤

@kathyfrancis9229 11 місяців тому

I have suffered insomnia for four years. I have seen three Drs tried prescription medications herbal supplements relaxation techniques nothing has helped. Listening to this worked first time. I now listen to this every night. Unless you are getting three hours a night you will never know how wonderful this sleep story is. I strongly recommend this to anyone struggling with insomnia. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
