  • Summary

  • Having trouble sleeping? Join Yoga and meditation teacher Kathryn Nicolai for bedtime stories where nothing much happens to help you relax and sleep peacefully. The stories are a soft landing spot for your mind. Rather than letting your brain race through the same thoughts you’ve been chasing all day, we are taking a detour to a calm and comfy place. We tell the story twice and go a bit slower the second time.

    You can find our book, "Nothing Much Happens," in over 20 languages. Request your local bookseller to shelve it: https://bit.ly/Nothing-Much-Happens

  • Closing Up Shop

    Closing Up Shop
    May 6 2018

    Our story tonight is called “Closing up shop” and it’s a story about a bookshop at the end of the day. Lev Grossman wrote in The Magician’s Land “It didn’t matter where you were, if you were in a room full of books you were at least halfway home.” If that feels true to you, then this story is for you. Beyond the friendliness of the company of books, this story is also about being in a safe place and looking out from it at one’s leisure, and about the lovely feeling of anticipating something nice.

    So get cozy and ready to sleep.

Wonderful.

As an insomniac; this podcast series has been beyond helpful. I found this when I decided it was time to stop relying on sedatives almost every night.

If you have trouble sleeping try this. I can only remember a few times where I’ve had to listen to a second episode but it did the trick.

Soothing voice with lovely stories that are not long enough

This is a really enjoyable podcast. The narrator and the stories are perfect for relaxing and/ or easing into sleep with. The only thing I wish is that the stories were longer and ran about 40 minutes long as they are too short.

It works…

Nothing much happens but yet it’s just enough to keep your mind from wandering and staying too busy to fall asleep.

Sleep Achieved.

Stories are soothing. The narrator does an excellent job, both at reading and tone.

Amazing!

I've always struggled to fall asleep and this podcast has been so helpful. I've been using it for about 2 weeks every night and have fallen asleep within one episode each night.
