Hi everyone, my name's Otis Gray and you're listening to Sleepy.

A podcast where I read old books to help you get to sleep.

I have a really wonderful Sherlock Holmes bedtime story for you tonight,

but before I get to it, I just want to say that this episode is very proudly sponsored by Better Hell.

As springtime is rolling around, this is usually the time when I get more energized and busier

and invite more stress into my life. So I'm saying this as much to myself as to you right now.

In a world that's telling you to do more sleep less and grind all the time, you have permission to

take care of yourself and do less and maybe try some therapy. Better Hell is customized online therapy

that offers video, phone and even live chat sessions with a licensed therapist who gets you

and can help you work through whatever might be stressing you out. For me, I stress out when I do

too many things and I feel like I'm spread too thin and I'm letting people down because of it.

Well talking to my therapist helps so much in breaking down what I'm feeling,

talking about why I'm feeling it and figuring out a healthier lifestyle that works.

Every single time I'm done talking with my therapist, I feel like a weight has been lifted and

that stress is always so much less than it was before I talked to them.

Well Better Hell can set you up with someone just like that. You can take that stress, break it down

and leave you feeling like you can sleep easier at night. So thank you Better Hell for sponsoring

my show and you listening, you can give Better Hell a try and see if online therapy can help

lower your stress. Our listeners get 10% off your first month at BetterHell.com slash sleepy.
