Welcome to bedtime stories for grown-ups, in which nothing much happens.

You feel good and then you fall asleep.

All stories are written and read by me, Catherine Nikolai, with audio engineering by Bob Wittersheim.

Nothing much happens is a proud member of the Curious Cast Podcast Network.

If you enjoy our stories, please share them any way you can, with anyone you know who

likes relaxation and good sleep.

And follow us on Facebook and Instagram for some extra coziness.

Let me say something about how to use this podcast.

I'm about to tell you a bedtime story.

It's a simple story without much action, but full of relaxing detail.

The story is like a nest, and we're enticing your fluttering mind to settle down into it.

I'll tell our story twice, and I'll go a bit slower the second time through.

If you find yourself still awake at the end of the first or second telling, don't worry.

It's a good rule of thumb in general, when you're trying to fall asleep.

Don't worry.

Relax.

Take your mind back to the beginning of the story, and walk yourself back through the details

that you can remember.

Especially any bit that felt particularly cozy.

You're training your brain and body to wind down, and the more often you do it, the faster

you will fall asleep.

So have a bit of patience at the beginning.
