Welcome to bedtime stories for grown-ups, in which nothing much happens. You feel good, and

then you fall asleep

I'm Catherine Nikolai I read and write all the stories you hear and nothing much happens.

Audio engineering is done by Bob Widdersheim.

Thank you for listening,

and for sharing our stories with anyone you know who likes relaxation and good sleep.

You can also follow us on Instagram and Facebook and Twitter for a bit of extra coziness.

And if you need a little more nothing much in your life, head to nothing much happens.

where you can find some special pieces inspired by the show.

Hoodies have finally arrived.

Now, let me say a bit about how this podcast works.

I'm about to tell you a bedtime story and the story if you let it will become a place to rest your mind.

When your mind has a place to rest your mind. When your mind has a place to rest,

you will drop off into sleep.

It really is that simple.

It's when our minds run wild that we can't fall asleep. So follow

along with the sound of my voice and the simple shape of the tail. And probably before I finish you'll be sound asleep.

I'll read the story twice and I'll go a little slower the second time through.

If you wake again in the middle of the night, try just thinking your way back through whatever details from the story you can remember.

This is a kind of brain training.

Your sleep will improve over time,

and this response will only get stronger.
