Welcome to send me to sleep, the place to find relaxing stories for a good night's rest.

My name's Andrew. Thanks for joining me.

Tonight, I'll be reading The Three Musketeers by Alexander Damas, Chapter 7 and 8.

In the previous chapter, after hearing of the Cardinals' guards defeated defeated. Louis XIII requests to meet the four heroes, especially D'Artagnan, impressed by his youthful bravery.

However, when the king is unavailable, the musketeers, now fond of d'artagnan take him to play tennis.

At the tennis court, D'artagnan duels one of the cardinals top guards and triumphs again,

despite the controversy surrounding the fight.

The next day, the king finally meets them, praises their loyalty, and rewards d'artagnan with a generous sum of money for his valour.

Now that you're caught up with the story so far, let's get ourselves ready for sleep.

Start by taking a deep, relaxing bread.

And settle your body in whatever way feels most comfortable.

Now let any thoughts of the day drift away from your mind

and simply follow the sound of my voice.

So let your eyes fall heavy and your bread soften as we settle in for a peaceful night's sleep.
