Bedtime Journey Sleep Story
Picture

This Sleep Meditation is a soothing whimsical journey into a full body relaxation and then into an exploration of a lovely healing place: “The Enchanted Castle” and “The Secret Garden”.  The beautifully detailed description of these two places is adapted from two classic children’s works by Edith Nesbit and Frances Hodgson Burnett. (Public Domain Works).
My intention for this meditation is to guide you into a relaxed state where your body and mind are lulled to sleep by the magic of imagery and the bedtime story.
 
The soothing music called “New Day” by James Everett further reinforces the spirit of this meditation 
and continues after the narration so you can fully deepen into your healing rest.

Special Note:
This audio is for both children and the child within. It will be most effective if listening to stories is a helpful way for you to go to sleep.  However. if listening to a story (no matter how calming it is) is too stimulating and if you need  an extended period of time to wind down,  you may find this recording to works well as prelude to your sleep routine. In this case, after using it as a prelude you can try  following the track with audios like "Drift into Sleep" or "Sleep into Dreamtime" to fully open to a "deep and restful sleep."

Listener Feedback
 "Fantasy blended with calmness. Wonderment and serenity and more" 
​

"That was exceptional!! Truly moved by the story description and calming voice. The ending music was beautiful as well. I had a diffuser going so the description of the favorite scent was phenomenal!"


"How delightful, thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻I could feel the anticipation building up to be carried away into an enchanting story. I did not fall asleep, it is the early morning hours, yet how much fun to be transported through your soothing voice in this magical, beautifully described other world..."

 "Nice soothing voice and music. A different type of meditation, but I’m saving it. Sometimes I just want to hear a peaceful story."


​" You are one of my absolute favourites, Miss Glenda. Your voice is incredibly soothing and has such a lovely effect on my peacefulness as I meditate into sleep. I greatly look forward to new sessions of yours, as well as replaying the rest. You make my heart smile! Thank you for another beautiful piece."

" This is absolutely beautiful... best I have listened to for calming, releasing, soothing, fantasizing, and drifting into a wonderful sleep... 🙏💜💫 will definitely flag this beautiful dream weave for more listening.
Thank you...Om Shanti..💜"
