Nothing much happens: bedtime stories to help you sleep

Written by: iHeartPodcasts
  • Summary

  • Having trouble sleeping? Join Yoga and meditation teacher Kathryn Nicolai for bedtime stories where nothing much happens to help you relax and sleep peacefully. The stories are a soft landing spot for your mind. Rather than letting your brain race through the same thoughts you’ve been chasing all day, we are taking a detour to a calm and comfy place. We tell the story twice and go a bit slower the second time.

    You can find our book, "Nothing Much Happens," in over 20 languages. Request your local bookseller to shelve it: https://bit.ly/Nothing-Much-Happens

  • Tell The Bees
    May 20 2024

    Our story tonight is called Tell the Bees, and it is a story that so many of you have asked for. I know that the podcast has seen many of you through difficult times and often you’ve asked for a story that might be a balm to a heavy or grieving heart, and this is my first attempt at that. If you want to avoid any heaviness tonight, that’s understandable, Marmalade and Crumb are always there for you instead. Tell the Bees is a story about a long walk through the clover on a path
    toward good listeners. It’s also about a rosebush with a new home, four leaf clovers, a house with shutters and gopher trails and saying things aloud when you’re ready to take your finger out of the dam.


    We give to a different charity each week and this week we are giving to Wellness Together, working to provide integrated mental health interventions for every student who needs help. Every single day. wellnesstogether.org/

    May 16 2024

    Our story tonight is called "Petrichor," and it’s a story about things getting greener as the spring rain falls. It’s also about a record player with a favorite album on the turntable, deer dozing in the grass and making a habit out of enjoying yourself.

  • A Month of Sundays
    May 13 2024

    Our story tonight is called A Month of Sundays, and it’s a story about finding a way to make time for rest and enjoyment. It’s also about a tin box of recipe cards, a neatly made bed with the corner folded down, aunts and idioms, porch swings and school buses and the delight of one of the best days of the week.

    We give to a different charity each week, and this week, we are giving to the Trio Animal Foundation; they assist shelters, rescues, and individuals by paying the medical bills of homeless pets.

Wonderful.

As an insomniac; this podcast series has been beyond helpful. I found this when I decided it was time to stop relying on sedatives almost every night.

If you have trouble sleeping try this. I can only remember a few times where I’ve had to listen to a second episode but it did the trick.

Soothing voice with lovely stories that are not long enough

This is a really enjoyable podcast. The narrator and the stories are perfect for relaxing and/ or easing into sleep with. The only thing I wish is that the stories were longer and ran about 40 minutes long as they are too short.

It works…

Nothing much happens but yet it’s just enough to keep your mind from wandering and staying too busy to fall asleep.

Amazing!

I've always struggled to fall asleep and this podcast has been so helpful. I've been using it for about 2 weeks every night and have fallen asleep within one episode each night.
