Happy New Year, friends, and welcome back! 🌟 Tonight, I invite you to relax and drift off to sleep with a whimsical and enchanting bedtime story. In this episode, I’ll be narrating The Windfairies, a delightful tale by Mary De Morgan. This gentle story is both soothing and enchanting, making it the perfect way to unwind at the end of your day.

As always, we’ll begin with a short relaxation exercise to help you settle in and prepare for a peaceful bedtime experience. So, turn off the lights, get cozy, and let the calming imagery and dreamy narration guide you into a restful slumber. 🌙

Sweet dreams,
Joanne

Welcome friends! I hope you all had a safe and joyful holiday season.

As we step into the new year, I want to take a moment to thank you for your unwavering support as my family and I navigate my daughter’s illness. Your kindness and encouragement have been a source of strength and inspiration, and for that, I am deeply grateful.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

May 2025 bring you endless happiness and fill your days with the things that bring you the greatest joy. Wishing you a year filled with peace, love, and all the blessings you deserve!

Tonight, we’ll embark on a journey of relaxation, gently preparing both mind and body for a peaceful and restorative sleep. I’ll be sharing a delightful short story by one of Canada’s most cherished authors, Lucy Maud Montgomery.

Known for her beloved Anne of Green Gables series, Montgomery’s writing is a masterful blend of vivid imagery and heartfelt nostalgia, making her stories perfect for this reflective time of year.

As we welcome a brand new year, I’ve chosen to rebroadcast Bertie’s New Year, a charming tale that I hope will bring you comfort and joy as you drift off to sleep.

Happy New Year my sleepy listeners! And may you have the sweetest dreams the whole year through! Cheers to you all!

Your friend,
Joanne

Greetings, friends, and welcome to this cozy Christmas episode! I’m so excited to share this heartwarming Italian Christmas story that’s close to my heart. It’s a tender tale by Nora A.

As we celebrate this holiday season, I want to extend my warmest wishes to you and your loved ones. Whether you’re celebrating or simply enjoying the peace this time of year brings, may it be filled with joy, comfort, and the company of those who mean the most to you.

Thank you for being part of this wonderful community. I’m truly grateful for your support and connection.
