Todd   Learn more about the differences between reflective and refractive telescopes, then we move on to the science of spectroscopy and learning what stars are really made of. But I’m sure you won’t stay awake and will find sleep knocking very soon as I read tonight’s work to you.   Happy sleeping. 😊   Story (07:38)   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Need help with a Podcast?</h2>   As you know I left my job at the end of July to spend more time with my family.   To earn a living, I have started a company to edit and produce podcasts.   From basic podcast edits to full handling of all post-production tasks including show notes and publication.   I’ve even found that doing all of the work setting up a podcast for clients is quite popular. It’s not hard, just time consuming for busy people with other work to prioritise.    So if you or someone you know needs a podcast edited or any podcast admin done, drop me a line at <a href= "mailto:dave@brightvoxaudio.com">dave@brightvoxaudio.com</a> or check out my site at <a href= "https://brightvoxaudio.com/">https://brightvoxaudio.com/</a>   Episode edits start at $15, lock in introductory pricing now!   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership</h2>   In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.   So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

Accepting Change with Gratitude – A Guided Meditation for Sleep

Bedtime Story to gently go to sleep. This is the story about Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha and his teaching. I set out on a journey, this time following the tracks of Siddhartha Gautama. My journey begins at the Buddha's birthplace, today's Lumbini, in Nepal's lowland region of Terai. The time and place into which Siddhartha was born, about 500 BC on the northern edge of the Gangetic plain was on the periphery of the developing north Indian civilisation. This is where his story starts.

On the footsteps of Siddhartha Gautama - a bedtime story

This story crackles and sparks the imagination, as it takes you through the wonderfully weird world, and history of fireworks.   From burning bamboo shoots to fire-breathing papier-mache dragons, history has shown time and time again the revered place that pyrotechnics have in our cultures. Our eternal fascination with light and flame are as unquenchable, as inextinguishable as the brightly burning ingenuity. So soften the lights, get cosy, it's time to unwind https://www.unwind.ie @unwindfoods

The Magical Book of Dreams - P1 📖

Tonight’s reading comes from, The New Democracy, by Walter Vrooman. Published in 1897, the book focuses on the events leading up to the U.S Presidential election in the year 1900. While I don’t have a personal allegiance to any political party in U.S politics, it’s interesting to see the similarities between what’s happening today, and what was taking place 120 years ago. If you do find the podcast beneficial, there is a small but hugely helpful favour that you can provide. Please share the podcast with a friend and if possible, kindly leave a review in your podcast app. There are a lot of people out there who are struggling with sleep, and my goal is to help as many people as possible get the sleep they need. If you would like, you can also say hello at Boreyoutosleep.com where you can support the podcast.

Since the human brain is programmed to be alert to our surroundings, silence may not be the best companion when trying to focus or sleep. Brown noise is excellent at masking surrounding sounds, which helps to boost concentration when studying or working and relax the brain when sleeping.
