Thank you 😊🙏

As a child, my parents never read a single bedtime story for me or any of my siblings. Aesop’s fables were always my favorite since I learned reading. Late in my twenties, my then fiance used to tell me stories about Greek mythology and that was so soothing I would easily fall asleep. We parted ways and I missed those days until I found your channel. Thank you, Thomas. This story about appreciation aligns with my current quest about learning to be happy 😊

Happiness is a state of mind. It's a choice regardless of the circumstances . Ox
That sounded cold and short. Not meant to be. My grandma always told me about 5 stories at bed time. I loved hearing the same stories over and over again. I never even thought of someone reading to me. I was so lucky to have my grandma till I was 12. Ox
I'd like to read you Greek mythology
Sorry to hear your struggles❤ hope all is well & hope these stories will be a continuous help for you xoxo
My anxiety has me all upset. This channel helps me not to feel so alone.
Prayers and comfort to you ❤ no one is truly alone in this world.
Prayers of peace and love to you ❤🙏
Same here 👍🏻😬
❤
Me too! I think about other people falling asleep listening to the same thing. And it helps me feel less alone. ❤️
Ive listened to this at least 4 times and i never remember what the story actually is. Im usually asleep in ten minutes. I suffer depression and anxiety and i don't sleep unless i have youtube for a story. So this means a lot ❤
We're so glad to help you and offer a safe space 💙
Wow. Bout to play some gonna see if it helps me sleep. Lol. I need something.
We gift you Healing Blessings & hugs from New Zealand🇳🇿 take care 🤗🫶🥰

I'm pregnant at the moment and I seem to be suffering from pregnancy induced insomnia. So these videos have been really helpful. So thank you so much.
Awwww ❤ Congrats 👏🏻 I hope all is well with you and the Baby. 🩵🩷 God Bless
Hows the baby!
I just had my first daughter
@@coryschilder4568 I still haven't had him yet, I'm booked in to be induced tomorrow so I'll let you know :) hope you and your daughter are doing well.
@@Elina_Strongbearsending you and your family love and light ❤❤❤
Me reading all the comments about not even making it 10mins- I’m not even tired but I’ll try it out. I get to all the cute compliments that make me smile like a little kid and I’m only 2mins in and then bam I wake up hours later and didn’t even hear a word of what happened in the story so here I am for round two to see if I make it a little longer. I love sleep videos so much. Thank you for providing them for us in bedtime story form🥺🖤

I have suffered insomnia for four years. I have seen three Drs tried prescription medications herbal supplements relaxation techniques nothing has helped. Listening to this worked first time. I now listen to this every night. Unless you are getting three hours a night you will never know how wonderful this sleep story is. I strongly recommend this to anyone struggling with insomnia. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I hear you...also suffer from insomnia and have tried EVERYTHING under the sun...this most DEFINITELY has helped me...
Have you tried joining a fight club?
Goes to show you it's all in your head

I’m so excited to go to sleep tonight lol Edit: it’s now 6:30am and as usual, I went fast to sleep while listening to your voice & story, so I don’t know what happened lol. Listening to the rest now as I make coffee. Thank you for providing a comfortable , cozy place to go on the internet.
Lol
Yes!
😂
I wish i would wake up 6:30 and have the whole day before me
What was it about? I still haven't worked it out
Listened to this every night this week. Noooo idea how it finishes!!!!! Thanks .
Give it one more week 😄 At least it's sure that you'll have good nights of sleep!
Real Men really do enjoy a good story. I only get about 6 1/2 hours of sleep, but these stories don't "Steal Time". Instead, I wake up refreshed every morning.

Thomas, your voice is the best story telling voice ever. You always send me off to sleep in a matter of minutes, so it takes ages for me to actually hear the entire story 😂
So glad it works for you Joanna!
Well Thomas I am the odd one around because I listen to your stories during the day because your voice makes me feel relaxed and I want to hear the whole beautiful stories
We're in 🥰 it's 6:00am nzt. Enjoy a Blessed day 💐🌞💐
You're not alone❤I'm listening for the story.
The astronomer is a night owl always lost in the star’s and heaven’s, perhaps he should get lost in the fluffy white clouds and beautiful morning sky. Loved today’s story I slept well. 💙
I've just discovered this channel. Was just given a poor health diagnosis - this helps me calm my mind and ailing body. Thank you, Thomas, for sharing your soothing voice and peacefully helping others reclaim their rest. God Bless. 💙🩵
Sending prayers for healing ❤🙏
@soulstaradventurer8889 Thank you, Immensely 💙🩵🤍

I have also received a horrible health diagnosis. I'm going to give this a try. Hopefully the butterflies in my tummy will fly away and leave me alone.
Golden Sunrise 🌅 let's go on a sacred journey...thank you 🫶 🌞 🫶
Thank you for enriching our reality 🥰 ... feel so Blessed to be a part of our wonderess Universe 🌌🌠🌃our beautiful planet 🌏🛸🌎🛸🌍
I couldnt sleep one night, found this app in a simple search, put in my earbuds, and listened to a smooth soothing narrator's distinct voice, basically reading a bedtime story to me as I fell into my dreams.. I recommend this app for people who wanna chill out at the end of the day- its magnificent!
I've watched this video 6 times so far and I always fall asleep before the story starts 😅
Wish I was as lucky as you. Lol I have to concentrate 😆
This is the *best* sleepy-time narration I've experienced on KZhead. Like many others here, I struggle with insomnia, but I hardly make it 10 mins before consciousness fades while listening to this. It must be my 6th time listening. Literally nothing has worked so consistently for my insomnia. Thank you for this.
My new favorite sleep story. If I wake- I just restart the story and fall quickly back asleep. Don’t know the story- But I love it. 😊 Sleep well and safe friends.
This sounds even more relaxing when you put your phone under your pillow and listen to it❤
Not good for your health
On airplane mode you can fly to the next galaxy, your pillow will be well rested also
I just keep listening to the first 10 minutes every night.😄
😢 Emotional
I have insomnia and I'm usually awake most of the night. I listen to this story for the 1st time and was asleep within the 1st 10 minutes. Haven't a clue what the story was about but I've had my 1st good night sleep in which seems ages. I'll be listening to this again tonight. Thank you so much. ❤
I also have insomnia, if i could just focus on his story telling, i would probably also fall to sleep 😴
So glad this story helped you fall asleep 💙
Listening this in a small Greek village just next to Olympus. I also love stars (have a tattoo with the Ursa major constellation)
I fell asleep at the part with the villagers showing him beauty in the day. He was in the flower field when I last saw him in my mind before drifting of into sleep. This kinda story telling is defently what works for my insomnia, and your voice is soothing.
I am deeply grateful. I have a strong fever and I am suffering right now. This relaxes me and comforts me. It even makes me smile, because I am passionate about the simple things in life and the stars. I live in the moment as much as I can. Presence is peace. 🌈✨🌌🍊
Thomas u saved my life ... Cheers dude 🥂
So sleepy.. relxaing
This Astronomer has a lot of similarities with me. I dig this channel very much for its stories. Very calming soothing voice as well. Thank you for creating this channel. 🙏🏼🌙🩵
Gaze open and receptive
I swear this is day 6 of listening to this before I sleep.. But to this day i have absolutely no idea what the story is about.. I fall asleep and I can't remember how far I got 😴😴😴😂
I love this. The vocabulary used makes it such a peaceful story. I definetly needed it.
Had a rough week so far and tuned into this last night. I was asleep in about 10 mins. Thank you!
I am so calmed and brought to a place of serenity and peace. The narrative voice is like a smooth whipalight sandwich! A fabulously textured and pleasing treat that gives you a satiated feeling of a days completion. I could listen to him everyday!
Whipalight sandwich?
I just found this tonight.. and have subscribed.. Thank you.. May everyone seeking peace and a calming presence sleep well 😴 ❤
I havent been able to sleep for a few days, its 12.40am and im giving this a try ❤
Big fan from Egypt here ❤ I sleep like a baby on those 😅
Well ironically i really enjoy this during tea time and doing chores.. so calming…
Oooohhhh!!!! 🙏this is so perfect!! Thank you so much ❤
I just stumbled across this channel and can already tell I'm gonna love this. Goodnight fellow night walkers. 😴
Thank. You.
Thank you!😊
Thank you for helping me sleep.
Thanks for these sleep stories. I fall asleep within minutes while listening to your stories. I have insomnia, so you’re magic for me. Thank you for giving me back my sleep and sanity ❤
The univers has my back
Thanks Thomas 😊
Listening to this got me suddenly wide awake as they mentioned he drank coffee in the morning. Immersion completely broken and all I can think of is how coffee wasn’t introduced to the west yet
Love and lonliness. The night sky is cold and far away, isn't it?
Thanks!
Absolutely beautiful story telling. Your voice is exquisite. Thankyou.
Thomas, this is an absolute banger.
🥺🥹really thank you 🙏
Live now. Beauty is everywhere. Narrator has a nice calm voice. Zen budhism.
Thankyou ✨
And that kids, is why you have an inconsistent sleep schedule. You get the best of both worlds
Ive got my executive chef boss listening to Thomas! He was complaining about sleep...and so i got him sleep headphones and now hes addicted too.....very impressive!! Thank-you...sincerely
I cannot tell you how very, very happy I am to have found your channel. Thank you so much, it is simply marvellous.
I’ve tried to listen to this story 3 times. I want to finish it so bad. But it’s doing the job too well lol
GOOD MORNING! 💗
Excited to be asleep 🙃💚😴was trying to find something long enough and quiet enough to get to sleep but interesting enough to shut my brain up as we listen until sleep. When I saw this I knew it was just perfect. Insomnia < me.
It's 5 am I just want to sleep. Fingers crossed this helps Update: I slept 😢 and like everyone said I don't remember a thing 😅
Trust
T's a truly beautiful story... Thank you 🤗
Thank you for these stories as they help me to sleep. Maybe one day I’ll get to hear the entire story before falling to sleep.
I have successfully never made it through more than 10 minutes of the story
Thanks I left it in my mind for what I remember and then will do!! Thanks 🙏 😅❤
I listened to tne whole story and then fell asleep. Beautiful message to "Be here now!"
So happy you enjoyed it!

Hi
Me listening to this bed time story while living on a small Greek island 😭😭😭😭 I love it 🥹✨
Lovely story and voice :) I chose this one since it didn't center around food.. but there is a lot in this and I found myself too hungry to sleep 😂 if there's any stories less food focused, please recommend ^^
Wow!! Just found this. The voice is everything in storytelling. Yes Perfect !! Absolutely Perfection 🥰🥰 Thank you so much for the peaceful calmness to ease my mind❤
How did you know I wouldn’t make it past 33 mins😮🔥🔥🔥 back again
It’s my time folks I’m stoked. Hope you all sleep well. Thanks Thomas!!

Funny thing. Every time I listen to one of your podcasts, I never get to hear the end of the story, 😂. Great stuff, thank you!
Then it's working perfectly
This is one of my favourite stories, from my favourite narrator. Thank you Thomas ❤

It's very interesting, I find it hard to fall asleep too.. I find my self following this intriguing story reminding me about the importance of being alive and not taking the small things forgranded
I am magnet
Good. I like it. I work nights. This helps.
🩷🩷🤗🩷🩷 New listener here! I hope i sleep like a passed out drunk tonight! Not sure why people say "sleep like a baby". Baby's rarely sleep well at all! 😉😉
😂 So .. did you?
Best sleep you can get is after an a** whooping. Well at least for me 😂(when I misbehaved as a child)
@@delenaq Today... that's called assault.
Thank you so much for making this sleep story , it helped with my anxiety and helped me relax ❤
Now ask yourself if you can remember what that story was about.
Of course I do remember the story & every passage + it’s Beauty & amazing interpretation of it all😊❤
Nope
😅
What story? 🤪
Silvester Stallon movie?
I don't know if You'll read this but Thank You ❤ I'm a first time Listener and Subscriber Now!
Thank you* for your special* voice* ✨☄️
I’ve been in bed for 4 hrs trying to sleep. I hope this works
I hope sleep will come soon 💙
Totally helped, I’ve listened 2 nights in a row 😌
Listened to it till the end and it’s a great story, guys, next time don’t give up to sleep so easily 😁
Life is greater
Lovely Story, of course I only listened for the first 5 minutes before drifting 😆, but I did listen to it the day after while eating breakfast
I have to be the only one who didn't fall asleep. Listening to the story was very comforting though ❤.
I'm still awake too and the story ended after about 35min and the rest is relaxing music.
Yes I fell asleep and woke up to music. Now I am awake again
I love stories thank you for the video
Love the rain ❤
Universal
Thank you for another lovely story for us to treasure. Wishing you all a peaceful night of refreshing sleep
I really enjoyed watching this storytelling video. The narrator conveyed a lot of emotion ☺
i kept dreaming about stars and galaxies last night no wonder lol! woke up to having this in my ears!
Happy i found this. I was sick of scary stories. Thanks
This is the best , i sleep with in the first 10 min . So calming ❤
Lovely stuff. Thanks.
Story for the night! Thank you ❤ I never remember much or at all but I appreciate you 😂😅❤
Love this! The only thing that could make it better is if it were black screen so my eyes wouldn't stay stimulated with the light from my screen, even with my eyes closed.
KZhead Premium lets you turn your screen off; it preserves battery power that way, too
@farah3027 if I could afford premium, I would get it in a heartbeat. My toddler would thank me for no ads during his ms rachel lol
Just put the screen down flat on the bed or pillow, or get a cover for the screen.
I love when I don't listen to the end ❤
Best sleep ever! Thank you...
Seriously, what sorcery is this? Thank you!
