3 HRS Storytelling for Sleep: The Cozy Lake Chalet | Calming Bedtime Stories for Adults

[@MichellesSanctuary]

As a child in a small town, I’d ride in my grandfather’s red truck as he waved at every passerby and smiled. I just assumed he was friends with everyone. Most people he knew, but even those he didn’t were met with a warm greeting. At night, he ran a garage by the river, tinkering with cars and socializing with kindred souls who popped by. The garage was a sanctuary for stray cats and I’d often come feed them, in between moments spent skipping stones across the river and hopping over puddles formed in the many potholes on Reed St. His spirit, and a longing for the kindness and community I felt in my formative years, led me to create “The Lake Chalet” series. Now you can enjoy all six stories in a collection to help you dream away. 💤Subscribe for more videos at my other channel, Michelle's Meditation Sanctuary! www.youtube.com/@MichellesMeditationSanctuary ✨Gifts are always accepted, for those of you who wish you show appreciation: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/34QKQX4NZM7QL?ref_=wl_share www.buymeacoffee.com/michsanctuary www.paypal.me/michellessanctuary www.venmo.com/michellehotaling

@@triciaostrander916 What a beautiful memory-- I'm glad it reminded you of that. My town has changed remarkably and I stayed at a boutique hotel now near the place where the garage once was. The divey pub is now a nice pizza place. Funny how things may change, but I believe the memories always linger.

The Cozy Lake Chalet stories with Ike and Martha are my absolute favorite!! I listen to them over and over as they have given me such peace during this time of illness. Thank you so much. I hope there will be more of these.

With the day behind us and the night upon us, it's time to recharge both body and soul. May you find solace in the silence of the night and wake up tomorrow with a heart full of hope and determination. Goodnight, everyone. Sleep deeply and let the magic of the night restore you, so you can face the day ahead with a smile. 😊😊😊

[@MichellesSanctuary]

This means so much! Happy to be a mood therapist! 💜

[@courtneysolano7995]

I'm ordering the headphones you recommended. Thank you so much for your stories.

[@MichellesSanctuary]

I hope they help! I have been using the Hoomband Ultimate every night the past month to block out light and sound as I adjust to being awakened by a puppy!

[@christierichardson2841]

Thanks for the compilation ❤❤❤

It's my pleasure ✨

[@douglove2412]

Beautiful memories with your grandfather! I have become a grandfather who waves at everyone, too, as I drive up and down my canyon road. Like your grandfather, I don’t know everyone, but I feel like giving a neighborly wave. I lay off it when I get to big town traffic, where people might take it wrong, and turn me in or shoot me. Thanks for your beautiful stories. I dream away every single time!

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Congratulations to you-- I love that. About twenty years ago I made a friend in my neighborhood who knew everyone at every shop she frequented. It was the first I realized that a city neighborhood (or block) can one day take on the same small town interactions I experienced upstate. It's just a far more eclectic and perhaps raw exchange of greetings than I once knew!

[@douglove2412]

Nice. Everywhere we go it’s a small world.

[@dale9724]

Love these long ones. Thanks, Michelle.

[@MichellesSanctuary]

You are so welcome! Hope it brings sleep and good dreams.

[@alanmalczewski8631]

This feels like my hometown in Ohio, wish this could happen again. You did it 😜, great job 👍😁!!!

Betty and Durward were like them. I dunno how uncle Dur goes onward? #Tennessee

[@melissahollister3409]

I am not liking this - why so much about food? I want to go to sleep and explore new areas

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Maybe skip this one then- you know what you like. Some people enjoy the comfort of that. Check out a travel sleep story instead.

[@drewcunningham7359]

With these “premieres”, I’m still of the mindset that I get excited to think that there is something new released, just to find out that it isn’t actually ready yet. Sorry Michelle, I feel like I’m the party pooper here. It’s like I got excited to hear it now, I can’t wait another 16 hours before I go to bed. Sorry I’m giving you such a hard time.

[@MichellesSanctuary]

I've been doing premieres for many years now-- one of the main reasons is if I don't, I will get dozens of emails and comments with concern that there won't be a Sunday release that week since I've always released on Sunday and they want to know what's coming. So yeah, for this channel, it will always be a release the same day of week to combat the Sunday Scaries.

[@triciaostrander916]

Its 3am can't sleep😢 so here iam visiting my trusted friend and guide 😊 love and light Michelle from across the miles ❤✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️🎵✨️🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙💛🩷💜💙💚💛
