[@fluffy_mcflooferson4635]

I didn't even get to the relaxation part. I must have fallen asleep within about 30 seconds. It really is amazing.

[@littlevoice_11]

How lovely to have some stories inspired by ancient cultures and lesser known societies. Thank you. It reminds me a little of the creation myths.

[@ohyeahoh693]

I don’t even remember falling asleep but I’m thinking it was around 10 mins in. I’ve never fallen asleep more quickly without having to use sleep meds.

[@kathyb2562]

Ditto!😊😴💤

[@nordicpink]

I think I’ve never gotten through a full story. Then I wake up to rain and music. Then start the story over. Rinse and repeat. Who knows how a story ends?🤷🏽‍♀️

[@luna7207]

If it's Thomas narrating...I KNOW I'm passing out within minutes. His voice is so soothing.

Me Too...😴💤🌙

[@mgsilverhead9636]

This one works really well for me!!! When the story is about "something else" that is really helpful - (vs when the story is "about me having an experience" - which isn't enough distraction) - PLUS - the rain + very nonlinear music (i am a musician so i need the music to not engage my brain😂) ... wonderful. I have used 4x now in the wee hours and i still don't know why they don't visit anymore! ❤❤

[@kidstory4u]

Love this.. thanks for the inspiration ❤

[@eshaibraheem4218]

This was wonderful. Very many thanks. I'll be liistening to it again, inshaAllah.

[@laurasoftheart]

Before finding Get Sleepy trying to get to sleep became a nightmare. I dreaded it. Awake hours and hours not being able to do what seemingly billions of people could do. All that is over now thanks to Thomas and his wonderful, soothing voice. I actually look forward again to climbing into bed to get a restful nights sleep! I especially like the fairy tales but I actually like them all. This one is one of my favorites. I can’t thank you enough Thomas for the gift you’ve given me of sleep!!!! ❤❤❤

[@desireekagan1885]

Thank you, Thomas, for your lovely bedtime stories. As an insomniac, it's so nice to have your voice to listen to as I rest, even if sleep doesn't come. Thank you. ❤

[@leonareber7774]

I really love ❤Thomas's voice. When I am in that twilight state -- halfway between sleeping and waking, it seems like he is sitting beside my bed. He never fails to put me to sleep. The only trouble is I like the stories so much that I hate to go to sleep and miss the end! Please keep reading to us Thomas. You're the best!!!❤

[@emmaroberts4150]

This is my favorite, I love the rain sounds, I love the fact they continue after the story and for me Thomas has the best voice for sleeping, with it being so slow and calm. I’ve listened to it so much I could recite it myself.

[@rishabhdivakar5550]

My late husband and I traveled until he became too ill. We built the mist wonderful memories. It's wonderful to see you two doing the same thing.

[@Phoenix_cataclysm_in_2040]

Jurgen Ziewe talks in detail about actual Afterlife conditions that your husband enjoys now. Jurgen describes them at length in his videos, as since early 1970s he's been having countless out-of-body experiences, and talks about Otherside environment from his very own journeys there and back. He also wrote two excellent books on that matter describing those realms of Afterlife.

Hi Thomas

[@rishabhdivakar5550]

Just one suggestion though.. Include the sounds of other things also such as opening of the gate, walking, etc wherever applicable. It will make ur videos more immersive
