I am 10 months sober aftr 40 yrs of looking for love in all the wrong places. Now I know it’s in me!!! 🦋🙏 I am the butterfly not a caterpillar anymore seeking my Creator and flying🧚‍♂️🦋🙏

[@vaneruizm]

I have NO idea what this story is about because every time I listen to it, I fall asleep 2 minutes in. Thank you!

[@getsleepypod]

Glad it works for you that fast!

[@carrie1475]

Same. I almost exclusively listen to this particular story now. Still have no idea what it's about. Works miracles for me.

[@leeleevalentine3898]

Same here ❤

[@rainsound888]

May be but nice animation

[@mikeinocencio9516]

Hai.. me too !😊

[@fandoe]

I've started listening to these because I've felt painfully, horribly lonely recently and I can't take the silence when trying to fall asleep. It really helps. Thank you for your work

[@majestic7107]

Sending you love ❤️. Hope you’re doing ok?

[@roloflanagan]

Hope you're feeling good

[@Grayvorn]

Even strangers can be here for you thanks to the comments section. Glad the story helps you like it does me!!!!

[@dalladalla-mt4ep]

Hey I hope you're feeling better now. Sending you virtual hugs

[@erinhedley7147]

Hope you’re ok - Thomas is a great connector through his stories.

[@Light-Sat]

Such a loving and compassionate channel. I love the fact there are so many of us enjoying our pure, inner child who loves bedtime stories. Blessings for all ! Thank you Thomas for creating this.

[@elizabethkukolja8554]

So true ❤

[@SleepyStories-0]

I feel the exact same! I’ve started making my own after getting inspired by channels like this!

[@k8eekatt]

I'm so grateful the ads are at the beginning, and don't disrupt the story. I let them play.

[@wrinklesandsprinkles]

Me too! Letting the ads play monetizes the channel and I get some sleep!!

[@osbsidbddhsidbdid2742]

I didnt actually need to sleep, just needed somthing to listen too. And I must say, I really did actually enjoy the story lots. Its facinating to know even our ancestors had a thing for miraculous fantasies.

[@WhiteNoiseforSleeping-cs8my]

Sending people here after a hard day full of challenges: well done, you did well today and tomorrow will be better. Just relax, get rid of all distracting noises and enjoy the relaxing sounds of nature. I wish you the best

[@janisbraun9652]

I agree! I love the relaxation techniques before the stories. I have been so depressed lately and your stories are the only way I can escape and go to sleep. Thank you, Thomas!! God bless you and your stories!!!

[@Goodnews99457]

I'm suffering from deep depression for a while myself. Thomas's stories brings some comfort

[@mariemakmal2308]

going through a break up right now, this helped me sleep so easily for two days now, 10 minutes in and i’m completely asleep, thank you

[@getsleepypod]

Very glad our stories help you go through your difficult period. We're here for you 💙

[@lucindaamaro9570]

Ditto 😎 I fall a sleep within minutes lol. So grateful I clicked the on button to listen. I've never had bedtime stories read to me as a child. Now as a grandmother it's something I look forward too when my granddaughters are here. Thanks Thomas for sharing. ❤❤❤

[@gwihan1008]

I am extremely grateful , with anxiety attacks and sleep paralysis I've been struggling to sleep everyday . This felt like someone was there with me while i sleep which definitely helps immensely , thank you very much , i owe you a lot 💕💕🙏

[@Donotevengotherewithme]

I have sleep paralysis and night terrors. This helps tremendously!

[@laceysaije8371]

Call on the name of Jesus and it will stop. The night terrors are demons. Try it, it worked for me and my husband.

[@Amalaiel.]

Searching for a Get Sleepy story before bed has quickly become a nightly routine. Thank you to everyone at Get Sleepy for all your work 💕

[@mynamedoesntmatter8652]

I love to sleep because I love to dream. Dreams are stories we can enjoy in our sleep, and some can become recurring dreams, my favorite dreams. Keep a notebook and pencil by your bedside; use it to write down your dreams, beginning your writing as you start to wake. Keep your eyes as closed as possible, thinking only of the dream you just came out of so you can better recall them and not miss the little details. You’ll become familiar with where the lines are as you write more from your dreams. You can rewrite all these into a proper journal later to make them neat. The notebook is for the important raw visuals and everything said. I love to sleep because I love to dream ~~~~~

[@dogmom6380]

I've fallen in love with your voice. You make me feel good about myself. I feel connected to You and All who are in these comments. It's awesome to not feel alone. ❤. Much love, abundance and prosperity.

[@valerieoliversmith618]

I ABSOLUTELY Love this story, Tomas.. I listen over and over.. Thank you!!

[@Csaganash72286]

Me too ❤ my grandson is 9 years old listens to it too but he falls asleep each time 😅❤😊

[@Light-Sat]

I loooove this beautiful and gentle story!

[@patrickviner7365]

Dealing with a terminally ill brother and a recently widowed sister plus every day life stresses has made going to sleep elusive many nights. Desperation lead me here and for that I am grateful. Relaxing sleep has made me more able to cope and less likely to feel overwhelmed. I keep coming back to the same story and as long as I get to sleep I'll accept not knowing the ending.

[@catcolb11]

Wishing you peaceful sleep. 🧸

[@venessalizabeth]

New subscriber here! I drifted off to the Tiny Family episode a few nights ago and feel so grateful to have found this channel. I’ve struggled with depression/anxiety/insomnia for most of my life and am a new mom to a six week old, so sleep is fleeting these days. Thank you for helping me relax 💙

[@getsleepypod]

Thank you! We're glad to help you in these challenging but beautiful time for you! Sweet dreams to you and your baby! 💙

I’ve been listening to these at bedtime for the past couple nights and sleeping like a baby ❤

[@iagreewithyou749]

As soon as he started, I almost fell asleep. I just love his calm, soothing voice.❤

[@queenelizabee7246]

my subconscious enjoys your channel, i deeply enjoy this bc i have adhd/anxiety and even if i’m on a good sleep schedule or hyper focused into the am I’m able to rest once i realize all i needed was a story to trick myself into sleeping.

[@getsleepypod]

Glad it helps you!

[@MandyEdgington]

Me too , and lonely 😢

[@kimberlypriestley1467]

Peaceful, beautiful story.

[@ValhallaASMR]

I love the rain in the background! Wow, i could listen to these stories all day.

[@getsleepypod]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@elenachernykh303]

Beautiful to tears! Thank you!❤

[@Nicolenikkixshezadhi]

God bless you Thomas. Your voice is so calming and relaxing ❤️🥱🥱😴😴😴

[@aphroditebbygo]

I have Insomnia for the past couple years. I began to play this story recently, it helps me to fall asleep faster and easily. Thanks for the good work. Im glad other people found this helpful too!

[@grayedheart]

I keep coming back for this story. It's my favorite one. ❤❤

[@klakkinkittykat]

It is a beautiful story 😊

[@SusasLight]

Lol right to sleepy land 💤 Thank you Thomas 😊 I will have to listen again to get past the beginning!! Haha

[@lovesings2us]

What a marvelous story, so beautifully read! Thank you.

[@elbiimarie]

I never listen to stories because I always find the voices so unsettling 😅 buuuttt I’m so glad you popped up, your voice is perfect for this 😄 goodnight all 🩷

[@juliadia007]

I woke up this morning and saw this story on my phone and realized I didn’t hear one minute of it. The last I remember is the 3 deep breaths and then I was out! Thank you.

[@getsleepypod]

So glad it worked for you!

[@tarpleyk9352]

Oh, that butterfly..... I just love em 💜

[@betaylor5031]

Tried everything to sleep. Listened and was out! Had sweet dreams, too!

[@jumperontheline]

A wonderful story and beautifully told. I listened during the day, not while wanting to sleep, so heard it from beginning to end. Love the intro about the butterfly which sets the scene, as well as the delicious sound of falling rain (even though not necessary at the moment as it's raining here a few feet from where I'm sitting!) For everyone who has fallen asleep listening, I highly recommend having another listen when you're not wanting to sleep: this story has such a great ending. Traditional Japanese culture and spirituality 😍 so beautiful. Thank you so much to Thomas and all involved in enabling me to hear it ❤️🙏

[@helpisontheway12]

This is an amazing story. I had to listen during the day because I always fell asleep. Thanks for helping me sleep each night. I really appreciate it.

[@majestic7107]

Same.. 😊 it’s only 11:30am right now. I wanted to get into a deep relaxation, this is the best channel for relaxing. Wanted to hear the whole story. 😊

[@Kknightstar]

Thank you for your positive positive vibes

[@Lynnette4]

I have listened to this story often. It is magical!!! Thank you Thomas and all involved with these beautiful peaceful productions. You help me rest and sleep well every night.

[@CarolBadger-jk2kg]

Such a beautiful and calming story read wonderfully Thomas. Many thanks to you and your team.

[@surpurr12]

Thank you Thomas . You make it so much easier to sleep.

[@cutekittenslimesuprise]

this is my new favorite story it's so unique and beautiful- if there's more japanese folk tales i would love to hear thomas narrate those

[@rainnordrum-im4ms]

Thank you for sharing enjoyed the story can't wait to hear more storytelling

[@lisacarroll5512]

This is beautiful! Thank You ❤

[@lucyd5592]

Finally was able to listen to the whole story without falling asleep - beautiful and completely relaxed❤

Absolutely beautiful everything introduction, voice, music sounds and all THANK YOU thank you thank you ❤💫🌠

[@madisonbryant9712]

I listen to this because my boyfriend (who I live with during the academic year) is back home across the country from me for the summer. I didn’t realize how hard it was to fall asleep alone after spending so much time together. We go to sleep on call but I still can’t help but toss and turn. I love these stories they slow my brain down so much

❤ Going in for a listen for the 3rd time! 😂😂😂, thank you for helping me sleep 🛌…. But I’m determined to get to the end of the the story before I listen to the next one, exciting…😆! Thank you 🙏 ❤

[@indigoblue4791]

Thank you Thomas, beautifully done! 😴

[@AbacusAxolotyl]

Thank you so much for this channel! I’ve been suffering from insomnia recently and for years ASMR has done the trick but recently it hasn’t been working so I’ve been averaging about 2 hours a night. 5 minutes of this and I realised I was starting to feel tired and I was out in about 10! Best sleep stories I’ve heard!

[@annettependergraft120]

I made it 25 minutes! So relaxing! The rain.....love it!❤

[@vartikasrivastava7969]

Wow! So soothing and nice story I am big fan of Thomas's voice, every day I listen the story 2-3times in a day😊

[@getsleepypod]

So glad you enjoy it!

[@BEATINGYOU]

The same story you listen to two to three times a day

[@vartikasrivastava7969]

@@BEATINGYOU yes,

[@gregroberts2049]

Love the stories but some of the ambient sounds wake me up. The rain wakes me every time.

[@deemareraki6195]

I struggle with insomnia but your stories are magic it trips me out how well they work thank you now time to go back to sleep lol

[@Artbypais]

I love this podcast, it helps me sleep every night. Thank you for making this ❤.

[@JacqueBowlingMedium]

I've listened to this multiple times a week since it's come out.

[@sarahreese7109]

Tom, you have a really nice tone of voice, keep it up! I was taking a few sneak peeks of your videos, and I think they are as successful as they come! As a woman with autism spectrum disorder, I am on the lookout for awesome meditation podcasts along with music that soothes the body and mind.

[@getsleepypod]

Thank you for your support Sarah! We're so glad our stories help you 💙

[@tsreiki]

First time listener ❤ I truly hope there are no ads in this 😊

[@getsleepypod]

No ads during the video or at the end of it! Only ad is before the video starts. You won't be awaken in the middle of the story 😊

[@tsreiki]

@@getsleepypod thank you, I loved the story am now listening to the rain and gentle music segment.. I really love everything about this 💕

[@caratkingme2183]

This is an amazing story although I just closed my eyes but didn’t drift off . It reminds me of my unfinished tale of a Japanese king returning to his kingdom on a lake . I love how the story is like a false awakening dream and the rain platters at the end sound like a sea of standing ovation . Your voice is soothing too . Good job and nice story ❤

[@dalladalla-mt4ep]

Hello, if you're having a hard time with yourself or your life, i hope you remember all the amazing things in your life. It can be the smallest ones but i hope you realise the power of gratitude. Sending you a biiiiiiig virtual hug and remember so many of us are rooting for you. I appreciate your existence so much✨

[@amitianurati7407]

I can't figure out why, but some put me to sleep much faster than others... This one is like the Magical Mobile Bookstore.... I have to keep listening over n over cuz I keep falling asleep too fast to hear the story! Thank you Get Sleepy staff!

[@carmelitaangel8797]

Thank you I appreciate your positivity and prayer

I'd love more stories like this!!!! If you have time ofc!

[@Ahrysa]

Omg i have so much trouble falling back asleep when i wake in the middle of the night. This worked, I fell asleep at some point after the butterfly showed up! Thank you! Im usually just staring at the ceiling til sunrise 😭

[@onesmolgobbo]

This story has had me asleep so quickly and feels so cozy. I didn't even realize there was sleep music until I looked just now at the time stamps

[@getsleepypod]

So glad you enjoyed it! Most of our listeners like the extended background sleep music.

Sleep peaceful sleep how wonderful to sleep to the meditation. Thank you

[@Cathy_cma]

This was amazing, thank you. I fell asleep in no time. This video calmed me right down. I didn't get very far in the story. You dont even need to tell a story, you could have spoken gibberish, and I still would've fallen asleep.

[@raynecamara]

Please make narrate more Japanese folktales, this is my favorite story to fall asleep🫶

[@Rozzylous]

Exactly what I need right now, thanks algorithm 😊😅

[@faithlove106]

I went right to sleep to your voice and accent the first night. And was so charmed that the next day I listened to the whole story. Now it’s my favorite and a nightly affair. Thank you!

[@KaiCornejo-no8zv]

I’ve probably listened to this specific video twenty times since I first watched it a month or so ago; it’s just perfect! The story itself is fascinating, it’s retold in such a satisfying way, your narration is soothing, and the sound of rain is perfectly balanced between inconspicuous and still very much present- even though it’s a relatively short story, I almost always find myself drifting off before it’s even over ^_^ thanks for doing what you do!

[@gabbyrose8260]

Thank you so much for these videos, you help me and so many other people so much 💖🥰

[@nn-eq2rt]

I fall a sleep with the man in the beginning of the story when he did sleep, I have no Idea what the story was about because this is the last thing I remember, and every time I open my eyes it still raining and I fall a sleep again, thank you so much ♥️♥️

[@mayraramirez7936]

I don't manage to hear all episodes because when the story begins, I am falling soundly asleep. Thank and by the way, I enjoy much better when Thomas speaks the story, something in his voice is soothing and calm even though like I said, I get to hear the beginning and then I am out.

[@mariameere5807]
