Gosh, this has proved to be the most effective story yet to help me relax! Funny how a particular, magical combination does that, and is probably different for everyone, but this has assisted me to relax even while experiencing PTSD and will be my go-to. I have your Villa by the Sea as my go-to for migraines and this is now my go-to for relieving locked in tension. Going back to sleep now...❤

Thank you, thank you, thank you! And by the way, I must tell you that your rain in Ireland video is so beyond exquisite. Michelle, it's truly a work of art. I can't tell you how much every single descriptive word, every soporific tone in your voice and how the background ambient music lift me away into such an blissful state.

I’ve listened to this specific meditation more times than any of the several in my playlist of only you & 2 other people’s sleep meditations. Your voice is one that I trust & the descriptive imagery pairs perfectly the way that you speak. Like right now- I often wake up when I have only 4hrs to sleep (usually after only sleeping two). ❤ ✌️

I tried these but they don’t work so well for me. The Fall back to sleep ones work well but I wake when you stop talking. Just wondered if you’d consider making a longer one- it’s your voice that helps me sleep these days. Thank you.

It helps to kind of trick yourself by instead of thinking, oh, I am not falling asleep, to think, oh goodie, for once I'm getting to enjoy the whole story. Either you stop trying so hard to fall asleep and then do fall asleep, or if it really doesn't happen, you enjoy the time more and that is also restorative, at least more restorative than starting to stew or fret. It does take one conscious choice after another, just as we take conscious breaths and choose to fake yawns, we can choose that, even if pretending. It's also a conscious choice to trust that whichever way it goes, it's going to be ok and even when something is troubling us, there's still beauty to experience. It will be ok.
