🐈 The Kitten's Dream 😴 LONG BEDTIME STORY FOR GROWN UPS 💤 Adult Bedtime Story

[@hannahhaircut]

You are my favourite, Dan! I recommend you frequently to my friends & family if they are needing help to sleep. You are a legend. Many thanks 🌙 sweet dreams to you all !

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

Thank you...

[@blebleu3996]

Omg! Seriously, could I love this man any more than I already do?? I feel like he is looking directly into my eyes as he is speaking... I LOVE your hypnotic stories. I will never be able to sleep without them...

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

Thank you... I decided to record this one live to camera. Normally I just record the audio and create a video with an image and waveform...

[@HokeTheDog]

I'm looking forward to this story. It's only 8:01 pm in my time zone. I love the cat stories.

[@bluesummer333]

lovely dan ...........i send you good wishes and THANK YOUS from the south pacific. your luvly face'.... your soft voice'..... to drift off to sleep to'. we should be so lucky. BLESS YOU for all your working for us all. Cari.

[@wendysimkin1734]

Thought I'd better catch up with my comments on your stories. I've listened to this one a couple of times. Really love it. Thank you. 🥰

[@annekennedy883]

Dan, I have been listening to you for years but I don't think I've commented on your videos at all, primarily because they effectively put me out like a light! This one works so fast that I have no idea what actually happens in the story! Love it! Thank you so much. You're a lifesaver. ❤

[@bevanliam2731]

Amazing sorties! I pass out within about 15mins, thanks mate!

[@juanvaldes1837]

Unique amazing stories, I love them

[@daphnehopwood7935]

We love your videos, well done. I can’t sleep without listening.

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

Thank you...

[@stina-h]

Oh this is perfect, I'm about to go to sleep and have a cat on my lap in bed. Looking forward to it!

[@tatianaivan8363]

Hey Dan! I love all your videos, they are by far the best I've come across. Could you possibly make a video specifically for falling asleep on your back? I know there's plenty of people besides myself that would appreciate that since it's ideal for your back health and helps reduce wrinkles! Just food for thought, thanks again!

[@susorasu]

Congratulations on 20k! You deserve it. I love the eye contact in this one 🙏🏼 40 looks great on you :)

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

Thank you... I decided to record this straight to a camera so that people can see what I am doing to make these stories...

[@kapsvelvethammer4314]

I love this idea! 💜

[@Shar1022]

Didn’t realize u were talking ON video! Cool. Tried many others but ur voice is the most soothing & relaxing of them all! Thanx for such a wide variety of stories! Now, to sleep, perchance to dream...🥱

[@kapsvelvethammer4314]

Yipee! So excited I got so spoiled during that 40 dayd 💜

[@lisawhite-pagano3455]

I think I always imagined you recording the stories while you’re sitting in a sound booth or at a desk. This is very cool. I think you should do a voice over role for Pixar or Disney. We would all be shouting, that’s Dan!! in movie theaters!😊❤️

[@devittca]

Love your videos!

[@EruzaSky]

I put this on for my mum to nap to because she's barely slept the last few nights (well she never sleeps properly). Deliberately called it a sleep meditation seeing as when I mentioned she could try listening to adult bedtime stories ages ago she laughed at me...! She said that she found herself visualising the story even though she wasn't trying to, nearly burst out laughing at some of the funny parts, and had no idea she'd fallen asleep until a couple hours later she'd realised you'd stopped talking! She really enjoyed it. I decided not to mention beforehand that the guy she was listening to was the same one she'd walked in on talking about an owl-spider hybrid the previous night 🤣🤣🤣 I'm gonna finish setting up her new smartphone then I'll subscribe her to you because she wants to listen to more

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

Yes, I prefer sleep meditations as a term because people end up freaked out by me talking meditatively and want me to 'read normally' so I feel it helps people know that what they are getting... Maybe spider-owl will crop up one day...

[@NylaVox]

Dan, this looks amazing, I'm making tea now. I can't wait to listen. Thank-you so much. ✨🌟🤗🐱🌟✨

[@lauriemarvel]

Im enjoying this, good night everyone. Zzzzz

[@honey-hw6vj]

I love love love this story!! But I hate it when I fall asleep at the same part and never get to hear anymore :'(

[@annfoster465]

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[@cantseemtobe]

Thank you!

[@chrystinegaines3207]

Been having insomnia, got 8h. Thanks!

[@chrystinegaines3207]

Seriously I sent a link to a friend and said 'Do NOT listen while driving ' lol

[@kapsvelvethammer4314]

Even more relaxing watching you too I better go to bed before I fall asleep sitting up 😉💜

[@bethbachet2214]

So perfectly relaxing...thanks Dan!

[@Happy23me]

I need to give thumbs up before I hear the story, because I fall in sleep in like 10min 😄 I don't realy know what are the stories about. Love you!

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

Thank you, that is why I have to say about liking and subscribing etc at the beginning, because if I said it at the end like you normally would in KZbin videos I would wake people up who have hopefully fallen asleep. All the best Dan

[@CraftwithAnnie2018]

gratz on 20k hun you desrve it

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

Thank you...

[@clairebennett7831]

Love your bookshelf. It looks sort of like mine did before books got moved to different parts of the house. I see your reading is varied. You have a lot of varied material to draw upon with your stories.

[@katerinademetriou9011]

Great story 👌

[@sandyvazquez9210]

Thank you

[@manga4774]

[@nickythapa5054]

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

Thank you...

[@riawelk9485]

You make my nights thx 😉

[@user-kk3se4bn1r]

i love you and your voice!! idk what the hell it is but i fall asleep so quickly

[@bballnoah1446]

Was so relaxed and just about asleep, then a commercial came on and woke me up. Maybe just an ad at the beginning and not the end.

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

This is an old video so it doesn't have any ads at the end of in the middle. The most likely explanation if there was an ad is that you had autoplay on our listened within a playlist and so ended up getting the ad at the beginning of the next video. All videos uploaded to KZbin since November last year so have ads at the end unfortunately. KZbin has made this compulsory, is creators have no control over this. We all tried to get KZbin not to make this change, stating that ads at the end of our videos aren't helpful when people use our videos to sleep. We all made videos about the issue and that it was happening in November to try to also get our audiences to help us challenge KZbin. Jason Stephenson who is one of the largest creators in this space set up a petition and this was put to KZbin, but KZbin still puts ads at the end, which is why we all pretty much make videos now where there is the story followed by his of rain sound or music etc so that the viewer can set a timer to turn off KZbin after the story but before the rain sounds etc ends.

[@wurlybird6752]

As ever Dan, a lovely story that I hope to reach the end of one day, but as I always start at the beginning...........Sadly I have the type of insomnia that causes me to wake every hour, and I always just restart the story! Anyway, thank you and I have your book by the way, very nice. I have recorded myself reading one of your stories and it's AWFUL 😭. I do not have your skills! Xxx

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

I'm sure it's not awful. It is normal not to like your own voice initially, the good thing about recording it yourself is that it is far more effective because you can do it exactly as you like, you can do pauses how you like, you are already in rapport with yourself so you don't have that issues of building rapport that I have for example, and you can get all the tones etc just how you like them, and also doing it yourself you can add any background music or sounds to taste which you wouldn't get on a track of mine, you can also change wording to just what you like...

[@wurlybird6752]

Maybe though I am actually used to my own voice having made recordings of study notes for revision. Nope it's just the pauses and things I got them all wrong. Sigh. However if at first and all that try try again! Thank you for taking the time to reply, very kind. X

[@funtimefredboi1204]

Dan its me again if you remember me sorry for that comment imma go to sleep now and if this is like any of your other sleep videos i'll be out like a light god bless

[@dianeray4777]

I love love love your stories I've never had anything put me into such a deep sleep, i love it keep them coming your amazing

[@sawwhetchick7203]

Welp, couldnt stay awake long enough to listen to the dogs story....so let's try cats.

[@apoorvaajay768]

U are always amazing💓💓💓

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

Thank you...

[@MegaStartrek1]

And keep themselves warm and dry and safe from the Elephants 🐘..... ooppps.... 🤭🤫😉... I mean.... Elements...... 😂🤣😂🤣.... what a DICK.

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

Being autistic the wrong words always come to mine and it takes a lot of effort and focus to talk without saying the wrong words that feel natural to say so I am always having to correct myself and any time I say elements the word that comes to mind and out of my mouth is elephants...

[@annamason3081]

Ooh hope I like this!

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

I obviously hope so too...

[@annamason3081]

Dan Jones Hypnosis best nights sleep in ages

[@annshaffer3314]

LOUD ad came on twice and woke me up !! I hope this doesn’t continue. I depend on these awesome stories. Thanks

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

There is nothing more I can do KZbin says it doesn't happen because they can't replicate it and I can't replicate it despite people giving me screen shots showing ads will play during the video. It shows when you put the video on whether there will be ads (yellow dashes on the play bar). I would recommend either using the mp3's on my stories app or refreshing the video and not playing the video if you see yellow dashes because it means there will be an ad. I don't set any ads in the story videos, so they shouldn't be there and can't seem to get anything done to stop ads I've not put in my videos from showing. About 94 of my stories are on my Dan Jones Hypnosis Sleep Stories podcast with no ads or introductions. As mentioned, you can tell before you start playing a video whether ads will show because they show on the video play back bar as yellow dashes, so if you see these don't play the video, refresh and see if the dashes go away or use a different story. I've raised this a lot with youtube over that last year including with very good evidence it is really happening, so have many subscribers but the case may gets closed eventually with youtube saying they can't find a problem. All the best Dan

[@instinctivelychelsea2905]

Gosh I don't know What it but the second you start telling the story I'm OUT! Best bed time stories every. A favorite of my is the forgotten Abby:)

[@PrincessDollieBunnie]

Haha if I were you I'd fall asleep telling these stories

[@emilystaves3255]

I love these! I would prefer it, though, if you just picked a gender for the characters. He, she, or even it would be better than they.

[@DanJonesHypnosis]

That varies depending on the story and the reason within that story. In most of my stories characters are male or female or they where necessary. I can't imagine saying it as that sounds insulting, probably because I am autistic and I have been called it due to this and called people out on this and they have said autistic people aren't really fit to be classed as the same level as people so that was why they referred to me and other autistic people as it. In some stories I have the listener observing a story with a specific character playing out where I define the character, from a therapeutic perspective some people can't then relate to this if they are the opposite sex and so don't engage therapeutically. When I use they I am leaving it up to the listener to create the story in their mind and make the character who they feel it should be. I commonly have my animal stories use they because it usually isn't relevant to the story whether it was a male or female cat for example, and people often think things like 'that cat is like my childhood cat' and that cat will have a sex and so they project the sex onto the cat in the story and so feel closer to the story and it is more personalised. In other stories because they are therapeutic (most are addressing worry, anxiety and stress as well as sleep) I use a mix of first and third person depending on what is therapeutically relevant in that moment, and when I do this it is more likely I will have been using you and they during the story, so you when in first person and they when watching that you in third person, because I won't know for each listener what sex they identify with. This is all easier to do face to face with clients where what I use is relevant to the client and it is during therapy so they don't find it odd things like me talking about a character climbing a mountain and then saying 'as you look out from the top'. Whereas I think people sometimes forget that these are therapeutic stories online and perhaps think all the techniques I use are odd or must be mistakes (which I do make sometimes but usually will have edited them out before they are on KZbin). All the best Dan

[@afowler424]
