    I'm so grateful the ads are at the beginning, and don't disrupt the story. I let them play.
  • New subscriber here! I drifted off to the Tiny Family episode a few nights ago and feel so grateful to have found this channel. Iā€™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 šŸ’™
  • @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!!!

  • 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.
  • 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

    Ditto šŸ˜Ž 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. ā¤ā¤ā¤
