  • Redeem the memory of Medusa in tonight’s sleep story, inspired by Greek mythology.

    In tonight’s story, you are an immortal Olympian – a member of the Greek Pantheon. You visit a deserted island where the memories of an ancient past are forever bound in stone. Here, you intend to right the wrongs of your past, makes amends, and to redeem the story of a figure forever remembered as monstrous: Medusa.

    This story is a retelling of the classical myths surrounding Medusa and the Gorgons. I’ve taken a number of liberties with the sources to offer an adaptation that fits the tone of Sleep & Sorcery, but some of the themes of this tale may skew a bit mature for younger listeners. If you listen with kids, parental discretion is advised.

    Music: A Glimpse of Avalon by Flouw, Gentle Winds by Ethan Sloan, Via Epidemic Sound

  • Tap into the strength of the lion in tonight’s medieval fantasy bedtime story.

    In tonight’s story, you are the heir apparent to the throne of a powerful kingdom. However, on the day of your planned coronation, you learned of another claimant to the crown – you fled the capitol in search of answers. Now, you venture through unknown wilds, following every clue to the whereabouts of your supposed rival. When your journey winds through a small village, you encounter a legendary sword and a mysterious beast. But the creature the townsfolk fear is not, you find, an enemy – it is a lion, the symbol of your royal house. If you’re still awake as the story comes to an end, I’ll guide you through a meditation to invite courage.

    This story is connected to the Dragon Rider and Tavern Tales world in other episodes of Sleep & Sorcery. You don’t need to have heard those stories to understand or enjoy this one, but you may recognize some of the characters and threads woven throughout.

  • Connect with the energy of the crane in tonight’s bedtime story, inspired by Japanese folklore.

    In tonight’s story, you are a poor woodcutter who discovers a wounded crane on your way home from the market. You care for the bird, nursing it back to health until it can fly again. Shortly after the crane departs, a woman arrives at your doorstep seeking a place to stay. The woman repays your hospitality with mysterious and seemingly magical gifts, which bring you great wealth. As your fortunes change, you become more and more curious about your house guest – until you discover her connection to the crane you once cared for. This tale is lovingly adapted from the Japanese folktale “The Crane’s Return of a Favor.”

  • Meet the alchemist within in tonight’s fantasy bedtime story.

    In tonight’s story, you awaken upon a mountainside only to discover the unattended cavern workshop of an alchemist, who is in pursuit of the great secrets of the universe. You explore the curiosities of this mountain sanctum, coming face to face with the alchemist’s supernatural helpers: gnomes, sylphs, undines, and salamanders. Each of these elemental spirits gives you a piece of the puzzle in alchemical wisdom. If you’re still awake as the story comes to an end, I’ll guide you through a sleep meditation that calls on the four classical elements.

  • This is a remix of a previously published story - I hope you enjoy this version with music.

    In tonight’s folklore-inspired sleep story accompanied by ambient music, you are the recipient of a strange fairy bestowal: to take the form of a different animal at each Full Moon. As the day wanes, you reflect on the many forms you’ve taken over the last year, and how much you’ve learned from the experience. You look forward to tonight’s incarnation in your favorite form: that of the wolf. As the moon rises, you awaken to your wildest self and embrace the freedom of the forest. If you’re still awake as the story concludes, I’ll guide you through a breathing exercise to open the throat chakra.
