Welcome back my friend! Tonight’s bedtime story is a masterpiece penned by legendary Oscar Wilde called ‘The Nightingale and the Rose’, a beautiful story of love, sacrifice, and the beauty of nature. A tale that transports us to a garden not so different from one you might find in a dream, where a nightingale overhears a young student who is weeping over unattainable love and decides to embark on a heartfelt quest.
The storytelling begins with a beautiful short guided relaxation with soothing sounds to help you relax and settle in. The story also ends with a short relaxation to help you transition into a restful night's sleep. I hope this episode helps you feel calm and at ease! I wish you the sweetest of dreams!
Your friend,
Joanne
