(Full Music Version) To Run with Wolves

bonus

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.

Ep 6The Departure of the Elves

Build a magical world alongside the elves in tonight’s high fantasy bedtime story. In tonight’s story, you – an immortal elf – face the end of an age in your realm. As magic fades from the world, you and your kind construct a new, enchanted world to inhabit, leaving the ordinary behind. But you reflect on the little wonders left on the other side of the veil, and ponder whether you might prefer to stay in the mortal realm, tending to what small magics remain. Sleep & Sorcery is a folklore and fantasy-inspired sleep series. My name is Laurel, and I’ll be your guide on tonight’s fantastical journey. Sleep & Sorcery is one part bedtime story, one part guided meditation, and one part dreamy adventure.

Ep 1The Huluppu Tree

Plant mystical roots in this reimagining of the Mesopotamian myth of Inanna and the Huluppu Tree. In tonight’s bedtime story, as you are tending to your garden on the banks of the river, a sapling washes ashore. You plant the unfamiliar tree and admire its qualities, hoping to carve it into a majestic throne once it is full grown. However, you soon find your tree overrun with animals and spirits who seek to make it their home. You enlist your brother’s help to remove your rivals, and he fashions for you a magnificent throne and bed from the tree; yet you come to regret its destruction. At last, with new seeds in the earth, you learn the tree’s true impact on your community, and you make amends with its former residents. If you’re still awake at the end of the story, I’ll guide you through a relaxing visualization.
