Stories for Getting Back to Sleep

By: Diane Gillespie

Narrated by: Diane Gillespie

In this book, educational psychologist Diane Gillespie, PhD, uses her knowledge and understanding of stories to craft sleep scenarios designed to help people fall back to sleep in the middle of the night.

The stories are set in relaxing places conducive to sleep: cozy mountain cabins, luxurious spas, a tropical beach, an overstuffed chair in a Victorian Bed and Breakfast.

In each story, the character secures her surroundings. Then through the process of attending to peaceful details in the setting, she relaxes her body, lets worries float away, and sinks deeper and deeper into stillness - until she is sound asleep.

Listeners are encouraged to remember the sequence of events so that in darkness they can crawl back into bed, pull up their covers, imagine themselves in the stories, and go back to sleep.

Love this book

Luckily this book has such boring but good short stories to listen to while I’m trying to Sleep. I wish it would play on an endless loop so I can listen to it without starting it over throughout the night.
