Sleep Stories

Sleep Stories to help you fall asleep easily. When anxiety, insomnia or spinning thoughts are keeping you awake, press play on a sleep story to relax your body and clear your mind so you can melt into deep sleep. Our stories are generated by AI and intentionally created to meander and even be nonsensical at times. We do this so your mind will attach to the stories just enough to allow your body to relax, but not enough to keep you awake and interested. Narrated by Jody Agard and Rebekah Romberg and brought to you by Katie Krimitsos and the Women’s Meditation Network.

  • 55 - Hello From Katie 💓 - Slow Down to Speed Up + A Million Little Reasons

    Hey, it’s Katie and I’m here for a mid-month check in. How are you? How’s your month coming along? How’s your mental health?  We’re well into Mental Health Awareness Month and I hope you’ve really been enjoying all the bonus and guest meditations we’ve been providing across the network. The team and I have been working hard to make sure you have a wide variety of meditations and voices to support you!  I’m sharing honestly today about why we need to “slow down to speed up” and what that’s actually looked like for me this month (single mommying with hubs out of town, end of school extra activities and moving!). It ain’t been pretty y'all.  But I’m sharing because we all have these heavy seasons and I’ll walk you through what worked for me to lighten the load and helped me slow down, all in the name of preserving my mental health.  I also share a poem/meditation I wrote recently called “A Million Little Reasons” that I hope really speaks to your heart.  ANNOUNCEMENTS: 1) Tuesday, May 21 is World Meditation Day! We’re celebrating with a special “World Meditation Day Meditation” going live on all our podcasts. Come meditate with us!  2) FREE MASTERCLASS: On June 18 at 1pm est, I’ll be co-hosting a Live Masterclass with my friend JJ Flizanes called “The Roadmap to Emotional Healing.” You can find out more and sign up for free here:  http://jjflizanes.com/wmn Lastly, if you’re enjoying our meditations, we would be so grateful for your rating and reviews on Apple Podcasts!

She twinkled brightly amongst her fellow stars, glowing with a soft, silvery light. Though small, Misty's shine could be seen for miles across the sleepy countryside below. Each night, as the sun slipped below the horizon, Misty would begin to twinkle. She loved watching the world slowly drift off to sleep. The first to fall asleep were always the little farm animals in the fields and barns. The cows, horses, sheep, and chickens would snuggle into their beds of hay, tuck their heads down, and let out big, sleepy sighs. Misty would blink her light gently over them like a nightlight, singing a soft twinkling lullaby. Next to fall under Misty's sleepy spell were the wild creatures of the forest and meadows. Owls would stop their hooting, bears would lumber back to their dens, rabbits would hop slowly to their burrows, and deer would nestle down in the soft forest underbrush. Misty's twinkling glow and melodic lullaby would soothe them all into slumber. Finally, the families living in the little farm houses dotted across the land would start to settle in for the night. Parents would tuck their children snugly into bed, place sweet kisses on their little foreheads, and tip-toe from the rooms. Then Misty would beam her gentlest, warmest light over the farmhouses, twinkling in time with her lullaby. She wouldn't stop her song until the last light in the last little farmhouse was switched off for the night... 💗💗💗 Check out all the deals from our incredible sponsors here! --> https://womensmeditationnetwork.com/sponsors 💗💗💗 Check out all of our other podcasts at https://womensmeditationnetwork.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

  • 53 - Harmony in the Himalayas: Finding Inner Peace on the Mountain Slopes

Just a few clicks makes it easy for you to listen on your favorite podcast player.  Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium The air was crisp and cool as I stepped off the plane into the Himalayas. I took a deep breath, filling my lungs with the fresh mountain air. I had come to the highest peaks on earth seeking inner peace and a respite from the hectic pace of modern life. This journey represented a new chapter, an opportunity to slow down and reconnect with nature. I made my way to the small village where I would be staying for the next few weeks. The village sat nestled between rolling green foothills, with snow-capped peaks rising majestically in the distance. The pace of life here was wonderfully slow - no crowded streets, no traffic jams, no constant bombardment of advertisements and media. Just the soothing sounds of nature and the kind smiles of the villagers. After settling into my lodgings, a cozy room in a family-run homestay, I ventured out to explore the village and its surroundings. I wandered dirt paths between modest stone and brick dwellings. Chickens clucked and scratched in the yards, small goats bleated as they wandered in and out of open barn doors. In a small courtyard, an elderly woman smiled kindly at me as she spun wool into yarn with an ancient hand-carded spinning wheel. The days here followed the rhythms of nature and seasons, not the artificial cycles imposed by factories and corporations. I could feel my racing mind begin to quiet just from these first few hours surrounded by the peaceful village... 💗💗💗 Check out all the deals from our incredible sponsors here! --> https://womensmeditationnetwork.com/sponsors 💗💗💗 Check out all of our other podcasts at https://womensmeditationnetwork.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

  • 51 - Debra's Journey to Dreamland on a Midnight Train

Just a few clicks makes it easy for you to listen on your favorite podcast player.  Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Debra sank into her seat as the midnight train slowly pulled out of the station. She was exhausted after her long day at the office and was looking forward to a peaceful ride to help her unwind and rest. As the train picked up speed, the gentle rocking motions lulled Debra into a relaxed state. She gazed out the window as images of the day flashed through her mind. Meetings, phone calls, emails - her busy work life always kept her on the go. But now, on this train, she could feel the tensions of the day slipping away. Outside, the full moon shimmered across the dark countryside. They passed by a lake where the silver waters sparkled in the moonlight. The scene was so serene. Debra felt her eyelids getting heavy. She settled into her seat, resting her head against the cushioned headrest behind her. The clickety-clack of the train tracks grew hypnotic. She let her mind wander to all the faraway places this midnight train could take her. Where might she wake up when morning comes? The swaying of the train car made Debra feel like she was rocking gently in a cradle. She pulled her sweater up over her shoulders like a cozy blanket. Other passengers on the train were starting to doze off too. The lights dimmed to a soft glow. It felt almost magical, this journey they were on together through the dark of night... 💗💗💗 Check out all the deals from our incredible sponsors here! --> https://womensmeditationnetwork.com/sponsors 💗💗💗 Check out all of our other podcasts at https://womensmeditationnetwork.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
