I am a insomniac I never get more than 3 hour sleep with the aid of a sleeping tablet. I ran out of tablets last night and put this on hand on heart I got 6 hours sleep for the first time in years. So huge thanks to the maker and reader! ❤️
The over alert part of your brain got distracted by following the calm, soft words. So the other parts of your brain staged a coup d'etat. You might try some ASMR vids too. There are a wonderful variety. There's bound to be some artists that work for you. Good hunting!
I have sleep issues also. Calcium and magnesium have helped me. I also eat a little protein b4 bed. Tuna and milk contain tryptophan. Jin shen jitsu is a form of acupressure that helps with ailments. Theres a website that references many different pressure holds for various issues. Take a look. Cheers.
when i was very little my mom would tell me bedtime stories or sing to me, but after my father and step father died (one in September, one in April) she stopped reading or singing, and just went to sleep without saying goodnight. i understood but was still saddened, so i started reading Grimm’s fairytales to myself (mostly Rumpelstiltskin and Sweetheart Roland) but i lost the book in a move. Anyway, I’m 16 now and my mother recently beat cancer, but she still struggles. Now I tell her bedtime stories or sing lullabies, but its still nice to have someone tell me a story so I can fall asleep. I know this comment was very jumbled and poorly written, and that it will likely go unnoticed, but thank you, from the bottom of my heart. I hope you continue to post and help people like me fall asleep. ♥️
sounds odd, sorry for making this post uncomfortable for everyone else.....but your voice is so similar to that of my girlfriend that passed away. ....was such a blessing to "hear her again" thank you.
Me and my puppy listen to this every night before bed. I put her in the kennel and she would whine for a second until I played this and she would instantly stop crying and go to sleep. She’s now snoring. It’s our nightly routine now but there is no more crying when it’s bedtime. She loves it so much. Thank you for this.
@@madmaxmcinnes4102 you don’t know me at all but this was a temporary potty training technique so that she didn’t get up at night and poop and piss all over my house. You will be happy to know that she’s in the bed now (alone with her fur brother). Not because you said that because that was the decision we made once we got potty trained and could hold her bladder more than two mores. My dogs are my life and if you did know me, you would know that. They are my family.
Actually you had it right the first time. You should never let your dog sleep in the bed with you. Dogs do not think like human's do. In the wild the alpha dog or leader of the pack always eats firts, gets the choice parts of the kill, and is always positioned higher than the rest, literally. He shows his authority by physically positioning himself higher than the rest. By bringing your dog in your bed, you are telling him that he is equal in the hiarchey with you which should never be the case. In your house you need to be the alpha dog if you wish to gain his respect. You don't necessarily have to put him in a cage (although that's not bad) he just needs to sleep in an area below you. A nice soft pillow on the floor beside your bed would be perfect. Just never in the bed with you. I know you love your dog but dogs do not think like we do and they never will. That's one mistake we as human's make. Dogs need structure in their lives and without it they will become confused and once they no longer see you as the alpha in the pack it may create behavioral problems down the road. I know you love your dog but sleeping on a pillow on the floor beside your bed will not make your dog love you any less.
This story has been a life savor several times with my almost ,3 month old. Your voice puts her to sleep in seconds! I found this by chance one day and I now play it several times a day for her lol
I love how this videos audio is loud enough to fall asleep to on my phone and still hear it clearly without having it sitting right next to my dang head.
My daughter was up last night she was afraid to go to sleep. Because she has nightmare. She is 3 years old. I found this Beautiful story with the most exquisite soothing voice. And she fell asleep within minutes. I was thankful 🙏 I finally went to bed to get some rest. At 4 am!!
My 4 year old and I were searching for a boring story to fall asleep to, not only did he fall asleep quickly, you captivated me. Thank you for what you do.
beautiful story 🌸Don't know if someone is reading this,🌸 but if you are🌸 You are amazing and beautiful🌸heads up you can do everything 🌸 I believe in you!🌸
Oh how wonderful this is in every way. My cat and I.. lying sprawled on the floor in the middle of the day... happy as can be, in and out of snooze lol!

Hi Joanne I do appreciate your beautiful voice and the work you are doing. Whenever I can't go to sleep, your stories are my go to! Thank you very much!
Hello friends :) Here is the first bedtime story of 2021! This is a really nice tale called The City Under The Sea and I enjoyed it so much while I was recording it. I hope you do as well! Wishing you a peaceful night's rest and stay safe! Sweetest dreams, Joanne xo
Finished this story just for the fun of it! Loved it! A very classic style fairy tale, and the mystery holds your interest. And the ending was just perfect!
Last night, I turned it on. Next thing I know, I'm waking up and it's over. That really put me to sleep good. Thank you. Listening to a different story tonight.
Y'all gotta subscribe first such a beautiful calming voice, a awesome story, and great to do in times of doing homework or just trying to fall asleep, AND ITS AD FREE. I just wanna say thank you so much! ❤️
Mam, I didn’t get your name but I wanna say… I never knew I could hear/listen to a beautiful long bed time story on UA-cam!!!. I thank you for I can not sleep at night as my clock is that of a 3rd shift person. So now every morning at 8am when I lay down, I turn on your story telling and within the hour I’m out like a light!!!. Thanks mam - thanks for the long stories for they help me to sleep!
Such a beautiful and calming story. The soft voice reading really adds to the serenity of the moment. I’m ready to dream of the city under the sea tonight! 🌙💤
I just wanted to say thank you for the sleep I was able to get last night. I've been having really bad nausea and anxiety the past week and listening to you read this made it so much easier.
It took me 4 or 5 nights to get through this… because I fell asleep to the calming voice every time. It was such a good story I kept coming back. Wonderful narration as well.
So well produced and styled. Such a good story in a format that is like a mind massage. Listened to tbis three times and have yet to hear the end. Well done!
This was the first goodnight story I found, when I decided to try it out. It took me nearly a month to get through it, and it is still one of my favourite stories to go too. Thank you for this great help Joanne
I was at the mist of a panic attack and i looked up stories to hopefully find one to help calm me down. I listened to this whole thing and it was like my anxiety wasn't there. This worked wonders for me
I know this comment is a year late but that's exactly what I did. My anxiety is peeking and i also came on here to look for a longer story that can take me away for awhile. Or I'll go to audiobooks. 😊
Thank you so much!!! I had a stressful day and when that happens I'm up and down all night. Found this video at 2am and thought I'll try anything at this point. It worked!!!! No ads is great 😊 Have to say I also took melatonin and it wasn't helping cause my stress level was so high.
Anybody else get excited when they come across a video like this during the day and then save it under their (asmr) folder and the rest of the day you look forward to going to sleep 😴 💤 haha 🤣
Thank you for this! I have had a lot of anxiety with work lately and not only was this a great story but you have a very calming voice. It was nice not to think about work for a change and just relax.
I’m a chronic insomniac and this sends me to sleep every night now. I’m actually curious to know the end of the story because I never get to it 😂 that’s my only “complaint”! Amazingly effective.
Thanks for this story. I play it for my 5 years old son. He fell asleep and I kept listen to it to the end. 🙏❤️. I tried to visualize the city under the water. Amazing descriptions.
I have been listening to your channel for a while now and is my 'go to' when I want to unwind. Thanks so much for your lovely stories and soothing tones x
A lot of voices annoy me when trying to sleep but this was perfect. I loved the story and was asleep before the end two nights in a row!! Thank you so much for this.
Ok ok I'm definitely not an adult but this is the 3rd night I've listened to this like your voice is so relaxing and it puts me asleep so fast and its super good especially when I need to be asleep for school so I wake up good tysm
Thanks for your stories. The extended pauses after each sentence in this story, more than your others, really help put me to sleep. I don't know what it is about audible silence, but it's effective. I wish you'd do more of it.
Thank you for your feedback...I will implement that suggestion in my future recordings! I believe the pauses may help the brain waves slow down more easily which then helps you get sleepy. 😴😊🙏
I don't know what trouble burdens you, but I hope it gets better for you soon. I'm 40 and went through hell at your age. You aren't alone. Good vibes to you youngster
Let's take a moment and appreciate that this video is ad free 🤝🥳

A family pet, in your case a dog, shouldn't be stuck in a kennel at night ........ it should be sleeping beside you, because it's part of the family.

1M views on this one alone! Wow! Congratulations Joanne! 🎉💕 It certainly is one of my favorites. I've listened 5-10 times. 💗💗💗
I wonder if the 3rd time is the charm--that is to actually listen to the story! I have fallen asleep twice already right at the beginning 😊
Ive fallen asleep 3 times to this. Today was the first time i actually listened to the entirety. Thank you for doing this
SADLY i didn't fell a sleep but fortunately i heard and imagined the whole story my god its beautiful thank you
