Life can be so exhausting that we all can forget to stop and ask “how am I feeling today?”. So,thanks for reminding me to spare some time for myself no matter how busy I am. Good night everybody:)
OMG I'm an Aussie and have driven along the great ocean road hundreds of times! This is so exciting.
Good morning from Australia Stephen. Good evening for you I imagine. I'm from Victoria and I woke up this morning to find this. Can't wit until bedtime tonight. Thank you so very much for your beautiful stories I listen every night. I have very strong Irish heritage. But two of my ancestors got a free boat trip down here in the late 1700s. Mary Brennan at 16 and Samuel Oddnbaker at 23. My Nanna maternal Nanna was oh so proud that her family were free settlers and she was their first Aussie born child in 1890.

Need this now more than ever, I need peace. I feel like giving up things are so hard right now life is getting way to much I'm so lost. I just want things to get better. I have PTSD anxiety depression adhd, its all to much, changing over medication is so hard. I need a break 😢 your stories are keeping me going.

I know that I'm just some random stranger, but I want to say that I'm pulling for you, and I hope things get better for you, and I hope you can find some peace and comfort. Hang in there and please know that you're not alone in your struggles. I stand with you.
I stand with you as well. I hope these stories can help you at least get some peaceful sleep. Sending Reiki, and good vibes😊💚
Hi Chris. I’m sending my best to you. Life can be too much for sure. All I can say is what I have learned over the years is when I’m feeling like things are tough, is to be gentle and kind with myself. It’s easier said than done I know, but if you can find it within yourself just to pause and think kindly upon yourself it might ease the struggle. That’s what I try and do anyway. I wish you peace my friend.
Stephen 🙏🏻

I listen to you every night. Sometimes I fall asleep before the end but I listen again till I hear the end.
I’ve just started listening to him at night and have yet to finish half the story part. I feel that I get through the body relaxation and a bit of the storyline; then I wake up in the morning listening to rain and ocean waves.😮😊
Sometimes? I dont think ive ever finsihed a story yet! If i listen to them again i can get further but ive never made it through! Sweetest dreams to you!❤
Greetings from down under Australia 🇦🇺 particularly looking forward to this one 😀
Thank you. Sending love from Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you for your stories. You have truly helped me through my grieving process of losing my mom. Your voice is so comforting. Blessings to you
Good evening from Australia, it’s now 11pm and looking forward to listening to this story tonight. Thank you for travelling across the shores to join us who listen to you from Australia. I actually do feel we are very distant from the rest of the world and it can be quite a lonely feeling. I’m sure your story will beautifully describe its unique magic. Thank you ❤😘
I know ive said it before ,but you're voice and stories are such a comfort -especially to those on our own.Sending thanks and good wishes from across the water.
Your beginning exercises are so calming. They help me really let go of all the stress, anxiety & worries of the day & relax into your sleep story. So appreciated
relmmm. It helps me to
I agree. It's a familiar friendly voice to listen to each night
I'm liking the video *before* I watch so I don't forget in the morning ❤❤ Thank you for your great work, Stephen.
I cannot wait for this one. I got to go to Australia about 15 years ago with my mother and I absolutely loved it. Thank you so much.
I tell my husband I am now going to sleep with Stephen. I have a lot of trouble getting to sleep but find I am always asleep before the end of the story. Before I would close my eyes and my brain would gear up. Now I listen to your calming voice. Thank you so much. Cheers from Australia
Thank you so much for these sleep stories. I used to listen to calming music, but my mind would still wander. The stories keep me focused on your voice so I don't start thinking of things I can worry about tomorrow. I fall asleep quickly, have great dreams and sleep better than I have slept in years.
You asked if other places come to mind... for me, that would be Africa.
Thank you again for your work, 🥰
Emily
I listening every night I can't follow a sleep without
I’ve been listening to your stories to help me sleep for ages now and this one has to be the most comforting. I grew up on the great ocean road and moved away 2 years ago. I’ve struggled to sleep since because I’m so home sick so this was seriously a gift. Thankyou so much ❤
Wonderful Jessica - not that you are homesick of course 🤦🏻♂️ But that this helped you and you felt it was accurate ❤️🙏🏻
HVeyou ever been to Australia Stephen. If not you must come. If you have please come back for another visit. 😊
No never. But I’d love to go. 👍🏻🙏🏻😊
I had a rough day. I just started hearing the story, and my heart already feels better. So, thank you ❤
You are such a part of my routine. I most often fall asleep shortly after you say "one". Thank you.🎉
Thank you for this beautiful story. Again I had to listen to it this morning because I was asleep soon after the countdown. Your voice is so rich and comforting. I live alone at 78 trying to raise my grandson since my daughter passed recently. I have my animals, cats, dogs and horses to keep me motivated, but look forward every night to hearing your beautiful stories. Love again from rainy southern California! ❤ to Timmy and Rebecca as well.
Thank you Lucie. I see all of your messages. I have replied before but I don’t know if you see the replies. I hope you are ok and I wish you peace 🙏🏻
Yayyy just In time
You’re in my back yard Stephen ❤❤❤❤ been a while since I’ve had time to listen. It’s a great helper for me to unwind from shift work. Absolute LEGEND!
Wow Stephen!! Beautifully done! My heart is filled with peace💕💕
Your stories and voice have helped me so much. Thank you. The relaxation exercises are so important.
Just wanted to say thank you for your stories. You are the reason that I was able to sleep through some of the most stressful nights of my life. Thank you so much!
Australia 🌊☀️
Beautiful music! As a musician I really appreciate that. And a lovely story. Thanks! You are now my sleeping time companion every night.
Thank you for all your sleep stories they help me so much ❤
A new story, yay! 💙 I don't want to wish my evening away, but I can't wait for bedtime tonight. Thank you...😴💤🥱
I sleep peacefully ever since I found this channel.
Some nights i dont even get through the relaxation countdown from 10 to 1 and im asleep your voice has kept me company for the past few weeks during a difficult time and i cant thank you enough, and i promise i will hear the start and finish of your storys soon, but for now my body must need the rest if im getting to sleep so fast, it wont last so ill be listening to your wonderful storys soon, im also taking you on my summer holiday this year to listen while relaxing on a hot beach with my earphones in 😂...thank you so much for the work you do for us all and the comfort you have brought me ❤❤
Always amazing and very helpful xxx
Thank you I was born and raised in Australia and your story brought back happy memories as well as sleep. Thank you very much
Thank you so much for this wonderful journey along a road I have known so well. For 30+ yrs we lived within an hours drive of Lorne the township at the official beginning of the Great Ocean Rd and we'd often go there for a drive. In fact we spent our honeymoon traveling along the Great Ocean Rd. It is truly a Spiritual/magical place. Although it is beautiful at anytime of the year, my favourite time is mid winter amongst the winter storms.
Thank you for all your lovely sleep stories but especially the Underwater Adventure one and The Bookshop of Sleep series (I wish there were more of both of these) I don't sleep very well these days so your stories are a great help.
Thankyou ❤❤
Hi Steven
Hi Stephen, very much looking forward to listening to this story about the Great Ocean Road and Australia (my home for 28 years now). I am sure that you have many, many Australian listeners in our community. Thank you for sharing this story about our beautiful country.
Ps. I hope you are not working too hard with all of these stories. I dont know how you do it but every single one is very different, interesting, relaxing, soothing & most importantly safe.
Love to you, Rebecca & Timmy from Nth Queensland 😊
I love going to different places whit u it teaches me about countries I have never seen ,most times I need to listen to the story twice as I fall asleep,Thank you
Thanks you Steven I look forward to your stories and can’t sleep without them thank you so much 😊
Thank you for this sleep story, Stephen. I wasn't feeling quite right when I went to bed tonight, and after a little prayer time your sleep story is helping me drift off. I even put it on a loop.
Hi Sabrina nice to see you again 🙏🏻😊
I look forward to your stories each night Stephen. I personally find the background music a distraction from your soothing voice and prefer natural sounds of rain, waves, wind etc. Thankyou. 😊
Love your stories, thank you. A story on the Silk Road would be nice ❤
Come down to the Florida Everglades and drive Alligator Alley. Notice the air smells fecund and the birds are abundant. The humid breeze glistens your skin. Thank you for your lovely work. 💜
Hiya I always enjoy your posts you have a great voice so calming. A big thanks you ❤ ❤
Yesss!
Yay, a story close to home!

Listened multiple times ❤
I miss Australia! Drove this road just last year❤
Your voice and the background music go well with this one really like it and it’s quite long
Thankyou ,so loving your sleep stories,have been listening for a while now and feeling safe listening to your voice as I drift off to blissful sleep ,always had a spinning mind ,Thankyou for calming sleepful thoughts
I'm from Australia loving this drive as you promised
I haven't figured out any your voice puts me to sleep. I am thankful it does.
I have always loved anything Ireland connected. When I worked on my genealogy I found I am predominantly Irish. Wonder if there exists a DNA memory? LOL.
Anyway, thank you for sharing your talents. You have a beautiful talent, the fine descriptions of both the wonderful environments and the feelings they evoke. You are a great writer. Thank you for the bedtime stories.
Goodnight my friends from far and wide ❤ goodnight Stephen
Sleep wonderfully everybody❤😊

Thank you Stephen! From Gabriella of Australia.
Thank you !
Every thing feels very amasing here i like road trip
Woohoo the great ocean road is in my home town. Save me a drive😊
Good night Sweet Prince ❤❤❤ hey guys give 👍 up
Road trip outback with the roos etc❤
Today I am trying one of these when I have a migraine. I'll let you know how it goes. As some sounds make the pain worse but some make it better
I’d love to revisit the lighthouse from your first video. Like a new lighthouse keeper reading stories left in a journal from the previous watchman on a stormy night
I’m going to do this. Great idea
@@Stephen_Daltoncan’t tell you how excited I am to see this made!!
I once rode from Denver to Pike's Peak -- it'd be amazing to hear such a ride narrated by you 😌
Thoughts on another driving story: Perhaps a drive through several national parks in the desert southwest of America. The circle of parks in Utah quickly come to mind (Bryce, Zion, Arches, Capitol Reef, Canyonlands). Having a classic British car, there are a number of sounds (and smells) that you might be able to explore. The hum of the tires on the road, the rumble of the engine, especially if one is shifting going up or down a maintain side or winding valley, the sounds of the wind, etc. With a classic British car, the smells include the especially cozy smell of old leather and the (hopefully) faint smell of oil. (This one is a double-edged sword, as far too many people find the sounds of a car on the highway to be too cozy and they fall asleep at the wheel. Maybe this should have a public service/warning notice?)
Hi thank you so much for your videos they really help me a lot ...can you please do a roadtrip through Cape Town South Africa ❤
I would love to hear a cross Canada story!
Good night Stephen Dalton ❤🎉
Ventura highway from Baja to Redwoods in a 1960s Corvette convertible. Rumble rumble purrrrrr. 😂 Or the proverbial hippie VW bus... Thank you for all you do.
Thank you Stephen, I would love to hear more road trip stories from you. Can I suggest a road trip through Alaska or Canada 😊
I ❤ this

Sleep story in the in the Rain flores t of Amazone / Brazil

road trip to the Ngorogoro Crater
Do you live in Australia? Btw I love your story’s your great at making them! I’m Aussie !
Ive found i can only listen to your voice however im super picky about stories and your voice tone. I love everything you do though! ❤
Maine
Fabulous....i go there often. How about magical Uluru in NT Aust. That is a place with great history and culture
Good night from Australia. No rainforest on the great ocean road, you’re travelling through a desert.
Sorry, I got mixed up with the location. I looked up Great Ocean Road, and there is a forest. But honestly how can a rainforest be on the Southern coast of Victoria. Northern Queensland girl here and not familiar with the area in the story.
How about a story about a spa vacation to provence france or the French riviera
Can we take a road trip to Sydney Australia? With rain ?
Stars can was very fantastick to itchader specaly on the nigt
Hello
I know this is a weird request, but is it possible to make the base audio of the video a little louder? I have to sleep with ear plugs but like to listen to you before bed.
A trip in Scotland
Real pictures would help the imagination.
I love the story but the background music was too repetitive and distracting for me to finish the story or fall asleep😞
Oh wow I bee so very currasety for now .
Please ,dont forget the hips and shoulders, that is the most tight area of the body.Thanks much love to you!
I just want to share my usual thoughts - thank you for your work and your videos. They really help bring me peace every night. ☮️
