I like to have helpful animals, and to live in a world where everything gets along and can communicate with each other, or learn to communicate with each other...
Worked great! I have cancer and I'm always uncomfortable and have trouble falling asleep I didn't get more than a few minutes in and was out. Thank you
I live in a cabin surrounded by pine trees. I have two rescue dogs and a few stray cats. In the winter, sometimes the deer shelter on my front porch from the wind and snow. I often imagine how they view through the windows at me and the animals sitting by the fire. There is a family of raccoons living in the garage. Winter is a lovely and peaceful time.
i’ve been struggling with an anxiety problem for a couple of years and it’s been making it a lot harder for me to fall asleep, i tried many ways to overcome my stress and anxiety but nothing could work so properly but then i decided to do something different for myself then i found this channel on youtube! thanks god, i know u don’t believe it but it really did work for me!! listening to these bedtime stories everyday literally made me feel a lot calmer, now i can fall asleep easier than ever before!!! thanks thanks thanks
Thank you so much from someone who has found it hard to get a good nights sleep for a long time, and NOW thanks to you Dan I can.Listening every nights😁
Thank you so much for this amazingly creative and relaxing story. I’ve subscribed to your channel and I look forward to hearing many more stories. You’re very talented and your voice is extremely soothing. All the best to you and your loved ones!
OMG! my husband has severe insomnia and nothing works but he was fast asleep in less than 5 minutes. I dont know how long he will stay asleep but THANK YOU SO MUCH ..definitely will be part of our evening ritual at bed time. Couldn't subscribe fast enough. You are a blessing such a soothing voice
I finally fell asleep, FIRST TIME BEFORE 1:00 am in ages then YOUR LOUD ANNOUNCMENT RUDELY WAKES ME to remind us again to give you a thumbs up!! Come on!
You must have had autoplay turned on and another video after this must have started. There is no announcements after the sleep meditation because that would defeat the purpose of the meditation so I do that at the beginning to get it out of the way and then the whole meditation is interruption free.
I had listened to Creepypasta when I was going to bed. It had worked for awhile. I'd listen to an actual story, and by the end or half I'd be asleep. But there would be added noises, music that would make it difficult. And I don't want to listen to an audiobook because then I would want to follow the story and stay awake. This is the perfect medium. Parsed, calm, but enough to induce that meditative state that allows one to drift and fall asleep. I'm going to recommend you. Please keep up the work.
I listen to you every night. I love your stories. But you know I never heard the last part of the story, that's enough to understand how successful you were.Love you!
This story made my night! I‘m so grateful to fall asleep without medication and dreamt beautiful! Can’t believe that it’s free. You really do magic here✨ Thank you so much for sharing your gift.
Dan your imagination is truly fabulous , it really is! The pleasure of listening to your stories is great! Your voice very soothing too! stories for sleep, but I feel I am wanting to know how these stories end🤣and try and stay AWAKE😁
I have a lesion in the pons of my brain, it causes lots of crazy activity in my brain and makes it so hard to fall asleep and stay asleep. Not to mention my feeding pump, and any little noise used to wake me and keep me awake. But my physical therapist recommend I listen to you not too long ago and I'm so glad she did! Your voice is so calming and safe. It took a few tries, but now I can't sleep without it! Now I can't wait to sleep! 💙Thank you SO much! Sleep is so important for our bodies to heal!🙏💙 God Bless everyone!
@@GirlMomma yeah I do. My ms is paused now. I was diagnosed in 2015. Upon my dDiagnosis I committed myself to yoga and meditation and tried to change my state of mind. My latest MRI has shown that my MS is paused and my symptoms no longer bother me. I go to the gym at least five times a week. I would highly recommend for you to do the same. You need to believe it’s his mind over matter. I have three lesions and haven’t had any new ones since I committed my self to this.
I'm always pointing out that I'm doing hypnosis and include a link in the description to where I demonstrate and teach what I'm doing with a real client that includes myself and the client discussing with the audience afterwards about the experience and what I'm doing and why. I've also shared lessons on UA-cam teaching many of the hypnosis techniques used and teach about 15 hypnosis eCourses available via my website.
I discovered Dan about a year ago and have been a faithful listener since. I love many of the stories but I’ll have to say this one is a favorite! My happy place would be a cabin just as described. Of course I love that I fall asleep easily by listening to Dan’s stories but I also feel they make me more mindful in my daily life as well. Just like the characters in the stories, I try to notice the sound of my footsteps, the feel of the breeze on my face, and the sounds of the birds. Keep them coming Dan, I have recommended your channel to many people.
I actually thought it was a horror story 😏BUT I got sooo into this was eating a cake and dozed eating it,woke up couple mins later nearly choked..lay down and got back into it again ❤️❤️ And I have insomnia have had it for over 23 years.This was truly something else.❤️Amazing.Thank you so much.Subscribed before I dozed back off again.
Thank you! This was wonderful for this time of year in Canada! I would have loved it even more, if there was some soft music and fireplace sounds in the background. 😊
Please PLEASE don't add music or sound effects! There are plenty of great ones out there for those who are into that (The Honest Guys are probably the best). I simply can't listen to the ones that have music and/or added sounds. I think it would take away from your already very helpful, extremely successful videos. Sending lots of love, also from Canada.
I often listen and think 'I don't think I am going to fall asleep' as I think I'm still aware too far in and then the next minute I find I fell asleep... There is a new sleep meditation going up on my channel in 7 hours time. I have just finished editing, processing and uploading it... It is an hour long...
Thank you for subscribing, I've got about 160 guided meditations on my channel and make three new ones every week. I have created playlists so that people can find the types of meditations they like whether it is first or third person experience or meditations with animals or set in forests or by the sea etc, there are many categories to search through...
I actually slept, each time I awaken, I just re-played, I have chronic pain , a tragic accident, I live without pain medication, I’d rather live the way I live than the results of medication, I’m usually up most of the night, this is unbelievable, I have been to pain clinics, sleep clinics, all are for me useless, I awaken rested and refreshed for the first time in a Very Long Time,,,,, I’m able to care for my stock, it just a long time in doing so, I reduced my herd more than half, I know this is only one night, it’s just unimaginable how I feel today , I subscribed at the beginning of the third time I played this, say 2 a.m. or so at least it worked!!😁😉 for the first time in a long time I was not up before daybreak, thank you ,will try again tonight, hope it’s better , not only did I reduce my herd , I stopped rescue of horses , a large part of my life , excellent for me, hope I can resume this most vital work , for them and me, I live far from other people and enjoy my solitude, the Cabin and Snow fits right in for me , my gratitude for my First good nights Sleep in a very long time,,, a good nights sleep for me is not waking up 5-6 times a night, or just a few hours then up till the next night , ,,,, Therefore my Sincere Thanks For One Good night out of Quite a few years, most Thankful For this Much,,, now I’ll read others comments ,,, Ta Ta
I'm curious if it helped you again. I've been struggling with insomnia for quite awhile, also do to pain, and I'm going to try this tonight. Hope it worked for you again, and hope it helps me tonight ;)
I've been suffering bouts of insomnia since Christmas. I heard all of this the way through and thought "I''m never getting to sleep". Next thing it was morning! thank you so much from a (formally) exhausted woman :-)
Ive been extremely sick with the flu with a fever and these videos were the only things that would help me fall asleep. Thank you so much for making me forget about my sickness long enough to get some much needed rest. Everybody use hand sanitizer and make sure if you go out anywhere like dave n busters for example you keep some wipes with you to wipe down the games etc. pretty sure thats how i got sick.😢 stay safe, and cozy everyone.💖
I usually like to listen to an audiobook while I walk my cat around the yard but this was definetly a nice and calming alternitive to add to an adventure outside. When the gerbil went inside my cat somehow wanted to do the same. 😅
Thank you. For me, it’s better to listen to someone speaking in a normal, faster rate, but I can see how it would work for people who don’t really have issues falling asleep. It’s a nice effort.
Mysticalmaid Yes. I realize how insulting I must’ve sounded too.😬 I hope I didn’t offend him.😞 I actually think he has a good voice and is sweet to provide this.
If I don't click like before I listen or make a comment before I listen then I'm asleep before I can do either one. Look forward to your stories all the time. Thank you so much prayer time an effort to help other people. Helps me greatly thank you so much
Your sleep story by far is the best one out of all the ones out there. I love the short pauses between lines. It’s the only one that gets me to sleep within the shortest amount of time. Thank you so much. Subscribed for life!
I don't talk this slow. I talk normally. And still while talking over the phone with my ex at night, lying on bed... She used to fall asleep most of the night while i was talking. I didn't take it as an insult. One might find it offensive. I found it sweet. She found comfort in my voice. I took it as compliment.
Thank you, I can't wait to listen to this story when I get off work. I work overnights at a hospital and your stories are the perfect thing to help me get to sleep (which is usually hard because it's daytime when I'm trying to sleep). I love your stories! 💖
Just read some comments, sure a lot of this is just being facetious, please change nothing, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, this definitely ain’t broke!!!
These need to be recorded louder so that we have to turn our volume down, otherwise, when the ads interrupt, it jolts me awake with a much higher volume.
I don't put ads in my meditations only at the beginnings so you shouldn't have that problem. I can't record them louder or else they will be clipping. They are already peaking at -3dB during recording and in the final video so on my computer for example they are very loud even with my volume turned right down. It is the nature of advertising that ads are made to play louder than what they are playing in, so if I turned up the meditations volume more the ads would still be played louder, you would still have the same problem you would just be using an even lower volume setting to get the same loudness. It is recommended that videos peak between -12dB and -6dB so I already make my videos too loud, this is so that the stories are then slightly louder than the introduction as there is a lot more vocal range in my stories so I want the listener to be able to hear it fine even if they aren't using headphones regardless of what I am saying in the meditation.
@@DanJonesHypnosis I guess UA-cam gets to decide when to put in ads, then, since my phone goes to ads every few minutes. Do you have downloadable options?
In theory creators get to decide where ads go. When we upload a video it says to Rick where ads will show. I always tick for ads to show before the video and don't tick to allow midroll ads or ads after my stories. UA-cam recently announced on their own channel that they are putting ads in the middle of videos without the creators permission to test whether it will make more money. I have had over a year of fighting UA-cam on this as this was happening and so I thought it was a glitch and UA-cam denied it was happening until a month or two ago when they announced they have been doing this, so midroll ads are off, but until UA-cam finishes it's stupid test where creators get no choice to stop the midroll ads there is a risk of them showing. Every few months I've been reminding subscribers to check and if it looks like ads will show then refresh, if it still looks like ads will show then watch a different video for now. UA-cam said one they have finished testing then midroll ads will likely be turned on all videos by default so creators will have to go through all their back catalogue of videos turning them off if they don't want them on. Currently they aren't showing as on yet so I can't go through and turn them off. I recommend that people use my sleep stories podcast where you don't get ads or my UA-cam introduction just the MP3 of the stories which you can put in playlists etc. A number of my tracks are also available on things like Spotify, Amazon music, iTunes/Apple music, Google Play etc, and on numerous apps like Slumber and AudioJoy.
Dan Jones Hypnosis - Guided Sleep Meditations I think they are perfect the way they are, don’t change a thing Dan, and it saddens me that you have to defend yourself at all.
Getting right into the story/meditation instead of begging for subs/likes is better for this style of video. I tend to sub channels that do that. That being said.. You have a nice voice and the stories are great. I also like the dark theme. I tend to turn my phone over while listening and the dark helps block visual stimuli.
UA-cam actively tells creators to do a brief call to action for likes, subscribes and comments etc on their videos because of the very significant difference it makes. Before I did this my videos would get almost no engagement and each video generated very few subscribers. On adding this my subscribers per video went from about 2-4 new subscribers across the first month of a video being live to this increasing straightaway to about 10-20 new subscribers across the first month of a video being live and likes went from 1-2 likes a month on a video to over a dozen likes on a video. It makes an enormous difference just having that 25 second introduction explaining what I do on my channel and reminding people they can like and subscribe etc. There is no begging, just reminding people because the research shows most people don't take action without a call to action to prompt and remind them. I frequently get comments from people saying that they had watched one of my videos thinking they will subscribe if it works but then falling asleep and forgetting and then in trying another video and seeing the prompt, remembering to do that and then subscribing.
@@DanJonesHypnosis that's funny. My reply to you was deleted I guess. I said I get it, but it really makes it less appealing. Have you ever listened to Michael Sealy? Jason Stephenson? Joe T? I can't remember every other video I've listened to for bedtime, but I don't recall any of them ever asking for subs, just your personal safety (don't drive etc while listening) . And they are very popular. And I also subscribed to them because their content speaks for itself. I can start relaxing immediately. No thoughts about anything but the guidance into sleep. Waking up the video is still first thing I see when I open my phone, and feeling well rested is what made me subscribe. Look all I mean is, you have a good thing going. I don't think the request adds to it. I'm not trying to be rude. It's just not a bedtime type of thing. I relax more quickly with less of that type of jabber. I only wanted to say something because I thought it would improve upon your video. I don't offer my thoughts to people unless I think they are worth my time. Your very long response seemed like you were agitated with my words, and if I hurt your feelings I apologize. I intended it to be feedback, that's all. And one more thing. I found you because I searched the subject as an alternative to meditation and hypnosis. I tend to look for the more obscure, and share what I find with others. Word of mouth is good too.
Hey you! Stop scrolling and lie down. Have an enjoyable sleep while listening to this great story! Let yourself drift in to true comfort!
:D
Ok dad gnight🤫
Thankyou random person i shall sleep now. Goodnight
I've never heard the end of the story because its so calm and relaxing. I want to be there every night.
I love this. Anything to do with snow! I like how the animals talk to each other and help each other 💖
I like to have helpful animals, and to live in a world where everything gets along and can communicate with each other, or learn to communicate with each other...

@@darrellwiegand7926 Good man!
Prayers for you.
I hope you have rest and peace each night
This story is my all time favorite. Someday I'll hear the end...
I live in a cabin surrounded by pine trees. I have two rescue dogs and a few stray cats. In the winter, sometimes the deer shelter on my front porch from the wind and snow. I often imagine how they view through the windows at me and the animals sitting by the fire. There is a family of raccoons living in the garage. Winter is a lovely and peaceful time.
Sounds like my kind of place...
Took me many years to find it and buy it. I look around at my log walls, and count my blessings that I have created a place of peace.
Perhaps mention, there is a special quiet in the winter. The snow blankets everything in softness.
I just want to listen to you describe your home...!
I want to be there, I need to live in such a place

Where would I be without Dan Jones sleep stories. I would never sleep!

Roberta Hubert I have listened to Dan for a year now I think he does hypnosis too. He is awesome my husband and I love to sleep with his stories!!
How’s your husband doing now? I’m learning how to sleep again myself. I’m gonna give this a try tonight.
I finally fell asleep, FIRST TIME BEFORE 1:00 am in ages then YOUR LOUD ANNOUNCMENT RUDELY WAKES ME to remind us again to give you a thumbs up!! Come on!

The sound of a fire crackling in the backround would be a cool touch
I
Karen Cawthorn have you found a better video like this? I’d like to try it
Karen, look for an app called Sleep Sounds. As I have done already with this story, is having the sound of crackling fire in the background :)
There will be a sound effects version of this released in the future...
Agree!!!!!!! Needs some subtle background noise like rain/storm or some fireplace action. Voice is great.
I had listened to Creepypasta when I was going to bed. It had worked for awhile. I'd listen to an actual story, and by the end or half I'd be asleep. But there would be added noises, music that would make it difficult. And I don't want to listen to an audiobook because then I would want to follow the story and stay awake.
This is the perfect medium. Parsed, calm, but enough to induce that meditative state that allows one to drift and fall asleep. I'm going to recommend you. Please keep up the work.

Works for me every night. Thanks Dan 👍😊
Thank you for all the hard work you put into these!
I'm loving this sleep story especially about the little gerbil!!!😃
Love gerbils thanks much 😘
Here is a gerbil story if you haven't already checked it out... ua-cam.com/video/fZSIC3FCKBc/v-deo.html
I listen to this story about 3 times a month. Never have heard the end. Maybe some day...
Put this on last night and literally fell asleep in the first 3 minutes. The pauses in the reading knock me out.
He actually is making the story up during a livestream, not reading a story written. Even more impressive!
I love this. I could just picture the scene but I didn't get to the end as I fell asleep. Result! Will listen again tonight.
Love your voice ! So soothing ! ♡♡😘
Dan has been a life saver the past year on the sleepless nights. It’s like magic! So thankful!
So many beautiful and nostalgically dreamy ideas for videos. I don't know how you come up with it and how you do it. 💓
I love his voice

Wait, the gerbil goes inside the house?
Thank you. For me, it’s better to listen to someone speaking in a normal, faster rate, but I can see how it would work for people who don’t really have issues falling asleep. It’s a nice effort.
It also works for people who do have trouble falling asleep for hours. You just need to find the one that works for you.

Thank you, I can't wait to listen to this story when I get off work. I work overnights at a hospital and your stories are the perfect thing to help me get to sleep (which is usually hard because it's daytime when I'm trying to sleep). I love your stories! 💖
Good clip!
I love this
Dan your voice and stories are wonderful. Can’t wait to hear more.
Wow, can I just fall asleep to your voice and dream about you?
Keep them coming
I post a new sleep meditation every Tuesday evening at 11pm UK time
This really helps me sleep and when I have bad days thank you
Im so mad! I wanna hear the full story but fall asleep after 2 minutes everytime! Use it every night
Just read some comments, sure a lot of this is just being facetious, please change nothing, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, this definitely ain’t broke!!!
Thanks, I knocked out.
This is pure magic
Thank you Dan. I love your longer sleep stories. Calms me down alot 💕
These need to be recorded louder so that we have to turn our volume down, otherwise, when the ads interrupt, it jolts me awake with a much higher volume.
I don't put ads in my meditations only at the beginnings so you shouldn't have that problem. I can't record them louder or else they will be clipping. They are already peaking at -3dB during recording and in the final video so on my computer for example they are very loud even with my volume turned right down. It is the nature of advertising that ads are made to play louder than what they are playing in, so if I turned up the meditations volume more the ads would still be played louder, you would still have the same problem you would just be using an even lower volume setting to get the same loudness.
It is recommended that videos peak between -12dB and -6dB so I already make my videos too loud, this is so that the stories are then slightly louder than the introduction as there is a lot more vocal range in my stories so I want the listener to be able to hear it fine even if they aren't using headphones regardless of what I am saying in the meditation.
@@DanJonesHypnosis I guess UA-cam gets to decide when to put in ads, then, since my phone goes to ads every few minutes. Do you have downloadable options?
In theory creators get to decide where ads go. When we upload a video it says to Rick where ads will show. I always tick for ads to show before the video and don't tick to allow midroll ads or ads after my stories. UA-cam recently announced on their own channel that they are putting ads in the middle of videos without the creators permission to test whether it will make more money. I have had over a year of fighting UA-cam on this as this was happening and so I thought it was a glitch and UA-cam denied it was happening until a month or two ago when they announced they have been doing this, so midroll ads are off, but until UA-cam finishes it's stupid test where creators get no choice to stop the midroll ads there is a risk of them showing. Every few months I've been reminding subscribers to check and if it looks like ads will show then refresh, if it still looks like ads will show then watch a different video for now. UA-cam said one they have finished testing then midroll ads will likely be turned on all videos by default so creators will have to go through all their back catalogue of videos turning them off if they don't want them on. Currently they aren't showing as on yet so I can't go through and turn them off.
I recommend that people use my sleep stories podcast where you don't get ads or my UA-cam introduction just the MP3 of the stories which you can put in playlists etc. A number of my tracks are also available on things like Spotify, Amazon music, iTunes/Apple music, Google Play etc, and on numerous apps like Slumber and AudioJoy.
Dan Jones Hypnosis - Guided Sleep Meditations I think they are perfect the way they are, don’t change a thing Dan, and it saddens me that you have to defend yourself at all.
Keep the stories comng
your voice is very pleasant. 😄
First time listening. Looking forward to it. Thank you.
This worked wonders! Fell asleep in 20 minutes or less haven't been able to sleep well in weeks tysm have a wonderful day/night.
Thank you so much for this long one. Most of the time I hear about 3 sentences 😂 but occasionally a long one is much appreciated. Love your work
I listen to this every night, and I fall asleep so fast. Only like 10 mins in and I’m out. It’s always at the same spot too 😂😂
So goood
Thanks Dan for these bedtime stories for grownups. I’m currently having trouble sleeping your helping me sooooo much. Best wishes from Cardiff
Really needed this thanks
Love the spaces between your words💙😂
Getting right into the story/meditation instead of begging for subs/likes is better for this style of video. I tend to sub channels that do that.
That being said..
You have a nice voice and the stories are great. I also like the dark theme. I tend to turn my phone over while listening and the dark helps block visual stimuli.
UA-cam actively tells creators to do a brief call to action for likes, subscribes and comments etc on their videos because of the very significant difference it makes. Before I did this my videos would get almost no engagement and each video generated very few subscribers. On adding this my subscribers per video went from about 2-4 new subscribers across the first month of a video being live to this increasing straightaway to about 10-20 new subscribers across the first month of a video being live and likes went from 1-2 likes a month on a video to over a dozen likes on a video. It makes an enormous difference just having that 25 second introduction explaining what I do on my channel and reminding people they can like and subscribe etc. There is no begging, just reminding people because the research shows most people don't take action without a call to action to prompt and remind them.
I frequently get comments from people saying that they had watched one of my videos thinking they will subscribe if it works but then falling asleep and forgetting and then in trying another video and seeing the prompt, remembering to do that and then subscribing.
@@DanJonesHypnosis that's funny. My reply to you was deleted I guess.
I said I get it, but it really makes it less appealing.
Have you ever listened to Michael Sealy? Jason Stephenson? Joe T? I can't remember every other video I've listened to for bedtime, but I don't recall any of them ever asking for subs, just your personal safety (don't drive etc while listening) . And they are very popular. And I also subscribed to them because their content speaks for itself. I can start relaxing immediately. No thoughts about anything but the guidance into sleep. Waking up the video is still first thing I see when I open my phone, and feeling well rested is what made me subscribe.
Look all I mean is, you have a good thing going. I don't think the request adds to it. I'm not trying to be rude. It's just not a bedtime type of thing. I relax more quickly with less of that type of jabber. I only wanted to say something because I thought it would improve upon your video. I don't offer my thoughts to people unless I think they are worth my time. Your very long response seemed like you were agitated with my words, and if I hurt your feelings I apologize. I intended it to be feedback, that's all.
And one more thing. I found you because I searched the subject as an alternative to meditation and hypnosis. I tend to look for the more obscure, and share what I find with others. Word of mouth is good too.
My 1st thought was ...OMG Simon Cowell & Bob Ross had a son! 🤣 I absolutely love these stories!
That's awesome and hilarious.
I agree 💯
