Get Sleepy: Sleep Meditation and Stories
Your brain doesn't need to figure it all out tonight. It needs somewhere quiet to wander.
Who it's for
Each episode starts with a short relaxation or meditation and then moves into a slow, low-stakes story about calm places, cozy villages or quiet travels.
Feelings it meets
What it is
Get Sleepy is a sleep podcast from Slumber Studios, running since 2019 and hosted by voice actor Thomas (Tom) Jones with other narrators on some episodes. Episodes pair sleep meditations with slow, relaxing bedtime stories, such as gentle slice-of-life scenes, calm travel and nature pieces, and retold fairy tales. Some episodes are meditation-only, such as a body scan for sleep.
Where to find it
