Fall asleep fast with the snowy bedtime story. You are listening to "Winter Soirée at the Castle," a sleep story for grown-ups narrated by a soothing female voice. Kind people of the world gather for an annual winter soirée at a 15th-Century castle nestled within the Carpathian Mountains and atop a frozen river. After a costumer fits you in elegant wintry attire you enjoy an afternoon of leisure in your palace suite. Feeling the best you ever have, you attend the winter ball, full of surprises that cater to your whims and fancies. You return to your suite, floating on a cloud of hope and jubilance, and fall asleep to the sounds of a crackling fire as a snowstorm turns the landscape into a winter wonderland. It's time to dream away.

Michelle's Sanctuary is a place where you may enjoy high quality SLEEP STORIES GUIDED SLEEP MEDITATIONS completely FREE with a focus on mental vacations, sleep hypnosis, manifestations, and using your imagination to enjoy relaxing adventures before bedtime. Grown ups deserve bedtime stories too!  This channel was started with the intention of helping others find balance, a good night's rest, and stay aligned with aspirations and goals in life. We are all part of this human existence together and the more than we become mindful individuals, the better we make this world and our personal experiences in this world.  Having firsthand experience with anxiety, insomnia, and a strong desire to connect with my higher self and live my best life, I have tailored these recordings in ways that I have personally found helpful.   This channel is not a replacement for consultations with a doctor or medical professional but can help you find more balance and a healing night's sleep. I always welcome comments, feedback & suggestions.
