        ah, I have a hard time falling asleep when reading or listening to podcasts (or audiobooks). I know some people who fall asleep watching TV, and it boggles my mind 😄

        But I do find reading a book for an hour before bed (or even just sitting there doing nothing) gives my more intrusive thoughts a chance to come to the surface and run in circles for a bit and wear themselves out before I actually put my head on a pillow. If I focus and stay on tasks and don’t let my mind wander much before bed I find my mind-wandering as I try to fall asleep is sometimes more active or disruptive as a result.

            I don’t know why I’m shocked there is a podcast for falling asleep to, but that’s just amazing - thank you for sharing it 💜

            I’ll bet it’s fun to listen to when taking a relaxing bath, too 👀

              Ooooh that’s a great idea! Nice one thanks. It’s a good podcast it generally takes people a few goes to get into it but it rarely doesn’t work when you’re used to it
