The Sleep With Me Podcast is very good. It helped my wife when she had a period of insomnia.

He has a number of tricks he uses from a monoto delivery, to meandering stories where the narrative constantly interrupts itself with. So you can’t really “follow along”.

There's a real craft to making something feel safe, low-stakes and impossible to get invested in

Woke up too early this morning and tried it, after Mafra public radio did not work for me. This worked great, and now that I am listening to it again it is quite hilarious that I just cannot follow what he is talking about

I don’t need it now but this was a godsend a few years ago.

Lifelong insomniac (racing thoughts, probably ADHD-related) and this podcast cured me.

To anyone who tries it, it's important to know upfront: there's nothing to "get." It's nonsense. It exhausts the brain without being interesting enough to keep it running.
