I had schizophrenia many years ago as well, with 3 kinds of meds and hospitalization. Supposedly there is no cure. This was in the 90’s. I was in college at the time. I managed to graduate ( trying to study hearing voices was hard) and became a school teacher for 23 years. Finally the voices stopped, with the help of Jesus Christ, and I have also raised a family and had/ have horses and showed them in small shows for many years. SO never give up and you will be healed! Stephen’s stories are a Godsend for me , recently discovered, because my daughter passed recently and I’m trying to raise her 13 year old son who is sick a lot by myself, and this has enabled me to sleep at night. Love and blessings to you and Stephen from California!❤❤❤
I have suffered from chronic insomnia for years. I have had to take sleep meds for a long time and have recently stopped using them for various reasons. I am 3 months clear of them now. But the insomnia came back with a vengeance. I’ve tried all sorts of sleep videos, sounds, meditations, nothing has worked until I discovered you and your channel. You are the only one capable of putting me to sleep within minutes. What marvelous sorcery is this? I love your voice and your energy. It is so calming and reassuring and peace inducing. Sadly I can’t tell you which story I love the most because I have never been able to stay awake to hear a single one through to the end. Your gift has helped me night after night. I am so grateful. Please don’t stop. I have downloaded and saved some for those times when we have no WiFi. Thank you Stephen from South Africa with love. I would stay awake to hear a story about a little African village and the warm, kind people there and the wonderful magical mysteries of the African countryside.
Loved your cosmic Cafe. You always make everything so fascinating and I look forward to your stories every night. You could tell a story about mopping the floor, and I would be mesmerized. Great job as always 👏
Thank you for making these! As someone who struggles with sleep these have been a God send. The immersive space ones are my favorite! One where we visit different constellations or star fields would be fun! The stars are so comforting, a constant companion through life, always there. I like to remember that we are made of the same stuff and so in a way all people are bretheren to the stars, that thought is comforting. Thank you again, you do amazing work. May the stars bring you as much comfort as they've brought me 💖
This one was so good. I woke up the other morning at 3AM, so I went to the other room and listened to this one in its entirety. I never hear the entire story for obvious reasons. I’m going back this morning to click the like button on all the ones I’ve fallen asleep to. Thank you so much for these stories.
I found your channel by sheer luck and you have been a god send for my insomnia. I rarely hear all the story but that’s ok. Your voice and stories are what my racing mind needed. Thank you! I tell everyone I know that has trouble sleeping about you.
This is the best! I'd love a story where we fly to a spa in Jupyters upper atmosphere, where we'll look up through the atmosphere which looks like the surface of a soap bubble!🙏🏻
Oh my gosh! I cannot wait to listen to this tonight! I was going to request something similar to this - a little world in space - like the Jetsons! I'm so excited to listen to this tonight when I go to sleep - thank you!!!!
Wonderful story! Can not wait for the next cosmic themed one! You could do a cosmic cruise/train/ spaceship story with a private sleeping pod that has a view on the most beautiful (changing) parts of the universe.
Stephen, this video was actually phenomenal. To be honest, I was blown away by the creativity you put into it! This video was extraordinarily amazing.❤ It was so relaxing, but so entertaining that I couldn't help but stay awake! But thats not a bad thing at all, because I think I'll add this video to my playlist of morning stories lol
Love listening to your stories! Im putting sll of your space stories into a playlist so i can listen longer! I would love to hesr one where you visit a plsnet to see an old freind and go on a nice walk with them and just see the planet! Maybe a short ship ride as well?! Thank you for reading!
I‘m so excited for the story tonight! Question: How many takes do you have to do to read it without any mistakes or pronounciation mistakes? It had me thinking lately how difficult it would be 😂 (especially for me, not a native english speaker)
I think the video is cut into different parts. The parts where he messes up are probably just edited out lol. But I'm not sure what he does, though... I think that's what happen. (:
I'm very sleep deprived and need to get back to sleep before I get up at 5:30am. It's 12:30am, we've got this Stephen, let's go 😅 wish me luck, everyone. 🍀
I appreciate the sheer amount of stories you've made...though I never remember a lick 😂 I barely make it through the relaxation portion each night. I hear your voice and my brain is like "this guy? Must be sleepy time"
First of all, Thank you so much. I didn’t realise how nice it is to be read to sleep. So relaxing. Second you have the most calming voice it’s absolutely lovely so thank you for sharing your amazing gift for story telling with us. Third I had an idea for a topic that you could base a story on…. A trip to the lost city of Atlantis. It’s merely a suggestion but if you haven’t already made a story about it I think it would be lovely to hear one. Some more Celtic mythology would be lovely too, as well as Greek mythology, Eastern mythology and Egyptian mythology too. I am somewhat of a lover of the ancient histories and especially their myths and legends. I was also thinking about more stories with dragons. My absolute love is dragons, but not stories of their defeat or being slain, I would love a story about each of the elemental dragon rulers. Fafnir (fire) Grael (earth) Naelon (water) and Sairyss (air). Again just a suggestion. Anyway thank you again.
As it takes a long time for me to fall asleep can I have longer stories please I love your stories and the background music and yes another one maybe 3 and put them all together in one ❤
It’s exciting to see the notification just before my bed time once again. Will we get a story about Valentine’s Day? Looking forward for the next story!
I can't believe I just asked you about a space type story yesterday or maybe day before. Great minds think alike. Ha ha. You have a great mind, can't wait to hear it. Think about Pygmalion and Galatea. Also thinking about the great love letters through time. Valentines day stuff. But I am just now getting caught up with the Hope story. Love it. Her life is very much like mine. Thank you for your countdowns. Can barely make it through that. I go to bed at 8.30 just to listen to your stories. ❤
Thank you Stephen for doing a cosmic story. YES! Please do more. I love space exploration it’s very soothing to me. I also love cosmic sounds. Your stories help me to fall asleep every night. I look forward to your new ones. And I like your video intros too. Especially with Timmy. I’d love to see Rebecca in one. ❤❤❤
I cannot wait to listen to one of your stories tonight, Stephen. I am filled with worry because my mom is miserable with coughing. I cried for a few minutes. I am thankful that my dad is better after he got a cold days ago, but I pray my mom recovers soon. Right now I have a mug of warm chamomile tea to calm my fears. And when I listen to a bedtime story, I should feel better.
I hope both your parents are fighting fit very soon. My mum is also poorly with a bad cough & chest infection. Camomile tea is drink to try to calm myself as well. If you have any Lavender essential oil to hand, I find a few drops on my feet helps, or in a bath. Best wishes to you & your family ❤️
Oh now. This is going to be completely me. I willingly immerse myself into otherworldliness. Edit: And yes please Stephen. As many trips to Cosmic cafes around the galaxy as possible, or anywhere in space! I love!
I get tired before the story ends. I would love the Invitation was addressed to My husband and me. I think the pair of is deverse it would be a beautiful ❤️ valentine gift for us going back to the story nighty nighty 🎉
Im back again i felt asleep so fast last night!!! I love the space stories please please PLEASE TAKE ME AWAY TO SPACE MORE!!! thnx for all you do for us Have a great rest Greetings from the Netherlands
I am so excited for this!!!!! Thank you for posting another space story Stephen!! Your night flight story and the other space one are the two stories that I’ve listened to the most on your channel. I LOVE them so much and I can’t wait to play this one as soon as I’ve posted this comment. I just know it’ll have me relaxed and sleeping in minutes! Gnight all 🫡 ❤❤
I would love to hear the tale of the meeting of Beren and Lúthien, it is a story that takes place in Middle earth, and though their story is long and grim, their first meeting is very beautiful as Beren (a human man) finds himself lost in the woods, exhausted from a long journey of heartache, there he sees Lúthien (an elf maiden) as she dances through the forest with her long dark hair flowing about her and her magic that heals all that is around her. When Beren sees her he falls in love with her and the magic of Lúthien heals Beren's aching feet and allows him to feel lighter. He then wants to spend the rest of his days dancing with her. She then quickly vanishes and Beren looks for her for a very long time, when he finally finds her again he calls out to her ‘Tinúviel’ (which means ‘nightingale’ in Elvish) and she notices him and also falls in love with him, then Beren takes her into his arms as he stares into her beautiful starry eyes. There's a whole song about it written by Tolkien, and I would just love to hear you make your own version of it.
I have recently noticed I have been waking up during your sleep sleep stories near the end when you have the music and some reason the music doesn't seem to put me back to sleep. Would it be possible to repeat the story for the people who wake up during the end of the episode.
Excited for this adventrous journey. 😀 Stories about space and the universe altogether is a topic I enjoy so much. 😊 So fascinating and amazing. This story was brilliant. Saturn 🪐is so beautiful. Visiting a cosmic cafè there is such a wonderful thought. 🧘🏽♀️ The flight 🚀 to the cosmic cafè alone is an adventure itself. 👩🏽🚀 Thank you for another peaceful night's dream. ♥️
Morning Stephen 🌼🍃🌸Fell last nite before we meet Captain cowboy 👍Listened again this morning What a Beautiful Relaxing way to wake as well as Sleep 👍Thanks Mate✌️💚😎🌺🌴🌈🌊☀️
I love these videos! I always fall asleep during the countdown but last night I at least made it onto the ship!! Please keep it up and bring back space!!!!!!!!!
I always feel so happy to see you posted a new video ! Me and my husband fall asleep to your voice every night . I was wondering if you could do a cherry blossom tree inspired one? Something magical? Thanks for the peace and calm you bring us 🙌🏼
I actually made it quite far into the story for once - we had landed on Saturn and you were describing the space ship cozy lobby! One of my favourite so far, but I’ll have to listen again.
Since my baby arrived a few months ago, you help me get to sleep after the constant wake ups. Thank you so much. This now extends to helping to manage my stress now that I am back to work 7 months later. Hope you and your family stay well.
I found your channel recently and listen to your videos every night! I love the stories. Do you plan to make some guided sleep meditation as well? I would be thrilled!
Last night gave this another listen and fell asleep quickly very soon after the relaxation part of the video. More this and liked the one with Hope too.
Hi Stephan! Thanks again we have been falling asleep to your voice for months and tonight my son asked me for the magic candy store however i dont believe youve written this story yet its kindof something i made up on our roadtrip to a small town with a candy store i called the magic candy shop! So it would be really fun to hear your take on a roadtrip to a magical candy store! ❤ blessing stephan thankyou
A Magical Night in The Candy Store of Sleep: Bedtime Story ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Hk8m62wT50M.html Here you go. Already done 😊 There’s no road trip but close enough 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I really enjoyed this one, Stephen. Would it be possible to request a story, please? In your floating bed story a while back, we visited a forest with fairys. Can we go back there one night? There's somthing just so magical about forests that are so comforting and healing. Thank you. 😊
