just want to say "thank you" for this - I have insomnia, anxiety issues, PTSD, severe depression & often find myself up at 4 or 5am desperately wanting to go to sleep & can't. I gave this a try - turned off all lights, starting listening, and was asleep less than 10 minutes in - woke up to the screen being black with the soft background tones & sounds, turned off the laptop & went right back to sleep. appreciate it! the only problem is I have no idea what happened in the story, so now I'm gonna have to re-listen, lol
@@kathypullis816I don't find movie stressful but I do find them Interesting and if I hear something going on I have to open my eyes to find out what. But with someone reading a book I have to imagine the "movie" and that is a really nice Segway Into the dream world for me especially when listening to a sci-fi or fantastic fantasy they are already dream esqe
Another video where i probably won't hear the story end. Because these always put me to sleep in minutes. And Lord of the rings is my all time favourite world ever. I just loooove it with all my heart.
In the hush of night, your bedtime stories become a refuge for weary souls. As we drift into the realm of dreams, may the magic woven into your words transport us to lands of whimsy and delight. Sleep well, dear storyteller, knowing your tales have kindled a flame of imagination in our hearts. Goodnight to all who listen, may your dreams be as wondrous as the stories that have lulled you to sleep. 🌃🌃🌃
Man did you Write This Yourself? For an original story this is extremely good next to Tolkiens writing, feels so perfectly set in the universe. This is so good. My god
@@GoodKnightSleep after hearing the emerald elf tale i went to search for his lore all over, looking for a wiki or something from the Tolkien universe, its that believable
Tonight was my first time hearing this. I dozed off pretty quick which was amazing. But I started to wake up about 2 and a half hours in. I wear ear buds at night so it doesn't bother my husband..I was laying there half asleep..I hear papers moving...i get real still, listen harder..hear it again...jump up out of bed looking around..hahah I forgot I had my earbuds in and thought someone was shuffling through paperwork on my desk...LOLOL love this. ❤❤❤
Love this so much thank you !!🌹 LotR is my favorite story of all time and this threw me right back. Would love to hear more middle earth or star wars content ✨️🫶🏽
Have a big job Interview tomorrow and was feeling anxious so I put this story on. Love it. I feel so much more relaxed listening to your voice and story. Thank you so much!!
This is amazing man, i was doing shrooms with a homie, kinda felt anxious throughout, but after i put this on and dimmed the light, i got really calm and peaceful. Thank you. Kind of saved me from a bad trip
Your tone, cadence, rythm, just perfect! I love your Scottish Mythology. Fairy Tales and your Irish tales. It truly pulls at my heartstrings. This story is also now one of my favourites.
I'm so happy I've found your channel! With my ADD, your stories help me to calm down and focus at work. I pop headphones in and time slips away while I'm working. I appreciate your care and attention to these stories 💚
For a while I was putting toddlers down at naptime (I babysit) with the 2 hour ambient shire theme... Decided to try this because the 2 year old who has a nonverbal autistic older sister needs more and better exposure to language whenever he can get it... as well as exposure to rich sories full of truth and beauty. Even if he only listens for about 10 minutes before he's out, I think this will do the trick VERY nicely. Only problem is now I want to go in his room and listen with him... I am a little jealous.
I never get very far into these stories, but I always appreciate them! If for some reason you're short on ideas for more Tolkien ideas, I think a wizard story would be an interesting direction to go! Then again, I doubt I'd be awake long enough to get far into it! Your voice is a balm, thank you for sharing it.
This one connects directly to one I saw yesterday. I understand all of this completely. All of it.. my greatest pleasure is to make people smile.. however I can.. a compliment..a smile Something so simple can change not only the look in their eyes but cause a ripple..a positive ripple that spreads outward. Across time and space.. dimensions too
Just hit play and after reading the comments hit subscribe straight away.. settling in for a good listen and sleep. Nice one my friend. Best comments section!
Very nice. Completely down for any Tolkien story. It would be delightful if you could delv into some other adventure fantasy with your nice sleepy voice 😴🙏
Ngl the amount of disdain I had browsing thru all the hobbit & LOTR adjacent titles on this channel, initially, is astounding! Lol 😂 Yet, compared to now as a devoted subscriber who's grown to love LOTR (hobbit/dwarf/elf) lore thanks to all the conditional exposure throughout the channel! Lol 😂 Never got into LOTR movies but as an avid bookworm, l love ALL folklore & fantasy genres, as I've always been obsessed w vampires (horror fantasy) and magic (trad fantasy) as my favorites. I'd like to think my natural affinity with the fantasy genre & hobbit/dwarf/elf stories were just waiting to be married together like this so I could have this epiphany!! Now I'm making up for lost time thanks to you and I am eternally grateful for your sublime art craft turning me into a believer/fan! Thank you so much, and I speak for every one of your subs when I say we appreciate you sharing content with us. It's an honor truly, as I don't typically write mini novellas in comment sections but you're that great! Lol 😂 🪄 Also, would like request some mermaid or siren stories pls that's not Atlantis lol Doubt you'll even see this but gotta try, as I emailed weeks back too! 😂❤
Very good I just wish the stories were longer.. if you can’t think of more things to say to make the story longer is it least possible to put your story on a loop throughout?
Hobbit folklore so elaborated appropriated Welsh Folklore adapted by Tolkien. Just like how Hollywood sensationalised and manipulates stories of Merlyn etc but Wales the origin of most of Arthurian legend rarely gets a mention.
I love these stories but can't have the music playing for six hours after. I know some viewers might like that, but It'd be great to just have the story!
Hey there! I understand but people like to fall asleep to these and they get woken up by an ad at the end so that’s why the ambience is there. Over on my Patreon I upload just the stories
Cough up some coins then if don't like it, as the audio only* is on Patreon & Spotify if take time read the channels "About" description for future reference. Creators typically include a link-tree as well, which contains all the different links to their different platforms. Trust me, the true ASMR subs appreciate the music & limited/skippable ads unlike other channels. We understand importance of making ad revenue, but workarounds like this are beyond appreciated by subscribers, and especially* the ASMR listeners! Lol ❤
I tried to give this a chance but the narration is not the best. It seems like you're sitting too close to the microphone. I don't want some dude whispering in my ear. I really want to hear the story, but you need to stand back from the microphone at a normal distance. Thank you
I could do without the whispering narrator. Hobbits are a ROBUST people - and this narrator sounds like he's talking to children he wants to send to sleep. Could barely manage the intro, and had to leave. Sorry . . .
I follow Sam Harris and usually feel his subjects are well researched. However has Sam ever spoken of the horror of the many incidents of police shootings of black men and black women. I agree with the student that we need to be more aware of conditions in the US. What if Sam had a black son? How would he teach his son to act if he is pulled over by the police?
Research : Albino hunting in Africa. It has been going on since the early 1900s. We are the one collective humankind species and unconditional love for Blacks should have begun in Africa yes? Don't ruin loving channels with garbage. We are the human species doing evil and good to each other so just be the force of good and pray for the evil to end. Racism doesn't cure racism only unconditional love can.
