  • The Science of Sleep and Dreams | Documentary Story for Sleep
    Jun 2 2024

    In this episode, I take you on a new exploration journey, to discover what science can tell us about sleep and dreams: What happens when we sleep? What are the phases of sleep and the difference between quiescent sleep and paradoxical/REM sleep? Why do we need it? What are intermediary states of consciousness like sleepwalking or lucid dreaming? I also tell you about the origins of dreams, their possible functions, and how neurobiology, psychoanalysis, psychology, religion, or literature approached them.

  • The World's Most Famous Diamonds | Story for Deep Sleep
    May 26 2024

    Tonight, on our way to sleep, we explore stories related to famous diamonds. These include the Hope Diamond and its supposed curse, the story of the exceptionally big Cullinan Diamond, from which the famous Star of Africa comes, and a dive into the mysteries of the Versailles court in pre-revolutionary France with the Affair of the Diamond Necklace (a scandal surrounding a magnificent necklace and Queen Marie-Antoinette). So get cozy, and prepare for a good night's sleep.

  • Ancient Greek Mythology: Trojan War, Odyssey, Pandora and More Myths | Extended Sleepy Story
    May 22 2024

    In this soft-spoken bedtime story, I tell you about various Greek myths. This is a compilation episode, in which I've combined multiple prior episodes into one long-play episode to help you fall asleep. These are the Greek myths we will discover tonight.

    - The Trojan War, as told in Homer's Iliad and other sources;

    - The Odyssey, also mainly based on Homer's work;

    - Pandora and her jar (or box), which according to Hesiod contained countless plagues that she let escape, providing a backstory for the existence of suffering in human life;

    - The tragedy of the Danaïdes and Sisyphus, who were sentenced to an eternity of useless work;

    - Icarus, the young man who flew too close to the sun and fell.
