Having trouble sleeping?  Join Yoga and meditation teacher Kathryn Nicolai for bedtime stories where nothing much happens to help you relax and sleep peacefully. The stories are a soft landing spot for your mind. Rather than letting your brain race through the same thoughts you’ve been chasing all day, we are taking a detour to a calm and comfy place. We tell the story twice and go a bit slower the second time.

You can find our book, "Nothing Much Happens," in over 20 languages. Request your local bookseller to shelve it: https://bit.ly/Nothing-Much-Happens

    A Block From Home - Revised (Encore)

    A Block From Home - Revised (Encore)

    Our story tonight is called A Block From Home, and it’s a story about the feeling of coming home after a long day and finding a quiet place to rest. It’s also about the feeling of being on your own time and having the space to do something or to do nothing at all.

    Slightly More Happens - More Marmalade & Crumb (& Birdie, Too!)

    Slightly More Happens - More Marmalade & Crumb (& Birdie, Too!)

    Our stories tonight continue on with the gentle adventures of Marmalade and Crumb…oh and Birdie too, mustn’t forget him. We’ll start with a long walk, plenty of sniffing and fresh air in Dog Walk. Then we’ll listen to the thunder while we’re cuddled up in bed, in Raining Cats and Dogs. Finally, we’ll put on the coffee and watch a movie from the couch while the animals snooze in Old Friends.

    Piano Lessons

    Piano Lessons

    Our story tonight is called Piano Lessons, and it’s a story about a well-loved upright and the boy who plays it. It’s also about a little cottage where ivy grows up the bricks, middle C, lesson books and metronomes, and finding the things that feel like they were always meant for you.

    We give to a different charity each week, and this week, we are giving to Save the Music Foundation. Helping kids, schools, and communities realize their full potential through the power of making music.

    In The Bakery (Encore)

    New Friends at Weathervane Farm

    New Friends at Weathervane Farm

    Our story tonight is called New Friends at Weathervane Farm, and it’s a story about a busy Spring morning at the sanctuary. It’s also about branches full of singing birds, fresh straw, and rubber boots, new babies born in the stalls of the barn and helping each other out along the way.

    We give to a different charity each week, and this week, we are giving to Agia Marina Donkey Rescue. There, no donkey will ever be turned away; each will be cared for and loved for the remainder of its life.

    The Front Door and The Back Door (Encore)

    The Front Door and The Back Door (Encore)

    Our story tonight is called The Front Door and the Back Door, and it’s a story about a bit of Spring Cleaning inside and outside the house. It’s also about butterflies drawn in chalk on the sidewalk, a message arriving at the just the right moment, and seedlings waiting for their chance to grow.

    So get cozy and ready to sleep.
