Why does choosing all day leave you feeling strangely tired? Tonight’s SleepWise story is a calm, science-backed journey into decision fatigue—how the brain evaluates effort vs. reward, how constant context switching adds invisible strain, and why “good enough” starts to feel more appealing at night. We’ll explore the brain’s control systems in gentle terms: attention as a spotlight, working memory as a limited notepad, stress chemistry that sharpens urgency, and sleep pressure that makes effort feel more expensive as the evening goes on. Set against a meditative night walk, we’ll also touch the modern sources of choice overload—streaming libraries, endless scrolling feeds, and branching menus inside food delivery apps. By the end, the city quiets, the questions fade, and your mind is given permission to stop deciding… and simply rest. ---- SleepWise, Sleep Stories, Bedtime Stories, Guided Sleep, Relaxation, Mindful Sleep, Calm Narration, Science for Sleep, ASMR Sleep, Deep Relaxation, Falling Asleep, Sleep Meditation, Guided Meditation, Sleep Podcast, Soothing Voice, Peaceful Storytelling, Night Routine, Sleep Aid, Mindfulness, Restful Night, Relaxing Audio, Gentle Storytelling, Sleep Channel, Meditation for Sleep, SleepWise Podcast, Sleep Narration, Calming Stories, Rest and Relaxation, Sleep Help, Tranquil Nights
