The Mermaid & the Moon
Ойын-сауық
Escape to an oceanside cottage and meet a mermaid in tonight’s magical bedtime story, accompanied by the sound of ocean waves.
In tonight’s story, you take a spontaneous getaway to a secluded beach in search of some much-needed relaxation. You find the remote location enchanting, and you enjoy being lulled to sleep each night to the sounds of waves outside the window. But as the moon waxes to full, the ocean’s music takes on a new quality, and you discover the source of its song: a mermaid. Face to face with a being out of legend, you learn of the mysterious connection between the mermaid and the moon.
Sleep & Sorcery is a folklore and fantasy-inspired sleep series. My name is Laurel, and I’ll be your guide on tonight’s fantastical journey. Sleep & Sorcery is one part bedtime story, one part guided meditation, and one part dreamy adventure. Listen to my voice for as long as it serves you, and when you’re ready, feel free to let go of the story and relax into sleep. If you’re still awake as the story comes to an end, I’ll guide you through a relaxing ocean breath meditation.

Stories like mine are best with headphones! For comfort and security when drifting off to sleep, SleepPhones are the best thing I've found. They won't fall out like earbuds, and they're not bulky or uncomfortable like most over-ear headphones.

What a story... ❤❤❤ 🧜♀️🧜♂️ Thankyou so much.... 🙌🙏
I love this thank you. Beautiful voice and stories 🐠
this story brought back lovely memories of a couple childhood trips to lakeside cabins i’d all but forgotten. cabins/cottages are definitely magical places!
One day maybe I’ll make it ask the way through one of these 😴 💖🧜🏻♀️
Well done Laurel!! The stories never gets old and good way to twist the moon in there considering that was the week of the eclipse.
ahhhhh mermaids are one of my *favourite* sleep story topics- perhaps even in my top 3, along with fairies + elves (the mischevious folklore kind)!- so i can now look forward to bedtime, instead of dreading it 😅 thank you so so much, it’s hard to put into words how much videos like these help me, but i’ve had terrible terrible sleep my entire life, and these make a world of difference to the anxiety i feel whilst lying there (and i especially needed this today- everything that could’ve gone wrong did lmao 😅) !! your narration in particular is always wonderful + calming, and the stories are written so well + yet so simple in a peaceful and reflective way, thank you again + i hope you’re well 💙🧜🏻♀️🐡🐟🐳⚓️🧜♂️ x

if you haven’t already, check out “fairies of the forest floor” and “the midnight carnival” if you like folksy sprite stories. “an audience with trolls” also comes to mind!

@@aloiivwizard thank you so much !! i’ve loved the first one, but i haven’t seen the other two so i’ll give them a listen 🥰🫶
Greetings Laural I have a fave seaside holiday spot too. Would not like being there alone mind,
A most lovely and intriguing story indeed🌟Thank you✨
Are the gemstone fish part of any myths? They seemed like such a specific, odd detail to not have context, especially for the gemstones being under their scales, part of their body.

I took some inspiration from myths and rites surrounding Atargatis, who was said to have sacred fish at her temples - often with ornamental jewels! 🙂
