Michelle, almost as if it was part of your story: a week ago, I sat down on my bed ready for another uncertain night and, as if guided by Magick, I opened RUclips and typed in "Sleep Stories" into the search option. This is how we met. I am amazed by your silky voice, the conciseness of your stories, vocabulary, and descriptions. But, it is the subjects of your stories which keep me coming back night after night. I have found Magick of this sort only once in my life and now I have it at my fingertips, nightly. Thank you so much, Michelle!!!
A witch goes shopping rustic autumn village, shops for sleepy herbs, prepares (asmr) her creation, dozes off to sleep...magical dreams. Sigh, sorry just brainstorming. ♥️
Couldn't get by without the Witches I have in my life, whether they be Natural Healers, Energy Healers or other. Their links with Spirituality lift me & help me in so many ways. Thankyou so much for bringing this series out. I appreciate it 💜🙌
I rarely finish a story - so having my favourite of your series all in one place is fantastic. My insomnia when I have to go to bed early is difficult, but these stories are worth listening to, and your voice is so soothing. Thank you
I just listened to the winter which is cottage. I forgot to do something cuz I fell asleep and I'm telling you now that was my favorite. It was beautiful and it just takes me to a place in my heart. It's so healing Michelle. You're a very important part of my life. Thank you so much
I have been listening to your stories for weeks now. Thank you for the comfort, reassurance, and entertainment. No matter what mood I am in at bedtime, I can count on this channel for an imaginative escape. 💛💛💛🥰🥰🥰
Haven't even heard it yet but still liked it because the title itself sounds so interesting. Thankyou for making falling asleep easier. I'm very excited to listen to this.
This was just what i needed. You voice is so relaxing and your words are perfectly descriptive. I have to admit i was a bit nervous to meet the witches. But they are lovely ❤I hope to listen to much more. Im definitely sharing this!
Thank you-- well they were inspired by some very beautiful souls in my life and I love to think there are witches among us, crafting magic through kindness and empathy. Sweet dreams!
Thank you Michelle ❤️ I love this story. I was asleep after the first 20 minutes. It's such a beautiful and magical story. You never disappoint us with your amazing work. 😊😊😊❤️❤️❤️
Thank you-- I am sorry for not seeing this sooner and I am so happy you enjoyed this one. I wanted to make it as magical as I could. Wishing you all the best in 2021! 💜
Wow, this was a very original unexpected story! This one was actually quite a departure from your normal style, and I liked the variety! It seemed much more intimate and personal in terms of the character interactions. The enchantress in the Moon, talking directly to you. The tiny faeries interacting with you in a very personal way. I also loved the part about following the small fox, it was a brilliant story device, pulling us in deeper into the fantasy world. Up to now I have listened to this on 4 nights and I still can't make it past the part of entering the witches' cottage! Maybe I should listen in the daytime to find out what actually happens with the witches, lol. Thank you again Michelle for another beautifully executed sleep story! I loved it!
I hope (although understand these have a purpose of getting you to sleep fast) that you make it to the witches. I am trying to experiment more with the channel. I have been pushed to grow as a writer with new partnerships this year and since this year is quite a “real” experience let’s delve into fantasy when we can. 💜
@@MichellesSanctuary After many nights with this story, I finally did make it to the part with the witches. And I have to say it was both deep and absolutely brilliant! I think you really got into our underlying emotions here, beautifully working into self-acceptance. The part about how you still have time to live the life you dreamed really caught me unexpectedly, and was like getting smacked with a heavy pillow (lol)! This is deep and comforting stuff. I must have fallen asleep after that, but I am listening again now in the daytime, and loved the whole part about going up the stairs and falling asleep in that little nook. It's like resting at the end of a long journey. The way you brought it back full circle to the enchantress in The Moon was really clever. I have to say that out of all your sleep stories that I've heard, this one at the Train Journey Through Time are my 2 favourites so far. Thank you for all your excellent work. You are improving so many people's lives, and I am looking forward to more!
I dont normally comment on anything. Just wanted to say thank you. Your imagination and storytelling is wonderful and has been helping me get some much needed peaceful rest. You have the most beautiful soothing voice Michelle. Thank you again
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment-- I really appreciate and it helps me so much to read these words as I keep creating. Wishing you many night of peaceful sleep to come!
Your forest sounds the ideal place for some escapism, but when you mention three witches my mind did briefly turn to thoughts of “Macbeth!” Thanks Michelle, I’m drifting away to your beautiful forest glade.
❤ “THANK YOU” ! 🌷♥️🌷 MANY BLESSINGS COME TO YOU IN LOVE AND INSPIRATIONS GUIDING YOU THROUGH LIFE AND ETERNITY FILLING YOUR HEART WITH GREAT LOVE AND PEACE AS YOU ARE SURROUNDED BY ANGELS OF LOVE AND PEACE KNOWING YOU ARE HEALED SAVED AND PROTECTED FOREVER AMEN. I SEND YOU ALL GOOD ENERGIES FREQUENCIES AND VIBRATIONS. WE MUST ALWAYS STAY TOGETHER LOVING AND HELPING EACH OTHER FOR THE GREATER GOOD OF ALL THE UNIVERSE AND HUMANITY AND ALL THE ANIMALS BLESSING EACH OTHER WITH OUR GIFTS BECAUSE LIFE NEVER ENDS, WE LIVE FOREVER BECAUSE OUR IMMORTAL LIVES LIVE FOREVER IN LOVE AND LIGHT THAT IS MAGICAL AND ETERNAL. 🌹🙌🌹
If you ever do a story with a cat, I have a special request! Can the cats name be Basil? That’s our cats name. We’ve been subscribed for a long time. We adore your channel! Thank you for all you do!🙏🏼♥️✨🌙
A.most Delightful video ! Thank you, so much. Highly recommended: book by Elizabeth Goudge 'the white witch'. The descriptions of the scenes in the book & deep insights of the characters will stick with you many years afterwards. A sweet & very poignant story of many characters woven together with extraordinarily deep insightfullness by the author.
You are absolutely write but it just visually looked so God-awful, let's pretend it's merely the cottage of the oldest witch and the others are just visiting. Can we do that? 💜
I've been sleeping too this for the months now, and still haven't gotten past the fairies and the fox. Lol kinda disappointing; but it's proof it works for sleep haha😂
@@MichellesSanctuary its okay. I think it was more a lucid dream that went sideways...? I love all of your videos though. Chalet by the lake is my favorite! Anything with snow and cabins is wonderfully relaxing! Thank you for what you do!

I'm so glad you discovered this sanctuary, Scott! And I hope you continue to dream away and find enchantment as you drift to sleep.
Yes yes! More witchy and apothecary stuff!
Conjuring my inner witch. Sweet dreams! 💜
I second this! More please!

What a delightful story. It filled a hollow in my heart following the recent death of my sister. Thank you for this!

I listen to these with my almost 13 year old daughter and we both love them! Please do more witchy stories!!
Any other details you’d like me to include?
@@MichellesSanctuary Not really just spells&potions and witchy stuff would be cool!
Yes!! More fairytales and fantasy please. Lord of the rings is awesome too. Middle earth and the shire. You're great!
Thank you, Selina- there will be more fantasy to come. We can all use a fantastical escape this year. Sweet dreams! 💜
I am absolutely over the moon excited to fall asleep to this tonight! Thank you so much michelle!
What appropriate wording-- since the journey in this story will take you over the moon (literally!). Sweet dreams, Nicole! 💜
Love love love love. This is by far my favorite in a long time.
Thank you, Arlene-- so happy you have enjoyed it. And wishing you a magical 2021! 💜
So amazing. I love it. I am so excited for more
Magical indeed ❤

I just listened to the winter which is cottage. I forgot to do something cuz I fell asleep and I'm telling you now that was my favorite. It was beautiful and it just takes me to a place in my heart. It's so healing Michelle. You're a very important part of my life. Thank you so much

I’ve never been so excited to go to bed. I told my husband “The Witch Cottage?!.I’m going to bed early tonight!” 😂
Hahahaha
Thank you Michelle ❤️ I love this story. I was asleep after the first 20 minutes. It's such a beautiful and magical story. You never disappoint us with your amazing work. 😊😊😊❤️❤️❤️

Haha! I thought it may conjure thoughts of Hocus Pocus. Amazing. These witches are quite kind though. Sweet dreams! 💜
I thought of the wyde sisters terry prachett as they are kind .
THANK YOU MICHELLE🎃👻😍👍 THIS IS SO SOOTHING HEALING AND FUN. YOUR VOICE IS SO LOVELY DEAR. HAPPY THANKSGIVING FRIENDSHIP💕🙏😘
So happy you enjoyed this one-- it's one of my favourites. Perhaps I feel I am a sort of good witch from time to time! 💜
No idea what the story was about, I must have fallen asleep right away. I remember something about a silver moon, that's all. 😄
I'm so glad this helped you fall asleep! Perhaps you will make it further along with the next listen. Sweet dreams!
Cha Ching! What a delightfully spooky (but homie) treat for my subconscious to feast on! 🧝🏻♀️🧙🏻♀️🧙🏻🎃👻
❤️❤️❤️
Michelle u never disappoint! Thank u for a little Halloween cheer!
It’s my pleasure- and my favourite holiday so I hope you enjoy!

Hope you continue to dream away! Thank you.
Strange how you just listen and imagine then you listen another time and the pictures are nothing like you've imagined
How amazing that is- sometimes that happens to me with novels as well. I’m going to soon write an update to this story. 💜

Witches’, I think, because it’s both plural and possessive.
You are absolutely write but it just visually looked so God-awful, let's pretend it's merely the cottage of the oldest witch and the others are just visiting. Can we do that? 💜
@@MichellesSanctuary Right.
♥️😍🥰

I'm glad it's working! Writing a new one soon for the series!
I'm excited!
... but I haven't finnished this one, so I can't move on! 😂😂😂
This worked! I didn't make it all the way through!
I'm so glad it helped! I am releasing a new witches' cottage story this Sunday!
I'm to tired to comment something nice that I want to say about this 😊. Good night dear. Mwuah! 💤
I had a nightmare with this one 😞
Hmm… so sorry to hear this. I do have a meditation for nightmare relief. 💜

If you didn’t write this I wouldn’t have even realized so many like! Let’s hope 555 brings you magic and luck. 💜
Beautiful ❤️ it made me so happy 🦋
Yay! I am continuing the series and will be writing a summer version soon!
