Self-love is the deepest, most amazing love you may experience and it will bring you to the coziest of setting tonight. Thank you for being part of this wonderful journey with me!

This is my favourite sleep story. I've listened to it almost every night. There is just something that is so comforting about it, thank you so much Michelle
This story reminds me of the cottage our family had by the lake. How I miss spending the winter there, with temperatures reaching below - 20 degrees and the snow piling over 50 cm. Finland is indeed a beautiful place. Thank you for the story 💜
This was a cozy one. ❄️ 🏠 I enjoy the specificity of description to characters in your sleep stories. I feel like I have known people at the general store, and an animal familiar like the fox. I like the cozy & rustic chalet. I fell asleep almost right after entering. I like the addition of a fur baby companion. I took a nap on a lazy Sunday this Valentine’s Day. Thank you Michelle.❤️🙏🏼
That sounds beautiful-- it was all I could do to resist a nap today! I miss interacting with people and wanted to add a touch of that small town charm to this story.
Oh I can’t wait to be all cozy in my bed for this lovely story. Thanks so much for these Sunday stories, they help with my sleep so so much. It’s very relaxing. Great job I hope you never stop with these cozy stories.
Perfect to fall asleep to for the second snowy night in a row.. Bundle up and stay warm everyone if you are getting this storm! Wonderful job Michelle 💙💙
Recently found your channel Michelle and love it! Been listening to you every night. Especially love the cabin ones with snow/rain. I customized this to be in Colorado🌄💜 Thank you for doing this.
Hi Michelle, I'm very much looking forward to this video, I've been rather ill lately so not listened much, I'm bipolar and had a mini breakdown, I'm on meds for it it's just sometimes it takes over my whole life, I tend to take myself away from everyone, but I had to make myself get help this time, I'm getting back to being my old self again, and at my daughters and spending quality time with my granddaughter, so thank you Michelle, your really needed, much love. 💖💖💖
Sending you so much love, Lynda, and do whatever you must to take care of yourself! This year has been one of the most challenging for all of us, and the most important things are tending to our physical and mental health. Wishing you the sweetest and most cozy of dreams tonight!
Good for you for seeking help! I hope that being with your loved ones will be a balm to your soul. This has been a hard year as Michelle mentioned and just like on an airplane, you put your mask on first, we must do for ourselves and loved ones! It's not selfish to take care of ourselves, be kind and gentle to yourself and this too shall pass. Hugs & blessings sent your way. Remember, you got this!!
I can relate to this. Lately I’ve not been able enjoy my favorite sleep stories I have come to cherish because sleep paralysis with recurring nightmares has me afraid to go to sleep. Congratulations on taking control of your mental health. ❤️❤️🤗 Sending you a virtual hug 🫂
@@lindsayr6208 I was listening to dreamscapes the other day, you should check him out lynsey he's pretty good, he was talking about sleep paralysis, he said try not to get scared it's only your body and mind trying to sync whilst trying to wake up, i don't know if you lucid dream, but he did say try to lucid dream when this happens to you it should stop you panicking, hope you find this useful sweetie, let me know if it works, lots of hugs, Lynda 💖 💖 💖
Thank you so much Michelle, two nights running and I never got to my destination 😴😴 This is so magical, only seen Vermont in a film, so beautiful, much love 💕❄❄
Hi Michelle, I think this ties for my favorite of all! Thank you for the vivid, creative, and personal narratives you offer. I find that your meditations and stories lull me to sleep better than any other site. What a gift, and for that, I thank you!❤️
Never mind Vermont Michelle, this story could be trudging through the Texas snow! But never mind where the cozy chalet is situated, I’d always bring the love of my life; thank god she’s recovering well from covid; along with any furry friends. Snow all disappeared from England, back to rain, but your snow themed stories are always a treat for my imagination.
The snow keeps coming here! Glad to hear of her recovery! I have many friends who have been roughing it in Texas, having left New York for an easier winter! A slight thaw is coming for all of us soon... good thing since a trip upstate had my poor pup slipping on the ice. There were so many storms that the entire landscape had an inch of ice and my sister not being the greatest at clearing her sidewalks made the visit treacherous. Well I didn't give that ice a chance. I got on the snowbank and slid down in my sleeping bag sized coat towards her front door. She laughed-- but I told her if I started on by bum, there was no chance of FALLING on it.
Same! My fave kind of story! You are such a gift to us, Michelle - no one writes sleeps stories like you, and you have helped me so much with my insomnia. May God bless you in a special way, dear one.
you are the best!!😊no one comforts me like you do Michelle!!! ❤I love the stories with our beloved pet's 🐕 thank you my friend for what you do, you comfort me and give me peace☺☺🌹🌷🌼🌻🌻🌻sending love and light
I really liked this story! Have you ever considered doing a story where you rock a newborn to sleep? I realize it might not be everyones cup of tea, but i would love it!
That is a really interesting idea to incorporate! I know how calming that has been for me in real life with my niece-- at times I nearly fell asleep before her! 💜
The first time I listened to this one I fell asleep at the general store. I hope Ike and Martha don't mind my having a little snooze in one of the aisles. 😅 The second time I actually made it to the chalet, so warm and cozy. Thanks for this soothing sleep story!
Yay! I'm sure they don't. They are so good natured. And Ike was named for my grandfather-- who would encourage a nap anywhere you felt comfortable. Glad you made it to the chalet! Sweet dreams! 💜
This story has become one of my favorites, I love how you say what’s done is done to put the day behind us. Helps me to let go and escape into the beautiful feelings that arise with the story. Thank you
Thank you. I really enjoy the different themes in your videos. The problem is by the time I meditate late in the day I fall asleep at the beginning of the story and never find out how it ends.
I've always wanted to visit Vermont. I love these "virtual" vacations even though I dont always stay awake till the end ex: Scottish Castle. I would love some set in Ireland, Sweden, Norway and Greece to name a couple. 🥰 I've never have left North America and would live to travel but as time goes on I feel my window to travel is closing. Thank you for these guided meditations and escape from reality, they have been a life saver! Love, From the Pacific North West
Thank you so much for writing-- well, I've released a Greece since you wrote this comment. I have an Ireland one planned soon. I use this as my chance to explore the world as well, until it reopens for travel. There is so much beauty to be discovered! 💜
Love this one as well.💛🧡...i listened last night and fell asleep...so I'll listen again tonight🦉🦉 and try to stay awake to hear the end of this story....🤍❤🤍
Let me tell you. I have never heard any of your videos completely because you knock. Me. Out. You fill me with positive vibes and good feelings. I appreciate you. And thanks for telling me I'm magical 🙂
Thank you for taking time to write, Layne! I'm so glad that you are knocked out and in a positive way. You are magical! May you keep using your imagination for the best life and night of dreams!
I absolutely love your channel. I found it a couple of months ago and it has helped me sleep so many times. Do you take request? I understand that you write all these yourself and that's amazing! You have a truly beautiful and creative soul. Thank you for helping me find peace at night.
Thank you for taking the time to right and I am so glad you've been able to sleep! I absolutely take requests and keep an ever-growing list. What would you like to hear? 💜
I can’t thank you enough Michele. I was diagnosed with ms and due to covid my treatment is 17 months overdue. Your stories make me fall asleep every night. Your voice makes me feel so good. Could I suggest a story I’d love you to write. Calling it the girl with ms. You can use my name as that girl and story to encourage others with ms that they are not alone. And how a lovely walk before Bed is so good to their mind and may even motivate them to walk more.walking in your stories now makes me walk so much more, it has helped her make peace with ms. Sorry maybe I am asking for too much. But no one has ever made a lovely story about ms. It will give reassurance to all the people that would find peace in it. Please will you think about it. Did you know falling asleep when you have ms is so hard. Did you also know it’s a young persons illness? It would be so marvellous
I love this! Its been snowing here for days... Going to make some homemade soup, grilled cheese and rustic bread. Been needing a serrated knife! This was such a cozy story!! ✨💖✨
Hi Michelle, I really love your videos. They are the only thing that help me doze off so I want to thank you. I very rarely get to hear the whole thing 🙈 I was hoping you would do one about ireland 🤞 I'm from kilkenny, ireland but dingle in kerry is one of the most beautiful places you can imagine xx
Thank you for taking the time to write, Laura! I'm so happy you are getting to sleep! I absolutely will be doing a story on Ireland. It's been a locale on my list for some time. I will definitely bring us all to Dingle! 💜
Happy Valentine's Day! Here is my love letter for all of you, even if you find yourself in solitude, there are so many forms of love.

This one is my favorite. I’d love more small town snow stories
This is my favourite sleep story. I've listened to it almost every night. There is just something that is so comforting about it, thank you so much Michelle
Thank you-- that is exactly what I hoped to create with this. Sweet dreams! 💜
This story reminds me of the cottage our family had by the lake. How I miss spending the winter there, with temperatures reaching below - 20 degrees and the snow piling over 50 cm. Finland is indeed a beautiful place. Thank you for the story 💜
I do hope to visit-- I so often see the most beautiful homes for sale on an instagram account I follow. Sweet dreams! 💜

Thank you Michelle, all your sleep meditations are so good, but this is my absolute favourite sleep meditation story
That makes me so happy to hear, Joanna! Thank you-- wishing you the coziest of sleep and sweetest of dreams!
Perfect to fall asleep to for the second snowy night in a row.. Bundle up and stay warm everyone if you are getting this storm! Wonderful job Michelle 💙💙
Bundle up-- what timing considering these record snowstorms in the States! Time to get cozy for real.
This is your best so far.. Totally gets me to sleep before she gets home from her walk almost every time.
Thank you, Linda! Wishing you cozy dreams!
This is beautiful. Your attention to detail is truly amazing. You have such a special gift. Thank you for sharing 💚💙
Thank you-- I simply hope to conjure all the good feelings of being human that I can. Sweet dreams!
thank you again, Michelle. because of you, I can fall asleep after a hectic day.
I hope you have magical dreams that come!
Gorgeous! It's so tantalising having to wait for these new ones! I love it! I honestly get so excited!
That was perfect as always, Michelle, thank you for keeping me company tonight, you really cheered me up 💖💖
I'm always happy to be here for the journey and to cheer you up in anyway I can! 💜
Recently found your channel Michelle and love it! Been listening to you every night. Especially love the cabin ones with snow/rain. I customized this to be in Colorado🌄💜 Thank you for doing this.
That sounds so lovely-- I will write a story about Colorado some day! 💜
Wow. This is awesome! You are awesome.

So happy to read this, Linda! I hope it continues to bring snowy, cozy dreams.
This is my 4th time around, you are my favourite. Thank you very much!!!!!
I loved this Michelle😚 I asked you recently if you could do a cozy story set in Vermont THANKS for obliging😉💕
I'm so glad you did-- and hope you have the coziest night of sleep!
Hi Michelle, I think this ties for my favorite of all! Thank you for the vivid, creative, and personal narratives you offer. I find that your meditations and stories lull me to sleep better than any other site. What a gift, and for that, I thank you!❤️

I'm excited for this. I love the quiet, in the woods, stormy weather stories. Thanks for all of your hard work. It's much appreciated.
I hope you enjoy it-- I look at some many photos of beautiful chalets and cottages on lakes in my daily life, they were bound ti inspire a new story!
@@MichellesSanctuary I absolutely loved this. Kudos! 🥂
Same! My fave kind of story! You are such a gift to us, Michelle - no one writes sleeps stories like you, and you have helped me so much with my insomnia. May God bless you in a special way, dear one.
I keep coming back to this story over and over! Love this story ❤️
I’m so happy it resonates with you 💜
This is a masterpiece of relaxation. Been incredibly stressed lately, so bless your heart for creating this
Yay!!! Can't wait to hear this one!!
you are the best!!😊no one comforts me like you do Michelle!!! ❤I love the stories with our beloved pet's 🐕 thank you my friend for what you do, you comfort me and give me peace☺☺🌹🌷🌼🌻🌻🌻sending love and light
Thank you, Tricia-- this made my night to read. I have a new one with a pet coming out this weekend that's about a cabin in the Rocky Mountains.
I really liked this story! Have you ever considered doing a story where you rock a newborn to sleep? I realize it might not be everyones cup of tea, but i would love it!
That is a really interesting idea to incorporate! I know how calming that has been for me in real life with my niece-- at times I nearly fell asleep before her! 💜
Last two have been really great, I am sure this one will not disappoint, something to look forward too
Hope you enjoy, Alan! Sweet dreams!
@@MichellesSanctuary thanks for all the great work you do, love it, my favourite

Happy Valentine's Day, Shona! Wishing you the sweetest of dreams to come!
Love this. Haven't listened to it for a wee while now 💞
I have been looking forward to this! Excited to listen :-)
Hope it brings you sleep and the sweetest of dreams!
The first time I listened to this one I fell asleep at the general store. I hope Ike and Martha don't mind my having a little snooze in one of the aisles. 😅 The second time I actually made it to the chalet, so warm and cozy. Thanks for this soothing sleep story!

I'm so glad! Yes. We it's so true-- we can put it behind us. And not let it creep into our sleep vacation! Thank you, Karen. 💜
Best meditation I've heard in a long time!!!!!!
Thank you for sharing-- I hope it brings you peace and cozy sleep! 💜
Have to work, looking forward to a great night
I would love for Martha and Ike to meet up with the Laundry Club 💞
Okay, working on this 💜
As a chronic insomniac I love your work...
Some ideas I had
* 1920s Paris
*yorkshire dales in wwIl era
*Siberia winter train
Great ideas! I will definitely create the train ride story this month!
Listening to this right before bed. 🥱😴
Hope it brings you the best dreams and sleep, Monika!

I live for these sleep meditations. It’s like a hug for your brain. ❤️❤️
I need to make a slogan out of that, Lindsay. My brain could use a hug! Actually, writing at night has been giving me just that.
Love this one as well.💛🧡...i listened last night and fell asleep...so I'll listen again tonight🦉🦉 and try to stay awake to hear the end of this story....🤍❤🤍

This looks great! I love the woods! Have a amazing Valentines Day🥰

Isn’t it best to have self-love AND romantic love too? I’m sure Martha and Ike know what I mean. 🕊️💕
I'm sure they do-- even when bickering over the same silly things they have bickered over since they were teens.
Very nice.
Thank you 💜

I think I’m responsible for at least 2k of these likes
Grateful for every one of them 🥰
Great content. Will definitely come back for the next. When is it coming out? Thumbs Up 👍
Thanks, Ethan-- welcome and hope you keep coming back. If you ever have requests, let me know~ 💜
Doggone it, didn't even get to the chalet 💤
