A special mention and welcome to the NINE new Patrons in the last week! 😍❤️ you're all absolute legends. Enjoy this wee tour around some of the most South-Western of the Scottish islands! Hope you don't get the travel bug tooooo bad. 😉 S x
Did not make it thru this one yet... RIGHT off to sleep... also have been catching up on old patron's, so I feel like I'm cheating on you with YOU! does youtube help you more, or patreon page? Such a dilemma! What's a hen to do???
Thank you to all the Patrons who can support this channel momentarily; I am not yet able to do the same. I appreciate still being able to listen, as I suffer from chronic insomnia. One day I will be able to support this channel monetarily, but until then, I am eternally grateful to all Patrons! Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️, and thank you, Sam, for this beautiful new sleep story; I truly enjoyed it...until I fell asleep. Much love & Gratitude, Xxx, Elsie
Hi Sam. OK so I'll put my hand up and tell you that I can't give any suggestions about stories, because I've never heard any of them. I've never ever been able to just fall asleep and I have been struggling for around 8 years now with insomnia. My normal time of falling asleep would take hours, with me getting more and more frustrated... that was, until I came across your channel. I cannot explain how you have managed to solve my problem, but when I put your stories on, I can guarantee you that I don't remember much after you tell us to get comfortable and close our eyes. I may give you 1 or 2 minutes after that sentence, but I couldn't tell you what any of your stories are about! I'd say I'm sorry, but I'm not (proper sorry this time)! You have enabled me to fall asleep so quickly and I can't thank you enough! I do tend to wake up after a couple of hours, but I normally go for your long stories just in case. When I do wake up, I may hear a sentence from you and I'm gone again. So please accept my absolute gratitude for saving my sanity. You're an absolute legend! 😊 💤🏆
Well, Deb, what can I say? I always love hearing success stories, let alone one's which stem from there stories. I'm so, so pleased you've found SOMETHING which works for you. I know it can be a total nightmare, often for years and years. Anyway, welcome. And I hope these continue to help you for a long time coming. :) S x
Only just heard the beginning of the story: "there is an indefinable magic about islands", and it touched my soul as I adore Islands, big and small, in hot climes and in cold. All have their special individual characters. Thank you for this!
Hopefully this helps me fall asleep. I learned a life lesson today and it is breaking my heart. Loving someone who does not love you in return is more painful than being alone. I’m ready for the day to end
Trust me Bethany, when I say I know exactly what you're going through and I'm thinking about you. It hurts now, but soon the pain WILL ease. I promise you. It goes without saying that you're not alone. If you want or need a little support or someone to speak with, email me. Take care and stay strong. S x
@@SnoozewithSam Thank you. For everything you have done for me, for all of us who lean on you for support. You’ve been a blessing for me in more ways then I can express.
Sam may not realize he does more than help put us to sleep. He is like a friend that walks us through our day & then tucks us in saying "it's gonna be ok, you aren't alone"
Hi Sam. Thank you for your kind and thoughtful words in your opening. I do feel a personal connection, listening to you.. yours is the last voice I hear before I fall asleep. That is an intimate time for all of us. Stories about dogs or other animals will always be the ones that I choose first. Sometimes the stories are told by the animal and that is an author's challenge that I appreciate. Good night Sam and thank you for sharing your gifted writing and calming voice. Liked, of course.
Loving this one so much. Also loving the longer lengths. You thank us for commenting, but really, you are truly gifted. We're so lucky to have you here for us. Thanks, Sam.
Your voice is now part of my nighty routine. I couldn't go to sleep without you. Eventually I hope to get an entire 8 hours without wakes! Between the two of us, I think it is a tangible goal. Thank you for sharing with us, the sleep starved.
It absolutely is a tangible goal - a little at a time, and practice, and eventually, our habits can change entirely. One day soon, you will likely not need me! But you can have me here as an option :) S x
I really enjoyed this .I love hearing about Scotland. One of the most peace filled evenings I have ever spent was sitting on a beach in Broadford(?) on the Isle of Skye, just as the sun was setting.. the view before me was bathed in pink and purple light.. love listening about history, people , places , legends, traditions and scenery… I loved in this video how my breathing fitted in with the rhythm of the waves- very clever of you. Thank you for telling such a great story( even though I heard less than half as I fell pleasantly asleep)
Wonderful to hear you have such fond memoroes of Skye! Broadford is the place, indeed - not a romantic place to me (having been a resident of the island), but it's wonderful that it can produce moments such as those! They're usually weather dependant... ;) Thank you, and you are always most welcome. S x
Thank you, Sam. I love hearing about the different islands. Years ago, my parents had their "dream holiday " during which they visited the Hebrides, Orkneys, Harris & Lewis. The photos were spectacular. Scotland is definitely on my bucket list.
I love listening to the stories as I go to sleep. Accent helps a lot too. 😋. I saw y'all have a lighthouse on skye. Could you do a story with the lighthouse?!
Thank you, Roxy! We do indeed have a couple - Neist is the most known, but there is also Point of Sleat etc. I'd love to do another one, to be honest! I shall put it in the pipeline. S x
I'm back to my sleep stories and really really LOVED this. My favourite to date! 🥰😴. Did you record the waves sound yourself? Water and fire sounds are instant soothers for me. Will be using this one again am sure! Even though it was very brief I loved the live campfire video you did, rare for me to catch you live but happy I saw that one. You asked for suggestions so I'm going to give mine.... would love a story read over a live campfire, even if you only record 5 mins of fire and put on a loop while you read a story I'd love it. Or (and am getting greedy now) a beach campfire with the fire and waves together ❤🔥🌊⛺⛱ Take care and sleep well Sam, same to all your listeners xx
When you pause such a long time I fall asleep and then your voice keeps waking me up. Otherwise I love your voice. Maybe you could have one where you dont pause such a long time (like on Honest Guys videos).
Hello! Appreciate the feedback. Bear in mind this story is 2 years old. 😊 whooft.. time flies. You'll find pretty much all the stories in the last few years more to your liking, I hope! S x

Thank you as always Elsie. Just your frequent, kind words are more than enough support, I can assure you. S x

My heart goes out to you as well bethany, "snooze with sam" is such a sweet family & community here.
@@lorifromtemeculaca426 This channel has helped in so many areas of my life. Thank you for your message

A accent makes the narrator sound like a adventure story is unfolding. I wish they had a weather and nice stores.
Thank you! S x

Thank you Fran, you're very kind. And that's a wonderful idea, I too enjoy them! Who doesn't love our furry friends, anyway? S x
Thank you, Sam
PLEASE post a video with that incredible beginning music throughout! It brings me right to your backyard!
Your wish is my command! New story, complete with music, coming right up... :) S x

I hope you get all the success you deserve! And always keep this grounded approach.

Thank you Meg! These islands will be the subject of their own very soon... :) S x
Several times thru this one now, trying to hear it all... what I have heard is lovely & so is the sleep! Thank you again sam ;-)
I'm beginning to wonder if you're ever awake these days, Lori! ;) S x
What? Zzzzzzzz... I was asleep, sorry... and it's ALL your fault!
This one has become a fast favorite! I’ve listened two nights in a row! It’s great Sam, thank you!!
Aww, wonderful Jessica! And thank you again for becoming a Patron! :D S x
I finally was able to subscribe to your Patreon! Been listening to these videos for so long and I'm so excited that my name is on there now!!! 😍🥰
You were! Thank you SO much Annessa :D S x
You could write a whole book of this! "Explore Scotland: A Travel Guide for Adventures"
I think this is one of my favorites. I love learning about the islands as I drift off to sleep. Thank you!
Amazing, thank you! S x
I love listening to the stories as I go to sleep. Accent helps a lot too. 😋. I saw y'all have a lighthouse on skye. Could you do a story with the lighthouse?!

@@SnoozewithSam the neist lighthouse is the one I saw when I looked up skye.

LOLOL! Yes ally! ;-)
Yes Ally, all sounds have at some point, been recorded locally! :) and thank you for those suggestions! Cracking ideas - added to my brain burner! S x
