Description

It's relaxation with a twist.


Made for those of us who need something to help quieten our minds ready for sleep, but who find modern meditative ‘visualisations’ a bit cheesy. Ours are a lot sillier (and frequently not suitable for children).


A joint offering from Artlandish & Dark Unicorn Productions.

Read by Sophia BehnWe apologise yet again for the lateness of this episode. We want to say it will be different next time, that we can change, but we both know that isn’t true. Deep down you know that’s why you’re drawn to us. We’re the kind of bad boy pod you can dip into now and then but don’t really have to commit to. Some days you blame your father for this, but if you’re honest with yourself, you know its just something deep inside you that refuses to take that next step. Anyway, lots to discuss at your next session with Dr Peters. Written by Katy MatthewsJingle by Helena MacCormackMusic by Ilya Myagkov on PixabaySound effects:water movement body dive in by kyles -- License: Creative Commons 0Underwater ambience with bubbles by 170084 -- License: Attribution NonCommercial 4.0thin metal sliding door close by kernschall -- License: Attribution 4.0waves on crosby beach by crosbychris -- License: Attribution NonCommercial 4.0Contains some strong languageAn Artlandish & Dark Unicorn co-production Hosted on Acast.
