  • The Feel Better Show: a relaxation & calming story

    Liam wants to help his mom feel better when she comes home with a headache. Will his special concert cheer her up?

    Narrator: Male

    Story Begins: 3:46

    The Feel Better Show Excerpt:

    Liam looked up at his mom. “Your head hurts?” he asked.

    She nodded. “A little, but I’ll be okay. I’m just looking forward to being somewhere quieter.”

    Liam frowned. He didn’t like hearing that his mother didn’t feel good. He wished her head did not hurt, and, more than that, he wished he knew how to help. As they finished shopping, checked out, and drove home, Liam kept thinking about how he could help his mom feel better.

    Today’s Meditation: Relax as you imagine you are a baby penguin snuggled close to its papa.

  • 🎶 Singing Sparrow: a story and meditation for your bedtime routine

    Soledad Sparrow’s day doesn’t go as she planned, but Gus Goldfinch helps her cheer up.

    Narrator: Female

    Story Begins: 3:12

    Singing Sparrow Excerpt:

    There were many berry bushes in the forest, but Soledad usually went to the same one, a large blueberry bush not far from the edge of the forest. The bush had extra tasty berries, and it sat in a patch of lush green grass. Ever since she had first discovered this bush, Soledad had come back to it again and again. Soledad liked routines and knowing what to expect.Once she was in the forest, Soledad flew along the stream, following it to that special blueberry bush. She soon reached the bush…but when she arrived, she quickly saw that there wasn’t a single blueberry left on it! Soledad flew all around the bush, but she didn’t see any berries at all. How strange! She had been at the bush just a few days ago. There hadn’t been tons of berries then, but there had definitely been some left. What could have happened to them? Soledad frowned. Perhaps someone else ate the blueberries.Today’s Meditation: Relax as you imagine sunlight warming you as you lie in a grassy meadow.Creating the original bedtime stories and art for Be Calm on Ahway Island takes a lot of time and care.

Britney noticed a ring of white-spotted mushrooms near the path. They looked like something from a fairy tale. She also found a stick shaped like a crooked letter Y and picked it up to carry with her, twirling it as she walked.Today’s Meditation: Relax as you imagine sunlight warming you as you lie in a grassy meadow.Creating the original bedtime stories and art for Be Calm on Ahway Island takes a lot of time and care.

  • Sweeter Than Honey 🐻🍯: a relaxing story and meditation for kids

    Bernie Bear is looking forward to getting honey from his friends the bees, but ends up getting something even better.

    Sweeter Than Honey Excerpt:

    Bernie loved honey; it was his absolute favorite thing! He didn’t get it all the time, as it was a special treat, so Bernie was always extra appreciative when he got the chance to eat it. He and the bees had made an appointment for Bernie to come get some honey today.The honey bees were always so kind to him, Bernie thought as he walked through the forest, the sun shining through the branches of the tall, green pine trees and the shorter red maple trees. As Bernie lumbered through the autumnal beauty of the woods, he wished that he would have a chance someday to do something kind for the bees in return for their kindness to him.Today’s Meditation: Imagine floating on a cloud, and relax into the feeling of lightness.

  • Sleepy Sharks: a relaxing short story and meditation

    Shayla Shark just doesn’t feel sleepy! Can her friends Sean and Santiago help?

    Narrator: Male

    Story Begins: 3:47

    Sleepy Sharks Excerpt:

    Shayla Shark felt the cool water glide past her fins as she swam in a circle around her favorite coral arch. At this hour, Shayla usually felt sleepy and ready for a good rest. After a full day of swimming, exploring, and playing on the reef, her body was usually happy to settle down.

    But tonight, Shayla did not feel sleepy at all. In fact, she felt wide awake. Each time she tried to close her eyes, they popped right back open again. And so here she was, swimming in circles, wondering why her body did not feel ready for rest.

  • 🍪 Ahway Adventure Cookies: a mindful bedtime story

    Oscar Oven worries when the Parker family tries to bake cookies without a recipe. How will they turn out?

    Narrator: Female

    Story Begins: 4:01

    Ahway Adventure Cookies Excerpt:

    “I know. I’m sorry. I forgot,” Emily repeated. “Is there anything we can make tonight?” she asked, voice full of hope.Mr. Parker walked over to the pantry, opened the door, and looked inside. “Let’s see what we have. Maybe we can still figure something out.”Oscar felt his excitement leaving and worry creeping in. Baking usually required exact measurements and ingredients. It needed a plan. And that meant everything ready to go, a recipe on the counter, measuring cups out, and everything happening in the right order. This did not sound like a plan at all.Today’s Meditation: Relax as you imagine sunlight warming you as you lie in a grassy meadow.Creating the original bedtime stories and art for Be Calm on Ahway Island takes a lot of time and care.
