A sleepy Italian fairy tale about how to know a true friend and the magical healing powers of saints. 

If the podcast helps you sleep, it's your support that allows me to be your bedtime storyteller and meditation guide. For just $4.99 a month, you'll have immediate access to the entire archive of over 350 episodes and all the weekly stories & meditations a day earlier. By popular request, you can now listen to the stories, meditations and audiobook chapters all organized into their own separate, easy-to-use feeds. Even on Spotify. :). To join or learn more, visit https://listentosleep.supportingcast.fm. 

If you'd like to join me for a zoom gathering with the Awaken Your Myth group, it's free and you can sign up at https://awakenyourmyth.com. 

Would you like to fall asleep easier and wake up feeling refreshed? Join my free newsletter and I'll send you a story every month about something I've learned living on the mountain, along with tips to help you get a better night's sleep and find peace during the day. As a bonus, you'll receive a free sleepy audiobook and a 30-minute recording of the peaceful creek behind my cabin. Join now at https://www.listentosleep.com/blog/category/newsletter/. 

You can also leave a tip or buy a shareable audiobook of the longer books I read on Listen To Sleep Plus. It's a great way to support the podcast and get some extra bedtime stories without a monthly subscription. Each one is available to own for just $5.50 as chapterized mp3s that will play on any MP3 player. You can find them at https://www.listentosleep.com/store.
