Sleepy Bedtime Blessings

🌟 Welcome back to Sleepy Bedtime Blessings, where we offer soothing stories and angelic insights to help you relax and unwind. In this episode, the angels bring forth beautiful inspiration and encouragement for your co-creative endeavors. We make space for your prayers and intentions to be received in the loving heart of the Divine.

🌈 Then, join me as we take a trip down memory lane and explore some childhood memories. We'll also explore the gap between my magical thinking of it would be easy to learn to ice skate or ride a horse only to be faced with the reality that these endeavors took hard work (not my favorite thing). Having this body would not be as easy as I had thought it would be. We'll also discover the joys of watching Bozo's Circus on WGN every day at 12 pm and the brilliance of the Grand Prize Game!

So, settle in and let the angels guide you to a place of peace and calm as we explore childhood memories and the magical thinking of a child's heart.

And also a heartfelt heavenly shoutout of gratitude to my parents who were always willing to send me to classes for the activities I wanted to learn. Thanks, mom + dad!  ❤️🙏

🌸 Hello Beautiful Friends! Welcome to episode 137 of Sleepy Bedtime Blessings! I am your host Laurel Bleadon-Maffei and in this episode, the angels bring forth a beautiful infusion of light to help you connect with the quality of self-love and the magic in your soul.

For storytime, we take a stroll down memory lane and flip through the pages of TV Guide from January 1963. Although I was only eight months old at the time and have no memories of watching live TV back then, many of the programs listed in this issue are familiar to many of us who grew up as TV watchers in the years to come. 1963's programming included Beverly Hillbillies, Ed Sullivan, Dick Van Dyke and The Jetsons. 📺

So, sit back, relax, and let the angels and I soothe you into dreamland. 💤
