Embrace the coziness and folklore of autumn in tonight’s magical bedtime story. In tonight’s story, while the leaves turn and autumn settles around you, you enjoy the fruits of your very own pumpkin patch. As you savor the fall weather and view from your porch, you notice a strange dancing light over the pumpkin patch. Investigating further, you learn that this curious light is, in fact, a wandering spirit looking for a home. Your compassion stirs, and you carve your finest pumpkin into a jack-o-lantern for the spirit to inhabit.   If you’re still awake at the end of the story, I’ll guide you through a soothing meditation for nourishing your inner light.   -   ✨Pre-order is live for the Sleep & Sorcery book!✨ https://www.crossedcrowbooks.com/shop-crossed-crow-books/p/sleepandsorcery Sleep & Sorcery: A Collection of Enchanting Bedtime Stories, Rituals, and Spells for Meaningful Rest, coming August 2024 from Crossed Crow Books.
