Books at Bedtime by Calming Anxiety - Where Love is, God Is by Tolstoy

Sleep Story for Insomnia & Deep Relaxation — Where Love Is, God Is by Leo Tolstoy | Books at Bedtime



A slow, calming sleep story to quiet a racing mind and help you fall asleep — and stay asleep.



If insomnia keeps you awake, let this gentle bedtime story carry you down into deep, restful sleep. "Where Love Is, God Is" is a warm, softly-read classic short story by Leo Tolstoy — over half an hour of unhurried narration, with no music swells, no cliffhangers and no jolts, just a calm voice and a slow, sleepy pace designed to ease you into relaxation.



The story follows Martin the cobbler, who lives in a little basement room and watches the world pass by his window, until a whispered promise leads him through one quiet day of small kindnesses. It's tender, comforting and utterly soothing — the perfect thing to drift off to.



This is Books at Bedtime and Coffee Break for the Soul from Calming Anxiety — sleep stories, relaxing audiobook readings and calm bedtime meditations for insomnia, anxiety and deep sleep, read by clinical hypnotherapist and former paramedic Martin Hewlett.



So turn off the light, close your eyes, and let this classic bedtime story relax your body and quieten your mind. Let the words blur, let go of the day, and sleep.



Sleep well.
