    Looking for a way to unwind after a stressful day? Enter the state of tranquility with these adult bedtime stories! 
Listening to a short tale will get you in the mood to sleep and prepare you for your journey to dreamland. 
As you grew up, you probably stopped asking for these nightly story sessions. You saw it as corny, childish, or you just didn’t have the time. But what if a bedtime story’s effectiveness goes beyond childhood? It turns out adults can still benefit, too! 
Whether you’re stressed or simply trying to get in that sleepy mood, listening to bedtime stories is an effective way of getting yourself ready for sleeping. 
The best part is you don’t even have to read them! While some people still prefer reading, technology makes it possible for you to listen to them instead. Audiobooks, and most recently, podcasts, give you the power to choose when and where you want to enjoy them. 
Allow your body to enter the state of absolute tranquility and restful sensation so you feel more rested than ever before.
