Ep105: Sleep Stories: An Excellent Way to Fall Asleep - With Vee Lockard

OVERVIEW

If you are the type of person who can fall asleep really fast the moment that your back touches your bed, you should consider yourself lucky to have that ability. Because there are people who spend half of the time at night figuring out how to do it. Some take sleep medications to survive the night but wake up feeling groggy the following day. There are some who spend time doing meditations and other exercises before bedtime just to feel tired and sleepy. But why do all this when you can just simply listen to sleep stories right before bedtime?

For this week’s episode, I am so grateful to have on the show Vee Lockard the co-founder and one of the narrators of the “snoozecast” podcast. Just like you Vee and her husband also suffer from having a hard time falling asleep at night. Until they tried reading bedtime stories to each other to help them with their sleep disorder. Because of its positive effect on their sleep, they have decided to share this process by creating a podcast that aims to help people with the same sleep problem. In this interview, Vee will share why listening to sleep stories is better rather than taking sleep medications. She will also give you advice on how you can have a restful sleep every night. Tune in and find out why listening to sleep stories is an excellent way to fall asleep!
