Sea of Stars: Fantasy Sleep Story for Deep Rest | A Special Episode from Sleep & Sorcery
Sea of Stars: Fantasy Sleep Story for Deep Rest
If you’ve ever longed for a bedtime story that feels both magical and deeply calming, you’re in for a treat. In this week’s episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I’m sharing a special feature from the beloved podcast Sleep & Sorcery, created by Laurel Hostak Jones.
Sleep & Sorcery is one part bedtime story, one part guided meditation, and one part dreamy adventure. It combines original folklore and fantasy-inspired tales with soothing meditations, wrapping you in magic while gently guiding you toward deep rest. Laurel’s storytelling is peaceful and immersive, carrying you into enchanted forests, starlit skies, and realms of myth that feel both dreamy and restorative.
These cozy, compassionate stories inspire lovers of myth, fairy tale, and fantasy literature. Told in the second person, they draw you directly into the narrative so you can explore Elven forests, feast in enchanted castles, sail through the cosmos, and fly with dragons - all while you drift into rest.
About this episode: Sea of Stars
In today’s special episode, Sea of Stars, you step into the role of a celestial being - a caretaker of the cosmos. On your nightly sojourn through the stars, you visit constellations and offer gentle tune-ups where they are needed.
When dawn begins to rise, you return to your own cozy resting place in the nebula, ready to rest until you are called again. It’s a dreamy, expansive journey through the night sky, followed by a soothing body scan to guide you even deeper into rest.
As Walt Whitman so beautifully wrote in Leaves of Grass:
“I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journey work of the stars.”
So tonight, let yourself drift into this magical story and feel held by the vast, starry expanse.

A Favorite Tool for Better Sleep
Over the past 6 months, one of the things that has made the biggest difference in my nights has been a small handheld device called The Chill Pill. I didn’t expect it to impact me so much, but it’s truly deepened my sleep and become one of my go-to tools for helping my nervous system settle at bedtime.
The device works by sending gentle electrical pulses into the palm of your hand, stimulating pressure points that signal your body to shift out of “high alert.” The sensation feels a little unusual at first, but I find it incredibly calming, especially when I’m lying in bed. My kids even love using it to help them drift off more easily.
If your system struggles to unwind at night, or if you’d simply like extra support for calming and regulating throughout the day, this is a tool I can wholeheartedly recommend.
