The Enchanted Forest Walk

"Step away from the day and wander beneath a living canopy of emerald as Michael guides you on a slow, sensory walk through an enchanted forest. Sun-flecked paths, birdsong, and the scent of moss lead you toward a hidden waterfall whose rainbow-kissed mist melts every ounce of tension. Float in the cool, crystalline pool, rest on sun-warmed stone, and feel the hush of ancient trees cradle you into effortless rest. This sleep story weaves mindful breath cues, gentle nature imagery, and soft ambient sound to help your nervous system down-shift and your thoughts drift. There’s no rush to reach the end—let sleep claim you whenever it arrives. All you have to do is press play, settle in, and let the forest carry you home to dreams." -- Email the show at lettingitsettle@michaelgalyon.com  Subscribe to Letting It Settle Follow Michael Galyon on  Instagram: @michael.galyon  Tik Tok: @coachmichael1 Visit his website at https://www.michaelgalyon.com/ Proudly produced and managed by Good Mess Media Sponsorship and brands, please contact Tracey Thomas at hello@goodmessmedia.com Learn more about your ad choices.
