These sleep stories for adults can be read by the person who wants to fall asleep, or read to someone to help them fall asleep, or audio recorded for personal use to help you fall asleep. Each bedtime story is a transcript of a 20-35 minute long hypnotic healing bedtime story. For most of human history storytelling helped people to share knowledge and wisdom while inspiring change and creativity. Storytelling is one of the oldest forms of verbal hypnosis. Stories stimulate and access the dreaming brain allowing people to update their neurology with new learning to change thinking, behaviours and responses to life events. Somewhere along the way storytelling became associated with children, it was seen as odd if you were an adult who said you liked listening to stories. This has now started to change, adults listening to stories and reading bedtime stories is on the rise. Dan Jones has over 20 years experience using storytelling as a form of therapy and to help people sleep, he also has a successful YouTube channel 'Dan Jones Hypnosis' with over 100 hypnotic healing bedtime stories for adults and over 20 sleep stories for children.

These stories are fiction; even though some of the names or the similarities of events will be familiar to some of the readers. After all, how many people have the same names or have had similar experiences? The short stories that I have written deal with God, love, loyalty, greed, trust, wickedness, ungratefulness, revenge and the plain idiocy of some people. These stories also show the results of the aforementioned, when they are given to, or used against, the wrong person. I am sure, that most of you who read these short stories can relate some of the events, or the results of` a specific act, or actions to events that have happened in your own lives. For example, your love taken for granted and rewarded with deceit. Your loyalty and trust repaid by treachery, greed, or ungratefulness. The mistake that you are never forgiven for; even though they benefited greatly by your mistake! And in the end, a thank you very much that really meant, Fuck you very much, sucker! One of the stories was written in a fairy tale fashion in order to justify some of the characters¿ impossible feats. The others are written in a more contemporary fashion, lacking unnecessary and over-sophisticated words, for easier reading pleasure.

There are few more precious routines than that of the bedtime story. So why do we discard this invaluable ritual as grown-ups to the detriment of our well-being and good health?

Poems and short stories, fairy tales and fables, reveries and nocturnes – from William Shakespeare to Haruki Murakami, Charles Dickens to Roald Dahl, Rabindranath Tagore to Nora Ephron, Vladimir Nabokov to Neil Gaiman – are all woven together to replicate the journey of a single night’s sleep. Some of today’s greatest storytellers reveal their choice of the ideal grown-up bedtime story: writers such as Margaret Drabble, Ken Follett, Tessa Hadley, Robert Macfarlane, Patrick Ness, Tony Robinson and Warsan Shire.
