Following the Old Cedar Path Home — Bedtime Sleep Stories For GrownupsTake a slow walk with us along an old forest path. The trail begins at a weathered trailhead sign, soft with moss, and we step under the canopy where the light filters down through tall cedars and hemlocks. The air smells of clean cedar bark and old leaves. Our feet sink gently into a carpet of needles as we move deeper into the grove, where shafts of warm light fall across the floor of the forest and a small bird sings its three-note song far above us.We come out into a fern meadow brushed with late afternoon gold, where dragonflies hover and the warm light finds a flat stone waiting for us to rest. Then the path leads down to a small wooden bridge over a clear creek, the water moving slowly over smooth stones, and we stop in the middle of the bridge to listen. After the creek, the path climbs gently to a ridge overlooking a layered valley, the hills beyond fading one into another toward the horizon.On the way home, the trail winds down through alders and a small wooden bench appears beside the path, set back under the low branches, built by someone long ago for whoever needed to rest. We sit for a while. Then we walk on, our legs heavy in the good way, the smell of cedar still in our breath, the sound of the creek still in our ears, the view from the ridge still in our mind. By the time the path returns to the trailhead, the evening is coming on, the body is ready to rest, and whatever sleep wants to arrive can arrive without being chased. Pure guided nature walk, narrated softly and slowly, with quiet pauses woven throughout.📻 Listen to Hustle Studios Radio 24/7!🎧 Live stream: https://radio.hustlestudios.net/live🔊 All our podcasts — playing back to back, anytime!Music track: Thoughtful by PufinoSource: https://freetouse.com/musicRoyalty Free Music (Free Download)License: https://freetouse.com/licenseThis episode is a work of fiction.
