Latest episode 4 months ago

Escape the trap of endless doom-scrolling on your phone and enter a mystical world of audio-based enchantment. Picture Miss Honey from Matilda whispering a bedtime story into your ear, creating the audio version of a warm cup of tea combined with a long hug for your nervous system. Ever since childhood, I've been plagued with racing thoughts and existential dread at bedtime. The only thing that ever helped me sleep was listening to bedtime stories on tape or CD (major '90s baby energy, I know.) I've always been particularly fascinated with the esoteric (hidden) wisdom of both Eastern and Western mystical traditions, as well as metaphysical spirituality. The creation, curation, and production of this project is my love letter to anyone with similar fascinations and struggles. Each episode allows you to unwind while awakening to arcane wisdom at the same time. I produce each episode myself, intuitively weaving in selected ambient sounds and soothing solfeggio frequencies to create a truly immersive experience. Whether you seek deep sleep, consciousness expansion, or pure relaxation, Night Night Bitch has got you covered. Choose to listen to embrace a deeper and more restful sleep or enjoy an episode to induce a conscious, meditative state—it's your choice. Prepare to be transported to a realm where dreams and relaxation intertwine. Bid farewell to restless nights and awaken to higher truths.
