  • Migraine support

    I found this podcast while looking for something to help me relax during a migraine. The podcast was so soothing, especially the emphasis on cool, dark places with fresh crisp air. I managed to relax and fall asleep despite the pain. Now planning to listen to the other podcasts available.

  • Miss first person story..I like imagining myself and not others

    Found this channel to replace another channel that started charging…only channel I found that does first person stories and puts you in charge but recently her stories are about others and it really kills the vibe. I don’t care about characters all other channels have stories…I want to imagine myself going on journeys. So sad for this change…
