Wellness Loud

Can’t sleep? You’re not alone—and there’s help.
Nothing Much Happens is a bedtime story podcast beloved by millions. Yoga and meditation teacher Kathryn Nicolai tells soothing, cozy stories where—just as the title says—nothing much happens. That’s the magic.
Instead of spiraling thoughts or anxious scrolling, you’ll be gently guided to a calm, comfortable place. Each episode is read twice, with a slower second telling to ease you into rest.
Trusted by listeners for over seven years and streamed more than 180 million times, it’s a ritual of safety, comfort, and sleep.

Nothing much happens: bedtime stories to help you sleep

Our story tonight is called Return to the Chalet, Part 3, and it is, for now, the last in this series. It’s a story about a trek through the snow to the home of a friend, it’s also about French Toast and roasted potatoes, a snoring dog beside the fire, bird feeders and twinkle lights, lighted windows seen from afar, and someplace safe to wait out the storm.

Window Weather (Encore)

Our story tonight is called Return to the Chalet, Part 2, and it’s picking up where Part 1 ended, at a little cabin at the foot of a snow-covered slope. It’s also about waking without an alarm and coffee by the fire, saunas and hot stones, soft hoodies, and not having to decide anything, quiet exchanges, and the achievement of letting yourself receive care without argument.

We donate to a different charity each week, and this week we are supporting The Canadian Children’s Book Centre. They work to help Canadian parents, librarians, educators, and caregivers foster a lifelong love of reading in children and teens.

Winter Getaway, Parts 1 - 3 (Encore)

Our story tonight is called Return to the Chalet, and it is a sort of "season two" of a fan-favorite series from a few winter’s back called Winter Getaway though you don’t need to listen to that three-parter to find your place in this one. It’s a story about a trip out of town after the bustle of the holidays settles down. It’s also about landmarks spotted from the highway, a plate of black and white cookies made with love, the moment the sun dips below the cloud cover on its way to setting, and the cumulative effect of giving yourself what you need when you need it.
