Enjoy this deepest sleep story ever...! This Wonder in the forest bedtime story for grown ups is a long sleep story for grown ups created with ideas from viewers about a man in a cabin in the woods. There is a cat in front of the fireplace, drifting asleep. The man is baking a cake. While the cake is in the oven, he sits in a chair reading a book. After a short while, before the cake has finished cooking, there is a powercut. He assumes that perhaps the snow outside has bought down a powerline. He turns on some battery-powered candles. As he looks out of the window into the night, he watches tiny dancing lights in the distance and suspects they are fireflies. The man checks that the cake is done, before settling back down in the chair, stroking the cat, as the cat drifts asleep. The man drifts into a reverie himself while focusing on his ongoing experience (I guide the listener through a variation of the Betty Erickson 3-things hypnotic induction (a self-hypnosis induction), a similar version appears in CBT often referred to as the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique where they have just dropped the words 'hypnotic induction' and just call it a technique). Drifting into the reverie, he finds himself in his cabin on a warm summers day. He heads outside and sees and hears the wildlife as he heads to the forest. In the forest, he notices a red thread tied to a tree which weaves between trees. He follows the thread. He follows that thread down into a cave where he finds a friendly bear wearing a red woolen jumper. A young bear appears and talks with the man, explaining that they tied the thread of the Dad's jumper to a tree and see if his Dad would notice as his jumper unraveled. The man heads out for a walk with the bears. They head to a river and the man has to catch fish for dinner. After catching the fish, they all sit around a campfire, eating and drifting into philosophical discussion before heading back to the cabin. Back at the cabin, he settles down reading a book which gets larger in his hands. He notices he is actually getting smaller. He climbs down from the chair, finds a small door in the wall, heads through the door, down steps and out of another door leading outside. He heads outside into the night. He pushes through the grass which towers over him. He notices orbs of light rising out of the water of the lake he rows out onto. The tide guides to a point on the bank. He walks up onto the bank where he encounters a badger. The badger explains about the orbs and how they are the birth or transformation of fairies from tiny underwater creatures, to fairies. The badger explains that the fairies are always there to help and explains that this reverie is more than just a reverie. The man heads closer back to the cabin on the back of a frog, as he does, so he notices the weather changing to snow again. As he nears the cabin he sees three mice throwing snowballs at the cabin. He heads into the cabin and heads towards himself in the seat. As he does, he gets larger and larger until he is his normal size. Once back at himself, he sits down into himself in the chair. He opens his eyes and notices it is still dark outside. He places the cat in front of the fire and heads to the cabin window. He can hear a low rumble of distant thunder. The man then heads to bed and while falling asleep, he thinks back over his reverie before drifting deeper into an inner experience of walking across a dreamland with a distant volcano, a raven in a tree, watching over him to make sure he is well and then a green fairy flying down to him and telling him to believe in magic. As he focuses on believing in magic a bear hands him a leather jacket and he heads off on a motorcycle towards that volcano, to go on a journey of adventure and discovery, as he drifts deeper asleep into a dream.
