This is one of your best and most beautiful stories, IMO. I so appreciated the gorgeous imagery and the history behind the location. Really loved it.
Oh thank you-- that means a lot. I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
I wish more US citizens could know the wonders of The Smoky Mountains. This Appalachian area formed when earth was simply Pangea ~500-million-years-ago. While there, one may imagine the place once attached to Western Africa of today; NYC down to Reading, PA was once someplace jammed between present Portugal and Morocco! My g-father and g-g-father mined coal nearby at WV and told of discovering oodles of prehistoric fossilized sea creatures and fishes in the rock walls and in tumbled stone with coal chunks after blasting with dynamite. High Smoky Mountain forests only grow up so far upon the tallest of peaks there where only scrub bushes, grasses, lichens and mosses survive the altitude and scant soil among the most breathtakingly beautiful, serene, most ancient high edges of earth. Camping and hiking there must be a non-stop spiritual experience with eyes wide open.
I live about an hour away from The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and I truly believe it's one of the most beautiful and magical places in the US or even the world. Cannot WAIT to listen to this tonight!
It truly is breathtaking-- hope you enjoy! 💜
I am so excited for this. My daughter and her two kids and I did a road trip in late May 2023. We drove through these mountains. I can’t wait to relive the beauty.
Nice! I assume y’all saw the highest mile+peak east of our North American Continental Divide (Mt. Mitchell) over Memorial Day weekend? It’s 6,684 feet above sea level! 🙄
@@yonitznkc Sadly we missed it. We flew into Charlotte and headed north to Virginia and West Virginia then through the mountains down to Gatlinburg/ Pigeon Forge area. We actually hit 15 states in 14 days. 1900 miles. We saw so much, but missed so much too. Can’t wait to come back and that will be on the list. Thank you.
I hope this brings back the best memories for you! 💜
This one is going to be delightful! Especially with the lovely fire sounds
I always sleep well to those sounds-- hope you enjoy it!
I’ll always come back to this one. It’s been a tough 24-hours, jobless again, but it seems I did gain a new friend from this experience: Jodi the music teacher. We’re both 61 and want to get together to sing and play. I’m going back to hand in school property tomorrow, bid final adieu, and meet Jodi for lunch someplace. She’s as shocked as me how they let me go the way they did. She wants to stay there 4 years. Having your stories, others’ CBT self-care videos, and now Jodi on the phone are all helping pull me through this difficult time, Michelle. Thank-you again. 🕊️🙏💕
What a wonderful thing to come out of it all. New things are always on the horizon.
This is one very lovely story, with beautiful imagery and descriptions. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Glad you enjoyed it 🌙
Michelle, you have truly outdone all the other perfect and splendid stories that you've created. I made sure that I had a task to do so I could listen to the narration all the way through. I'll listen again later tonight so I can dream away. . . ahhh. I find peace in your cabin stories. Perfection. Beauty. Peace.
PS I love that you used an excerpt of Dolly Parton's song.
She has such pure light and joy-- I felt I couldn't visit the Smokies without her. I'm so glad you listen to this all-- sweet cabin dreams!
I love love the mountains ⛰️ one of my favorite places to go and relax and get way is big bear lake in the San Bernardino mountains 😊❤ its 11pm here going to bed now so i can listen sending love and a peaceful sleep wish to you all sweet dreams from southern California 😴 😴 💤 😊
I recall driving from Las Vegas, NV to San Juan Capistrano, CA and passed through San Bernardino and then Big Bear Lake -many, many Hollywood and Burbank movies/TV shows were shot thereabout, huh? Being an original east-coaster, seeing Los Angeles’ shocking miles-away vista for the first time driving in my automobile was quite unforgettable! Mount Washington, New Hampshire, or Lookout Mountain, Chattanooga, Tennessee, are the only places near our east coast I can compare with San Bernardino, CA looking westward.
Tricia, the Great Smoky Mountains are VERY different from southern CA ones. The Smokies are closer in kind to hills of the Redwoods/Sequoias, or mountains near Roseland to Lake Tahoe. Our Appalachian Mountains (including Smokies) are twice-older than the earliest dinosaurs; the Rocky Mountains and Sierras of CA created obstacles for only the latest of dinosaurs -easier, the Great Smoky Mountains were about as high as the Rocky Mountains/Sierras comparatively as to our great-great-great-great-grandparents compare to any of us alive today; 7-times as ancient, all things being equal.
My daughter lived up there on the mountain several years and I always loved spending time there with here.
BB is a beautiful place.
@kelleywyskiel3478 yes indeed it is I have fond memories of fishing 🎣 with my dad in big 🐻 bear I lost my dad to lung cancer Oct 14 2022 I miss him so much it hurts, big bear was one of my family s favorite places to go camping and 🎣 I grew up in Ontario California
Can’t wait to listen to this tonight! Thank you so much Michelle for providing us with your amazing work via sleep stories. You truly have a magical gift. I wish you and your loved ones an amazing journey through life. ❤
I love your screenname so much. I have meant to mention that before. Thank you-- hope you enjoyed this one! 💜
@@MichellesSanctuary thank you. It was very hard to come up with it glad you love it. Anyway, I love that you are able to share your hard-work and gifts with the world. I found your channel because of me having trouble sleeping. I fell in love with your stories the moment I first listened to them. The first story I ever listened to and I might not get this correctly since I don’t know off the top of my head. 4 hours of continuous forest stories or something like that. The way you narrated it made me feel like I was in a forest and prancing around like a graceful bird trying to find something magical. You remind me of a character from a tv show called Good Witch. The character you remind me of is Cassie Nightingale who just wants the best for everyone and is nurturing and forgiving. There are three quotes from her. I absolutely love: “We are not defined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens to us.”-Cassie Nightingale. “Forgiveness is like love if it isn’t unconditional it doesn’t work.”-Cassie Nightingale. “Someday someone is going to write a story about you so make sure your life is a good one.”-Cassie Nightingale. You and this character have similar mannerisms. It’s truly cool. I love how you’re able to be yourself that takes courage. I would recommend a good witch. It’s amazing show There’s a bit of magic. It’s super cute. It’s a comedy romance and it’s really funny. I think you’ll love it the characters, especially Cassie Nightingale. Sorry for blabbering on I just wanted to tell you that. Also, I wish good things to come to you and your family. All the magical wonderful surprises life shall be with you! ❤️✨😊 -Maketheworldmakesense14
I am so sorry for this huge paragraph.
@@Maketheworldmakesense14 what a compliment-- I will check this out. Thanks for the recommendation and the kind words. I try very much try to live by these quotes for sure. Thank you for sharing this and being so inspirational yourself!
@@MichellesSanctuary Your welcome. 😊 I also struggle to live by these quotes. It may be hard but you can do it. Even if you struggle good things will come to you in the end. Your welcome for the recommendation as well. Good witch is such an awesome show. 😊✨
Ahh I'm so so excited to visit here with you tomorrow!! 🥰 The Appalachians have such a special kind of magic to them... So primal and archaic in their energy. Thank you again so much Michelle!! 🥰🙏❤️
Indeed! The Rocky Mountains loom majestic and awesome, but The Smoky Mountains lend much more ‘geographic-romanticism’ for the more experienced lovers of nature, of our Mother Earth. 🕊️💕
I hope you enjoyed it--- it is such a mystical and beautiful place to experience. 💜
This is perfect timing. I just got back from visiting home and family in Colorado and have been missing the mountains now that I’m back in Florida.
Oh how lovely-- stay cool in FL and I hope this helps! 💜
Looking forward to watching this later tonight! I was returning from Arlington Cemetary with family to Ohio. We went through the Smokies. It will be easy to envision them again with your story. Thanks Michelle🙏
Hey 70+ (me 60+), just so y’know, at timed 8:06 - 16:04 includes a ‘chapter’ I call “Pristine Stream Before Dusk.” It’s followed by timed 16:05 - 19:04 “Wildflower Path.” Michelle crafts wondrous li’l bitesized portions of beautiful literature, and I can’t help but bookmark them for re-experience sakes. Back in 1998, my dad took me to The Cherry River’s Virgin Spruce Forest (and many other trees) State Preserve at Pocahontas County, West Virginia. Part of why North Carolina became such a furniture producing mecca was because of old-growth trees along the eastern sides of The Great Smokies. They had very little coal there so every old-growth tree was eventually felled for furniture or housing or for building ships. In fact, every old tree east of the Mississippi River has been cut down, for one market or another, since the Louisiana Purchase brought westward migration. But for a survey error committed about 100-some-years-ago this rather large mountain side area above the Cherry River mesmerized even politicians back than -a no-brainer, this place had to be saved/protected for generations. I’ll never forget stopping at a gargantuan yellow birch tree I guesstimated would take four large men like me to wrap our arms around its girth in hopes of touching fingers. I reckon it was ~70-feet high? And right next to it sat a a fallen rotting tree trunk, curving its dead way along my view. It’s rotting was still 4-feet high, surrounded by mountain laurel, ferns and younger trees. That dead tree may have been rotting there since the Kennedy administration; goodness knows it may’ve been larger than the yellow birch when it finally went down. All you hear there are bird songs and breeze through the leaves. The pathway is very clear and easy to walk through and includes some board-walking where appropriate, or necessary. Dad and me walked for about 45-minutes and decided we had to turn back to make other appointments. You just can’t experience any place like it, and I encourage everyone to visit. 🕊️💕
What a beautiful drive--- I hope you enjoyed this! 💜
Yes it did have fish in the stream lol 🐟 trout to be exact, i use to love going trout fishing with my dad we went about a year ago i miss those times RIP dad thanks Michelle for such a wonderful story my friend 😊❤😊😊😊😊😊
Had to put in that detail! What lovely memories-- I'm glad they conjured them. 💜
The Smoky Mountains are so beautiful! I haven’t been there is a long while, but your story captured them beautifully❤️
Thank you! 🥰
This is one of my favorites also. I LOVE the cabin stories 😍 ❤️ Thank you 😊
I'm so glad you enjoy this one! Every time I create a cabin story I feel like it's another special getaway I get to visit.
Let the gentle lullaby of the night soothe everyone's weary souls. Embrace the darkness, for it holds the promise of a brighter tomorrow.
Sweet dreams.☺✨🌜💞😴🌟💞🌟💤
Dream away!

Can't wait for this story. I'm gonna find this educational but exciting at the same, because the Appalachians were around the smoky mountains. Thank you so much Michelle for sharing this story for us to enjoy, love you lots ❤❤❤❤
I sometimes try to make these stories a bit of both! Or inspire vacations, if only in our imagination. Sweet dreams! 💜
