Boring Books for Bedtime Readings to Help You Sleep

Let's sketch our way to sleep with more from this guide to drawing and painting. This time, more on the science side, including vision, the intrinsic link between touch and sight, why kids draw the way they draw, and the important of art education for everyone. Concur!

Let's relax with more from this rather questionable 17th century guide to medicinal plants. This time, herbs to rid yourself of fleas, cure gout, eliminate the French pox, and treat pretty much every ailment you can think of through the power of the purgative. Do not recommend!
VERY BIG NOTE: As always with these old "medicinal" works, do not follow or rely on anything you hear in this podcast. Many of these herbs are, in fact, very bad for you. This reading is merely to bore and/or amuse, not inform.

Let's sit up straight and get sleepy with more from this essential guide to respectful, refined living. This time, treating servants humanely, announcing names, and hosting all manner of tea parties, including what can and can't be served before tipping into reception territory. The line between fun and formal is ever so fine!

Let's saw some sleepy wood with more from this guide to getting crafty. This time, we finish fitting out our workshop with custom benches, cabinets and helpful devices, store our tools neatly, and eschew the useless dazzle of fancy toolchests. Efficiency, and the amateur's pocketbook, demand simplicity.
Lee Rosevere, composer of much of the background music on this podcast, has gifted us with a new work called "Timeless." So lovely! So chill! If you're interested in discovering more of his music (without me babbling over it), check out: https://leerosevere.bandcamp.com

Let's relax to the story of sleeping places with more from this charming history of the country inn. This time, churches as a place to rest and drink heartily, the romance of the great coaching inns, ale's healthful benefits, and unseemly behavior for a boozy barbershop. Cheers!
