Elinor and Marianne join their brother and sister-in-law for a night out, much to Fanny's chagrin. For Elinor, it's a chance to become acquainted with the one remaining member of the Ferrars family whom she hasn't already met, Edward and Fanny's brother, Robert Ferrars. Unfortunately, he's everything Elinor expected him to be. Meanwhile, Mr. John Dashwood is struck with the idea that he should invite his sisters to stay with him -- an idea that Fanny promptly shuts down by inviting the Steele sisters to visit instead. The Ferrars siblings may continue to disappoint the Dashwoods, but their story will be anything but a disappointment, as it calms you into a night of tranquil and restful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

The newly-engaged Mr. Elton has returned to Highbury, and as a young person in an interesting situation, he is very kindly spoken of. That's unfortunate for Harriet, who is unable to be talked out of love as easily as she was talked into it. Though Emma is sure that Miss Augusta Hawkins won't hold a candle to her dear Miss Smith, that won't stop the immediate problem of Harriet continuing to pine for her lost love. A visit to the Martins might help, and though Emma feels a little guilty for making it a formal visit, she does have to look out for her friend's reputation. As Highbury prepares for the arrival of a new bride in this week's Friday Favorites, let their story help you prepare for the arrival of another night of gentle slumber. -----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

After the unpleasant dinner with Mrs. Ferrars, Elinor finds herself almost grateful that she's not the one engaged to Edward. But Lucy Steele had a thoroughly different experience, and she's called on her "dear friend Elinor" to gloat about how much Mrs. Ferrars and Fanny liked her. While she's there, the two women receive another visitor: none other than Edward Ferrars himself. It's supremely awkward, made even more so when Marianne joins them and addresses Edward with sisterly warmth. Tonight, Edward, Lucy, and Elinor would all rather be anywhere else but here -- but their discomfort will be the source of your comfort, as tonight's story soothes you into a night of warm and relaxing sleep. -----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

In this solo episode of Moving To Oneness, Meilin speaks from the powerful island of Corsica, where wind, water, stone, sun, birds, and ancient songs become living teachers. Standing near Bonifacio, with Sardinia in the distance, she invites you to listen with her to the wisdom of the island — its limestone rocks, clear salt water, olive and pine trees, resilient people, and the sound of Corsican songs carrying history, strength, and tenderness. Together you explore how the ocean can embrace and remember us, how the wind can teach us to play and stay flexible, how the sun warms and awakens our skin, and how stone shows us both strength and softness. This episode is an invitation to connect with water, speak with the elements, set clear intentions, and feel how energy moves through your body from Earth to sky and sky to Earth. Corsica reminds us to stand like the rocks in the sea: shaped by time, touched by wind and water, yet still present in our beauty. May this episode support you in saying yes to yourself again, remembering your own ancient strength, and allowing your light, love, ideas, and presence to move into the world. ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~You are invited to bring your wisdom and powerful energy over to our Fb group where you can share it with us and others.

Mr. Knightley is at Hartfield, and he has exciting news, but before he can reveal it, Miss Bates arrives and spills the beans: Mr. Elton is engaged. After four weeks in Bath, he has met a Miss Hawkins, and they are going to be married. Miss Bates is delighted at the prospect of a new neighbor in Highbury, while Emma is concerned about Harriet (and annoyed at Jane Fairfax's muted reaction to the news). But Harriet's attention is focused elsewhere, on a chance encounter with Mr. Martin, at least until Emma redirects her in a more appropriate direction. This week's Friday Favorites is big news for Highbury, and it's just the kind of news that will fill your mind and help you relax into a night of soft and peaceful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

When Fanny Dashwood finally meets Lady Middleton, it's a match made in heaven, and Fanny even likes Mrs. Jennings -- she likes them all so much that she invites them all to dine with her at their London home. The Miss Steeles are staying with the Middletons, so they'll be joining for dinner too, as will Fanny's formidable mother, Mrs. Ferrars. Fanny and Mrs. Ferrars warm to Lucy Steele's unique charms, while remaining cold towards Elinor, a fact that almost amuses her. But it doesn't amuse Marianne, who only sees their unbearable rudeness and has no choice but to stick up for her sister. All the while, John Dashwood is talking up Elinor to Colonel Brandon, hoping to secure a match between the two. It's a dinner full of misguided assumptions, and while our characters may be wrongheaded, their story is just right to help you into a night of restful and restorative sleep. -----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

The much-discussed Jane Fairfax has arrived in Highbury, and Emma is determined to have a good opinion of her. Sure, everyone always assumes Jane and Emma are close because of their similar ages, and yes, Jane is superior at playing the piano, but she is very elegant, and Emma highly values elegance. Moreover, Jane's situation as an orphan destined to a life of governessing is truly pitiable. Emma's goodwill lasts for exactly one meeting before Jane's reserve sours her again -- Jane won't even reveal details about her meeting with the elusive Frank Churchill, which is unforgivable. This week's Friday Favorites brings another key character into the world of Highbury, and as it does, let it help you move from the waking world into the sleeping one as you drift into warm and gentle slumber. -----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Marianne finally agrees to go out of the house with Elinor. On their shopping trip, they are surprised to run into none other than their older brother, John Dashwood. He is genuinely happy to see his sisters, and calls on them at Mrs. Jennings's house the next day (without his wife Fanny, of course). After meeting all of their new acquaintances, John Dashwood is pleased to see that they all appear to be much richer and more elegant than he was expecting. He even thinks that Colonel Brandon has eyes for Elinor, and that Mrs. Jennings may be fond enough of Elinor and Marianne to leave them money in her will. After all, John's financial demands are so great that he needs to be sure that someone will take care of his sisters. With everyone in town, it's a family reunion of sorts for the Dashwoods, and the perfect occasion to help you relax and fall into a night of peaceful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

After another morning of hearing Harriet pine over Mr. Elton, Emma decides to change up their morning routine and call on the Bateses. While Mrs. and Miss Bates aren't Emma's favorites, she judges the visit to be better than Harriet's endless moping. Over tea, Emma learns that Miss Bates's niece, Jane Fairfax, will be on her way to Highbury very soon, for an extended stay of three months. The conversation with Miss Bates is winding and tedious -- a bore for Emma, but perfect for falling asleep. So settle in with this week's Friday Favorites and let the loquacious and long-winded Miss Bates be your companion as you make your way into another night of soft and restful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

With the truth about Willoughby's character now known, Marianne is adjusting to her new normal, and slowly healing -- she is even voluntarily speaking to Colonel Brandon. On the advice of their mother, Elinor and Marianne are remaining in London for a few more weeks to enjoy the change of scenery. The extended visit will allow them to see their brother and sister-in-law, and, unfortunately, also the Miss Steeles, who have just arrived in town. As the Dashwood sisters' time in London enters its next phase, let it help you enter the next phase of your evening as you drift into restful and restorative sleep. -----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Frank Churchill is not coming to Highbury. After all of Mr. Weston's excitement about his son's visit, Frank ended up postponing his plans. While Emma is too distracted to be too disappointed, when Mr. Knightley expresses critical opinion, she still feels compelled to defend Mr. Churchill. The resulting debate between the two is illustrative of both of their characters, and it's a perfect vignette of Austen's comfortable, familiar banter. This week's Friday Favorites will help you relax as you end your day and fall into a night of warm and gentle sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

As Marianne continues to recover from the sudden end of her relationship with Willoughby, Elinor receives a visit from Colonel Brandon, who feels compelled to share a history that he hopes will help Marianne get over her pain. After the tragic downfall and death of Colonel Brandon's first love, he took on her daughter as his ward. Last fall, he learned that this young girl had been seduced and deserted, and the culprit was none other than Willoughby. While the story isn't exactly comforting, Colonel Brandon hopes it will help Marianne understand Willougby's true character. Elinor is thoroughly shocked, but also grateful to Colonel Brandon for sharing this troubling history. It's a long and sordid tale, so let yourself get lost in the story as it carries you off into a night of deep and restful slumber. -----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Mr. Elton's unexpected proposal has Emma reeling, and she needs to take time to reflect. Emma knows that his supposed feelings are more for Miss Woodhouse's status, rather than true love for her; and she realizes that it was an error for her to take such an active role in pushing Harriet towards him. Luckily, the weather prevents her from going to church and seeing Mr. Elton at Christmas, and he soon leaves Highbury for Bath. All that is left now is for Emma to share the news with Harriet, and comfort her as best she can. This week's Friday Favorites is one of quiet reflection, so let it help you quiet your mind and fall into a night of soft and restorative sleep. -----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Wu Zhuoling (吴卓玲) https://soundcloud.com/zhuoling_wu Music Producer | Live Electronic Artist | DJ | Co-founder of Small Projects Records A chameleonic pioneer at the forefront of China's live electronic counterculture, Wu Zhuoling has built a reputation for deeply immersive performances and genre-defying sound. Performing exclusively with hardware, she creates live sets that guide audiences through a fluid sonic journey - from soothing ambient and experimental downtempo to soulful electronica, progressive IDM, and driving leftfield techno. Her music reflects a distinct artistic identity shaped by her cultural roots and over twenty years of production experience. Before turning to electronic music, Zhuoling was a folk singer and fronted a trip-hop band in the 2000s, an influence still felt in her melodic sensibility and lyrical story-telling. In her current electronic work, she weaves intricate sound design and rhythmic precision with organic warmth, crafting sonic landscapes that feel both progressive and deeply human. Zhuoling has performed extensively across China's major clubs, live houses and festivals, as well as at art exhibitions, fashion shows, audiovisual showcases, and open-air venues set against natural landscapes. Her international footprint continues to expand, with tours in New Zealand (2024) and the United States (2025), alongside performances in the Netherlands, Germany, and Japan. Her standing in the Chinese electronic scene is reflected by being invited as support act for the China tours of several renowned international artists such as Max Cooper (2024), Rival Consoles (2026) and Bonobo (2026). Her acclaimed releases - Another Shore (2022, LP), Uncharted (2023, EP), Reverie (2024, LP) and Uncharted II (2026, EP) - mark her evolution as one of China's most distinctive voices in live electronic music.

Marianne is still distraught over Willoughby's betrayal, especially after learning that he is to marry a Miss Grey, who has fifty thousand pounds. Mrs. Jennings, concerned for her young friend, is showing kindness the only way she knows how -- with good food, good wine, and cards -- but it's not enough to soothe Marianne's broken heart. To Mrs. Jennings, this is the perfect opportunity for Colonel Brandon to make his move, but his first response to hearing the news is thoughtfulness, not happiness. Time may heal all wounds, but right now, they are far too fresh. As everyone begins to adjust to this new reality, let their story help you adjust from day to night as you fall into gentle and relaxing sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

The Christmas party at Randalls is interrupted by the news that it has begun to snow, putting the guests in a flutter about how to get home. In the commotion, Emma and Mr. Elton end up in a carriage alone together, allowing Mr. Elton the perfect opportunity to declare his feelings, not for Harriet, but for Emma! She is aghast; and once Mr. Elton discovers that Emma thought he was in love with Miss Smith, he is shocked too, making the rest of their ride home rather awkward. While the interesting silence unfortunately doesn't have the meaning Mr. Elton hoped, the familiar story in this week's Friday Favorites will help silence your worries and help you into a night of warm and peaceful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Legacy games have probably had their golden days. They were something new that hadn't been done before in our hobby. They promised a unique experience of a game that would change as you played it. Not only that, the change would be permanent, requiring you not to only remove components, but actually destroy them, or put stickers into the rulebook, onto the main game board or otherwise apply them to make an irreversible change to the game. However, as exciting as the idea was, it never sat comfortably with me. In this article, I want to talk about this in more detail.Read the full article here: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2026/04/28/throwaway-legacy-legacy-games-as-a-symbol-of-our-throwaway-society-topic-discussion/Useful LinksRisk Legacy: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/105134/risk-legacyPandemic Legacy: Season 1: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/161936/pandemic-legacy-season-1Dicebreaker article about the inspiration behind Risk Legacy: https://www.dicebreaker.com/series/risk-legacy/news/risk-legacy-inspired-by-clueThe Waste Makers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Waste_MakersOath: Chronicles of Empire and Exile review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2021/11/27/oath-chronicles-of-empire-and-exile-saturday-review/Sleeping Gods review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2021/03/27/sleeping-gods-saturday-review/MusicIntro Music: Bomber (Sting) by Riot (https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/)Music: "Quiet", "Reverie" and "Success" by AShamaluevMusic.Website: https://www.ashamaluevmusic.comSupportIf you want to support this podcast financially, please check out the links below:Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/TabletopGamesBlogPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/tabletopgamesblogWebsite: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/support/(Photo by Frames For Your Heart on Unsplash)
Willoughby's callous behavior towards Marianne has left the Dashwood sisters shocked, and the next morning, they receive even worse news. A letter from Willoughby confirms he is attached to another woman, and he has sent back all of Marianne's notes and her lock of hair. The rejection is so painful that Marianne can barely leave her bed, and even Elinor is distraught. Marianne reveals to Elinor that she and Willoughby were never engaged, but she is certain that he did love her. How will Marianne ever move forward from this heartbreak? As she reels from the shock of this development, let her story accompany into a night of deep and restful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

As a bilingual artist, Lolo Zouaï uses both English and French on her new album Reverie. Sometimes it's because the meaning of a word in one language is more precise for the song, while other times the sound of the word fits the melody better. We take a deep dive into Zouaï's songwriting process and discuss why she's not good at late-night writing sessions, why the bathroom is a great place to get rid of writer's block, and why she's much more productive when working on many things at once.

Mr. Elton is still acting too familiar for Emma's taste, but she's trying to avoid it, especially since there's tempting talk of Mr. Weston's son, Frank Churchill, finally coming to visit Highbury.

Elinor and Marianne accompany Lady Middleton to a party, where they are finally reunited with the elusive Willoughby. But what should be a happy moment of reunion is instead a moment of shock and confusion. Willoughby barely acknowledges Marianne, and certainly does not seem to return her affection. Neither Elinor nor Marianne understand what has caused so material a change, and Marianne is so shocked that she can barely keep her wits about her. They make their way home to contemplate what might have happened, and as they do, let the latest chapter in their story help you contemplate your evening as you settle in for another night of restful and restorative slumber.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Hello, Beautiful...I'm so grateful you're here with me. Relax deeply with Tranquil Reverie: A Guided Journey to Deep Sleep, a soothing guided sleep meditation from the Meditation for Sleep Stories Podcast.
An intimate party has been invited to join the Westons for Christmas at Randalls, and Emma is delighted. It's the perfect opportunity for Harriet and Mr. Elton to get closer. Only, there's a problem: Harriet is unable to attend because of a sore throat, and Mr. Elton...doesn't seem that upset about it? In fact, Emma's brother-in-law John Knightley seems convinced that Mr. Elton's affections are directed toward Emma. Naturally, he doesn't know as much as she does about the ways of love. Nonetheless, she's on alert as they make their way to Randalls for what is sure to be an eventful evening. As they, do let our latest Friday Favorites take you on your own journey, as the familiar story helps you fall into a night of deep and gentle sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

The Dashwoods' visit to London continues, and Marianne is still writing to Willoughby and desperately awaiting his reply. Yet, he is nowhere to be seen. There's still time for socialization with plenty of their old friends, from the Middletons to the Palmers to Colonel Brandon. Elinor really feels for Colonel Brandon; she can see his pain, even as he tries to wish Marianne well. In fact, he often seems like he wants to tell her more, and leaves their latest visit with a cryptic comment hoping that Willougby may endeavour to deserve Marianne. As Elinor and Marianne continue to navigate the complexities of their emotions in London, let their story help you navigate your way into a night of soft and relaxing sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

In this episode, Britten LaRue is joined by TMT Alums Bee Phillips and Patrick Dommermuth to explore the lived difference between the Mystic and the Magician, not as fixed identities, but as two complementary ways of moving through desire, time, and co-creation. Together they tease out images that make the distinction felt, name how each archetype relates to will vs surrender, and reflect on how Britten's containers (Emergence Astrology and The Magician's Table) invite different kinds of intimacy, pressure, and self-discovery in community. Topics They Cover: How Patrick and Bee found Britten's work including the push-pull of malefic medicine, attraction and aversion, and saying yes to both Emergence Astrology and The Magician's Table The felt difference between the Mystic and the Magician: surrender vs will, magnetism vs dynamism, receptivity vs concentrated desire Images that make the archetypes embodied: outer space and comet, heart and blood, air/fire vs earth/water, purification by water vs purification by flame Community as a mirror and medicine: being seen, restoring parts that once felt unsafe, and discovering yourself through others' witnessing Time as an archetypal experience: Mystic time as dissolving and nonlinear versus Magician time as intensified, Saturnian, and pressure-based Why The Magician's Table structure (timers, attendance, deadlines, constraint) can dissolve imposter syndrome and crystallize craft, while Emergence Astrology builds the inner ground and skill set THE DOORS TO THE 2026 MAGICIAN'S TABLE ARE NOW OPEN!
