Er, the title pretty much explains. My wife listens to podcasts and falls asleep to them but I can’t not listen to a human voice so I listen to (ideally instrumental) music.

Anyone else? If so, what do you put on to drift away to?

    I can’t with music. I put a Scholar’s Lore video on youtube and I’m sleeping within 5 minutes even when I’m not trying to fall asleep.

    Hammock, psychedelic trance music, or there is a lucid dreaming playlist on YouTube Music I like.

    ETA “Psybient”, there used to be a perfect playlist called psybient, that may work well as a search term to find that downbeat psychedelic trance music.

    No way could I fall asleep to a podcast, but my husband plays Alan Watts explaining meditation, and that I sure can. Maybe it would be a middle ground for y’all - a guided meditation?

      I declare that from now on Baby Shark is defined as mellow. Goodnight.

      Bonus nightmare points: Kars4kidz is mellow too, by the way.
