Fall Asleep With The Shipping News
This has been helping people get to sleep for over 100 years. This is the shipping news and is a tradition in the United Kingdom. It's hard to describe, but there is something about the monotony and rhythm of the shipping news that is like an adult lullaby. Insomnia and tinnitus sufferers swear by it. I think you are going to love it.

Welcome to the Shipping News.
To fully enjoy this experience,
Please get yourself in a lying down position.
Take a moment to take a deep breath in and out.
Once again,
Deep breath in and as you exhale,
Let go of the day that you've had and just allow yourself to enjoy the dulcet tones of my voice.
If you need any further help with your tinnitus,
There's an entire course on the subject called Sleep Tight with Tinnitus.
I hope to see you there.
