Whoohoo a new story and not a romantic one! Thank you!!

[CozyDreamTales-eosl]

These tales are like whispers of comfort in the darkness, gently coaxing me into a restful state. Forever grateful for this oasis of calm. 🌌😌

[jilllangman]

Great stories, but im struggling with the breathy voice. You have a pleasant voice, with clear diction and that’s enough.

[scheinchen]

Dear Lord .. this voice. Thank you 🙏 😴 💤

[kikimoses]

Yeah! Been waiting for a new one by Chris!

[CozyDreamTales-eosl]

Listening to these tales feels like being cradled in a soft blanket of relaxation. Truly a gift at the end of the day! 🎁🛌

A little known fact about the 12 labors of Heracles is that they are a step by step progression of physical transformations that occur to practitioners on the spiritual path.
Whenever someone starts to consistently cultivate spiritual practice in a devoted way, there are definite physical changes that will occur to their body. These physical transformations, called 'gong fu' in the eastern spiritual schools, are non denominational signposts of spiritual progress. If you cultivate spiritual practice sufficiently then these phenomena will arise. If don't practice sufficiently then they simply won't appear.
These purification phenomena are totally non sectarian and non denominational. They include such things as the awakening of kundalini (yang chi) within the body, the opening of the chakras and purification of the body's energy channels, hormonal transformations, the calming of consciousness and experience of refined mental states described as 'emptiness', and various other mental and physical phenomena.
For instance, his first labor was conquering the powerful Nemean lion. This represents sexual urges and is the initial stage for positive change and the awakening of kundalini. You'll see an animal or it's skin in many pictures of deity's which signifies that advancement. Because as humans we possess a dual nature of both heaven and earth, through our actions and behaviour we can choose to accentuate our divine nature or our animalistic nature. If a person cultivates spirituality then he can reach the divine, but he can also choose to drop into the carnal realm of animal passions and form excessive attachment to sensation. Countless spiritual traditions teach this basic principle.
My source is a book by William Bodri called, "The Little Book Of Hercules - The Physical Aspects Of The Spiritual Path". Thank you very much for your bedtime stories. They are very relaxing.

Loving this story. Still have no idea how it ends tho coz I always fall asleep 😴

[TK-qzpc]

As usual, great story sir.

What a legend: travelled on the Argo, sacked Troy with just a few men a generation(?)before the Achaeans launched their ships, smashed the games, and defeated entire armies.

It's a pity the grizzly way he met his sad end though.
Also, it's interesting to remember the part his poison bows had to play later


Least his immortal part ascended to be with the pantheon at Olympus.

[OKCShiningOn]

Thank you!! I'm cozy with tea. Ready for this relaxation session.

[orixarise]

[filiptodorovic]

Tried to relax but i kinda paniced waiting for the story to start. Felt like an eternity. Nice calming voice tho.

[shadowmoon]

I thought Nemean Lion is not the first labor

[footballgab]

You should do one of Anubis. Your stories are great!

[azmaininkiyad]

Don't remember nothing about the story XD so I came back

[KLG]

I thought Hercules came from Herculaneum near Pompeii in Italy.
