Boring History for Sleep | WEIRD Food Habits of Medieval People

Ease into rest tonight with a slow journey into the past. This long-form sleep story takes you inside the everyday life of medieval peasants — not knights, castles, or royalty, but the real people who toiled, struggled, and endured in a world far harsher than our own. From smoky huts and endless work in the fields to simple meals of bread and pottage, you’ll explore what life was truly like for those who lived centuries ago. Set against the gentle sound of a fireplace and a dark screen for undisturbed sleep, this two-hour video blends calm storytelling with rich historical detail. Perfect for bedtime listening, relaxation, or drifting into meditation, let the rhythm of the narrative and the soft crackle of fire carry you into a deep, peaceful night’s sleep.
