When Women Partied in Ancient Greece (More Than Men!) | Boring History For Sleep
Slip past the city walls of classical Athens and into a three-day, women-only festival the historians couldn’t see and the men weren’t allowed to enter. This immersive, sleep-friendly documentary drops you inside Thesmophoria—a sacred, rowdy, deeply emotional celebration for Demeter and Persephone—where grief becomes ritual, laughter becomes medicine, and power returns to the women who kept the city alive. Expect moonlit chants, fasting and memory work, sacred “compost,” ritual roasts, dancing, and quiet acts of rebellion—all told in a soothing, cinematic second-person style. — 🎧 Best experienced with headphones and dim lighting.
