Mrs. Sweet Dreams: Leo the Lion Guided Meditation Bedtime Story for Children

In this heartwarming guided meditation bedtime story, Mrs. Sweet Dreams tells a peaceful folktale from the stars — the story of Leo the Lion, the brave constellation, and a curious little zebra calf who learns the true meaning of courage under the glowing night sky.

When the zebra gets lost in the tall golden grass, Leo appears to gently guide the young one home. Through deep breathing, calm visualization, and star-filled wonder, children will discover that bravery isn’t about being loud or fierce — it’s about staying kind, steady, and hopeful, even when things feel dark or uncertain.
