About this episode
Relax with calm, bedtime reading to help you drift into a peaceful sleep and ease insomnia. In this episode we explore whiskers—special tactile hairs (vibrissae) many mammals have—and how they work to let animals feel their surroundings, hunt, and avoid danger. You’ll learn about the anatomy of whiskers, how they move, and why they’re different from regular fur. Benjamin’s voice will guide you softly as you discover facts without any whispering or hypnosis. Great for restless nights, curious minds, and finding calm. Press play and let yourself drift off. Happy sleeping!
