The Girl Who Drew the Moon's Breath

ERIK IRELAND
About this episode

A young girl sets out on a quiet journey to capture something invisible: the feeling of the moon’s breath, and in the process, she discovers a deeper truth about presence and who we really are. This mindful bedtime story gently explores creativity, stillness, and the unseen mystery that lives beneath our thoughts.
