Australian Aboriginal Mythology - The Dreaming (ASMR Stories for Sleep)

In this soft spoken talk, I tell you stories from a body of myths and legends shared by different Australian Aboriginal People: the Dreaming, or Dreamtime. Australian Aboriginals are thought to have some of the oldest continuous cultures in the world, since they remained undisturbed in Australia for tens of thousands of years. Their cultures radiated and diverged across the island, with different language groups and mythologies. We explore myths that are widespread among them, like the Rainbow Serpent, and others that are local, tied to local geography or a particular people.
