I Can't Sleep: Relaxing Facts to Fall Asleep To

Lakes | Can’t Sleep? Dive Beneath the Surface

October 28, 2026·30 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Lakes can form in some surprisingly dramatic ways for bodies of water that mostly just sit there. In this episode, you’ll hear how glaciers, shifting tectonic plates, and volcanic activity create lakes of all shapes and sizes. We’ll also get into lake ecosystems, how water moves and circulates beneath the surface, and why some lakes end up unusually salty. It’s steady and consistent, with no whispering and no sudden changes, just enough to give your mind something to follow as you wind down. Happy sleeping! — Thanks to Fitnexa for supporting the show.
