My name's Thomas, and I'm your host. Thank you so much for joining me this evening. Tonight, we're beginning a multi-part series exploring the seven wonders of the ancient world. We'll start by visiting the Great Pyramid of Giza, the oldest and most famous of these historic monuments. Out of all seven wonders, this ancient tomb is the only one to remain mostly intact.
It continues to astound the likes of archaeologists and engineers, as well as millions of tourists who visit each year. A big thank you to Joe Steer for writing this one, which I have the pleasure of reading. And there will be six more to enjoy over the coming months. So let's take a moment to get comfy and settled, as we always do here, before our story begins.
Ensure you're lying in a position that feels supportive and comfortable. And enjoy a few deep, slow breaths, allowing your body and mind to relax more and more with each passing moment. If you're feeling at all anxious about your sleep, perhaps if you've been struggling a bit with it lately, just understand that you are not alone.
There are many thousands of people listening to this show, and millions of others around the world trying to improve their own sleep. Having struggled with sleep my entire life, I've always tried to approach these anxieties with softness and reassurance.
