The Secret World of Victorian Marriages | Boring History For Sleep

If you’re looking to drift into sleep, this story will carry you there with its slow, measured rhythm. But it also offers something more—an unsettling journey into a Victorian workhouse dormitory, where life was harsher than fiction. As you listen, you’ll not only find your mind relaxing into rest, but you’ll also gain a window into a hidden side of history: the routines, punishments, and quiet acts of resistance that defined survival inside those walls. By the end, you’ll not only be calmer, but you’ll also walk away with a deeper understanding of how the poor were treated in nineteenth-century Britain, and why so many of their voices were almost erased. #boringhistoryforsleep #history #sleep #storiesforsleep #sleepandhistory -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Timestamps 00:00 - Arrival and the First Night 37:57 - Labor, Inspections, and Fading Hope 1:13:46 - Secrets of the Walls and the Women’s Wing 1:48:02 - The Vault of Memory and Silent Resistance --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sources 1.
