Rushing River (No Frogs For Sleep) | One Hour
Wednesday Sep 01, 2021
Wednesday Sep 01, 2021
Picture yourself lying in a field next a rushing river. The sky reflects in the water. A bird calls. The frogs answer. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the river pull away your anxiety. Focus on the sound of the water. Your heart rate slows. Everything is calm and serene.
Why I made this soundscape:
I haven’t been sleeping this week. I find myself up at 2:00 AM flipping through Netflix. The other night I finally did fall asleep and I had a dream. I was asking my father for money and he took out a chart showing how much money he had given me over the years. I woke up in a sweat and went downstairs to heat up some soup. So, I made this river soundscape to see if it would help.
I hope by listening to it you find happiness and calmness.

Costa Rica Rain Storm (No Birds For Sleep) | One Hour
Tuesday Aug 24, 2021
Tuesday Aug 24, 2021
Picture yourself lying on a deck overlooking a dense forest. The clouds darken. The birds fly down to shelter. Rain falls from the sky. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the rain storm pull away your anxiety. Focus on the sound of the tropical rain. Your heart rate slows. Everything is calm and serene.
Why I made this soundscape:
The rain storm sounds have become my favorite over the last month. Maybe because it’s rainy season here in Mexico. Still, there’s only so many times you can listen to the same storm. So here are two new ones. One has tropical birds and a more gentle rain. The one for sleep has no birds and the rain comes down much more constant.
I hope by listening to it you find happiness and calmness.

Flickering Fire by Ocean Seaside (No Birds For Sleep) | One Hour
Wednesday Aug 11, 2021
Wednesday Aug 11, 2021
Picture yourself lying on the seaside. The fire warms your face. The ocean waves crash in the distance. The fire crackles and pops. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the campfire pull away your anxiety. Focus on the soothing sound of nature. Your heart rate slows. Everything is calm and serene.
This version has no birds and more constant waves for better sleep.
Why I made this soundscape:
We used to go down to Asilomar Beach when I was a teenager. In the evening we’d get a bonfire going. Someone would usually have a six pack of beer that we somehow shared between eight people. I don’t think you can do any of that any more. It’s against the law to build a bonfire these days and I doubt the police let teenagers split a sixer. I recall being excited one of those evenings. A girl I liked was coming. She’d told me she was taking anthropology over at the junior college. I had lied and told her I was doing the same. So, there may have been beer and bonfires, but it was more like a study date. It never worked out with the girl, but I did end up taking a semester of anthropology.
This Flickering Fire by Ocean Seaside Soundscape is a replica of that place. I hope by listening to it you find the happiness and calmness I felt there.

Dreamy Waterfall (No Birds For Sleep) | One Hour
Tuesday Aug 03, 2021
Tuesday Aug 03, 2021
Picture yourself lying on a stone covered in thick moss. A cascading waterfall streams down into a green pool. The mist of the water caresses your face. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the waterfall pull away your anxiety. Focus on the soothing sound of nature. Your heart rate slows. Everything is calm and serene.
Why I made this soundscape:
We used to go camping every other summer. We’d make the trek out to Yosemite and hike up to the falls. I was around eight years old. I remember one morning I got up early and while my dad rummaged around with the camping stove I played with a big, red ball. About thirty feet away I could see this man sitting in the lotus position facing the falls in the distance. I continued bouncing my ball. After about ten minutes the man got up, stalked up to my father, and said, “You mind shutting up your kid. Can’t you see I’m trying to meditate?”
This Waterfall Soundscape is a lot more soothing than that guy was. I hope by listening to it you find happiness and calmness.
