Relaxing Nature Sounds

Artic Sea Cliff (No Birds For Sleep) | One Hour

Picture yourself lying in the snow. The ocean crashes in the distance. Ice bobs on the water. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the artic pull away your anxiety. Focus on the sound of the water and ice. Your heart rate slows. Everything is calm and serene.
Why I made this soundscape:
I once traveled to the North Sea. Even though it was the middle of summer a cold wind blew down and across the water. My friends undressed down to their skivvies and the dove into the sea. I lay down on my beach towel while wearing a heavy parka and beanie. My friends ran out of the water shivering. This soundscape may be a bit north of where I was, but I think it invokes the happiness I had that day.
I hope by listening to it you find happiness and calmness.

Hawaiian Coqui Frogs & Rain | One Hour

Picture yourself lying in bed and gazing out the open window. The rain comes down gently. In the distance coqui frogs sing in the eucalyptus forest. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the rain 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:
Truthfully, these frogs don’t help me sleep. But I know folks from Hawaii and Puerto Rico love the coqui frogs. So, I’m putting them up for those people who find the frog song a reminder of home. I hope by listening to it you find happiness and calmness.

Rushing River (No Frogs For Sleep) | One Hour

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

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

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.
