Relaxing Nature Sounds

Cozy Cabin Fire | 1 Hour

Picture yourself sitting in a chair so comfortable you can hardly keep your eyes open. The wind whistles outside. The fire on the hearth crackles. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the fire 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:
I made this for Maks. He found me on Insta and said my calming campfire had been nice after a tough week. So, here’s a new fire one. I hope it’s one brings everyone happiness and calmness in the new year.

Seaside Sunset (For Sleep) | 1 Hour

Picture yourself standing on a rocky coastline. The sea crashes against the wet stones. The sun sits on the horizon. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the sea 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:
Since these soundscapes are usually without language there are people all over the world listening to them. People from El Salvador to Estonia are tuning-in at the same time. It amazes me that a series of soundscapes I created to help me fall asleep has now been downloaded over three million times. I hope this new seaside one brings you happiness and calmness.

Underwater Whale Song | 1 Hour

Picture yourself diving under the sea. The blue water envelopes you like a blanket. In the distance the loneliest whale in the ocean calls out to you. Relax and close your eyes. Let the song of the whale pull away your anxiety. Focus on the soothing sounds under the sea. Your heart rate slows. Everything is calm and serene.
Why I made this soundscape:
I’ve always loved aquariums. When you stand near the big tanks you feel like you’re under the sea. A few months ago I heard kids could have camp like sleepovers in the aquarium near where I used to live. I wish they had that when I was growing up. Anyways, this is what I think it sounds like if you have a sleepover with a whale.
I hope by listening you find happiness and calmness.
 

Whale Song & Lady Zen | 15 Min Reflection

Picture yourself diving under the sea. The blue water envelopes you like a blanket. In the distance the loneliest whale in the ocean calls out to you. Close your eyes and listen. Reflect on the week behind you. Reflect on the day ahead of you. Focus on the soothing sounds under the sea. Your heart rate slows. Everything is calm and serene.
 
Why I made this soundscape:
I’ve been a fan of Lady Zen’s music for a number of years. A couple of weeks ago she asked if I’d like to create a soundscape with her. I happened to be making this whale one and played it for her. “I like how it feel like the water is covering you like a blanket,” she said.
This is the first of many guided reflections we are going to create together over the next few months. Be on the lookout for guided reflections for each of the four elements.

Japanese Garden | 1 Hour

Picture yourself strolling through a garden in autumn. You happen upon a stream splashing over stones. A red leaf falls from a tree, slipping into the water. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the stream 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:
A screensaver came up on my PC showing a rounded red bridge over a stream. It looked so foreign and far away. I thought, “I want to be there today.” So, I created a soundscape that sounded like what I saw.
I hope by listening to the bamboo fountain soundscape you find happiness and calmness.

Japanese Garden With Chimes | 20 Min Reflection

Picture yourself sitting in a garden in autumn. A stream splashes over stones. A red leaf falls from a tree, slipping into the water. A monk strikes a crystal bowl with a mallet. Close your eyes and listen. Reflect on the week behind you. Reflect on the day ahead of you. Focus on the humming sound of nature. Your heart rate slows. Everything is calm and serene.

Calming Crackling Campfire (For Sleep) | Eight Hours

Picture yourself lying next to a campfire. Crickets chirp as night falls. 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.
Why I made this soundscape:
I suppose my favorite memory of a campfire is when we celebrated Guy Fawkes Night by building a large bonfire. We were in western England near the welsh border. And we were having a bit of a fancy dress party with finger food and cider. Me and the other boys were asked to shoot off a box of fireworks. By that point in the evening we were all a bit tipsy. But somehow we managed to give the kids a good show. When we were done I grabbed the empty box. For some reason I was sure there were no more projectiles in it. I threw the box on the fire. As I marched away fireworks started shooting out of the bonfire. We all ran and dove on to the ground.
This Crackling Campfire Soundscape is a lot more soothing than that night. I hope by listening to it you find happiness and calmness.
 

Summer Rain Storm (For Sleep) | Eight Hours

Picture yourself standing in the rain. The water droplets run down your face. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the rain pull away your anxiety. Focus on the sound, sometimes louder, sometimes softer. Your heart rate slows. Everything is calm and serene.
Why I made this podcast:
It’s rainy season again. The daily deluge cools everything off here in San Miguel. Around this time of year I’m always reminded of my first few months in town. We went to a taco cart and ordered up some gringas de pastor. The rain started. Our backs began to get soaked. Soon our shoes were filled with rain water. But it didn’t matter. As long as we stayed under the awning our tacos couldn’t get wet.
I hope by listening to it you find happiness and calmness.
