Picture yourself hiking through an ice tunnel. The icicles slowly melt and drip off the glacier walls. A small stream trickles through the tunnel. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the melting ice 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 was driving up to Andorra one spring. (Who would have thought there was a country between France and Spain?) The road weaved along the side of a snowy mountain. Icicles were melting and forming a sheet of ice that made it look like I was driving through an ice tunnel. It was one of the most beautiful scenes I’d seen. This soundscape is based on that morning.

Relaxing Nature Sounds has been hard at work creating a new fictional audio-drama, Flies In The Jar.

Flies in the Jar includes themes and dialogue that are not suitable for children.

Picture yourself lying on the beach as ocean waves crash. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the sea pull away your anxiety. Focus on the sound of the ocean. Your heart rate slows. Everything is calm and serene.

Why I made this soundscape.

Lately, I've been living in the studio on the front of the house while they do construction on the roof of my bedroom. I've found myself waking up several times in the night. I thought trying out eight hour versions of soundscapes that work for me might help. We'll see. I'll tell you next week.

Picture yourself sitting on a mountain overlooking the Temples of Bagan. It’s early morning and the cicada’s song begins softly. But as the bells call out their song becomes stifling like the humid air. 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.

Why I made this soundscape

Lately, I’ve been waking up to the cicada hum. It’s often so loud I wonder if it’s real or a noise in my head. Because of how it seemed to take over my brain I became interested in making it into a soundscape. I plan on using this to sit and reflect. Maybe you’ll do the same.

“Small Sound Bowls Oscillation” by RomajiBuffalo

Picture yourself sitting on the bank of a river near a stone bridge. Spring has just melted the snow and the water moves quickly over the rocks and stones. A cricket chirps. A bird sings. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the stream 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’m not against water soundscapes, but they have to have a strong current. I’ve made water trickling soundscapes in the past and every time I play them I end up needing to use the bathroom. So, let’s see how this one works out. They’re continuing to do construction on my roof this week and I hope this will drown out the hammer noise.

Picture yourself sitting in a field of lavender. A light wind blows perfuming the air. Crickets chirp their song while birds swoop down through the flowers. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the lavender blowing in the wind 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:

This week they started construction on the roof of my house. All days from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM there are hammers and crow bars tearing the shingles and beams away. It echoes down through the whole building. It's difficult not to be anxious. So, I made this field of lavender to listen to while they work. We'll see if it can drown them out when they come back next week.

Picture yourself sitting in tall grass. Coqui frogs call to each other creating a soothing song. Gentle waves lap against the shore in the distance. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the coqui frogs 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:

This coqui soundscape is for all the folks from Puerto Rico and Hawaii who are living on the main land, and need a little touch of home to sleep or relax. I’ve been putting the coqui songs on as well. At three AM it quickly makes me forget about possibly losing my job. And I stop going over the meeting I’ll be having next week. I hope it does the same for you.

Picture yourself lying on a beach. Snow flurries whip across the sea and over the sand. The ocean crashes in the distance. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the wind 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:

This week I was reading an article about how before the industrial revolution humans used to have two sleep periods during the night. They would go to bed around 9:00 PM and then wake up between midnight and one. They would get up and for a few hours, and then go back to bed for their second sleep between two and six in the morning. The idea made me feel a bit better. Maybe waking up at three AM isn’t so odd.

Picture yourself sitting on the bank of an oasis. A date palm rustles in the breeze. It hasn’t rained in years, but today thunder cracks in the distance. Quickly a storm sweeps in over the oasis. Relax and close your eyes. Let the sounds of the rolling thunder pull away your anxiety. Focus on the sound of the water. Your heart rate slows. Everything is calm and serene.
