RAIN & THUNDERSTORM FOR SLEEP | Relaxation, Focus, Concentration, Study, Productivity | 10Hrs Many studies and reports show that nature sounds and green environments are more pleasing to the ear and more relaxing than artificial sounds and environments. When listening to sounds from nature, our brains tend to focus attention outward rather than inward. Rain and water sounds from nature create a relaxing acoustic environment to help you relax and unwind after a stressful day. You can feel more connected to your environment and nature, experience deeper and more restful sleep, focus more easily on tasks that require concentration, and feel overall more calm and at peace with the world.

Noise can interrupt sleep, and interrupted sleep is less restorative. Undesirable noise, like air and vehicle traffic that doesn't disturb sleep can still affect sleep by changing the time we spend in different sleep stages, increasing lighter sleep stages and decreasing more restorative slow wave and REM sleep. A very popular solution is to mask unwanted noise with a more desirable acoustic environment. Many find that masking background noise helps to distract from anxious or intrusive thoughts and readies the mind for sleep. Sound therapies are a proven solution for help with Sleep, Relaxation, Focus, Meditation, Study, Insomnia and Sleep Disorders, Stress Relief, and Anxiety.
