💧Serene Forest Stream | Water Sounds for Sleep
Though it’s easy to take nature’s own healing "music" for granted, nature sounds can be among the most helpful remedies in easing your body and mind—particularly when you’re stressed or upset.

But for some people, getting completely immersed in the calming ambience of the beach or the woods isn’t always possible.

The good news is that you can still enjoy the benefits of nature’s music for healing in the comfort of your home, car, office… or wherever you may roam.

🌳The Tranquil Sounds of Nature Triumph
In a recent study published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, researchers set out to gauge how one’s sound environment affects stress recovery.

Forty subjects were exposed to recorded sounds from either nature or urban environments after enduring multiple rounds of high-stress mathematic testing. In between each testing period was a window of “recovery.”

During each recovery period, participants were exposed to either:

• Nature noises: This included the sounds of a running fountain and chirping birds.

• Urban noises: This included either loud road traffic noise, moderate road traffic noise, or ambient outdoor noise.

Then, researchers administered a skin prick test to measure the participant’s stress levels.

Not surprisingly, they discovered that the nature sounds produced the quickest recovery from the stress of the test, while the “loud traffic sound” produced the slowest recovery.

🏡 How Environmental Sounds Effect Our Body
What I found interesting was the way the researchers attributed these results to the inter-workings of the nervous system and how it reacts to sound.

For instance, loud traffic sounds were found to activate the body’s sympathetic system (this is what kicks in when we’re in fight or flight mode), while soothing nature sounds were shown to activate the parasympathetic system (when our bodies are in a state of comfort or rest).

🧘‍♀️Create Your Own Stress Reduction Refuge

Here are three ways you can create an environment around you for stress reduction:

1. Add some zen to what will now become your relaxation refuge.
It can be your office, bedroom, or even your kitchen. Add a few calming physical objects like a small table-top fountain, candle, plant, or lamp with warm lighting.

2. Cue up: 💧Serene Forest Stream | Water Sounds for Sleep
