Beautiful nature sounds to help you relax

This worked well for managing my tinnitus. I've struggled a while with sharp peeping in my ears, but this took my mind of it and transported me outdoors.
The Waterfall episode was a little too strong and loud for me, but the Rainforest was perfect! I loved the dripping sounds of water, and the wind in the trees.
Really wishing for more of these!

Soothing and beautiful

I have some difficulties to fall asleep, need something to calm me down.
used to listen to boring readers/ performers, but these soundbites are much, much more pleasant.
I'm truly grateful for this gift.

Actually works!

Have had quite a few sleepless nights of late and when we do both nod off our cars wake us up! This has sent us both off to sleep especially the Cape Cod Seashore one!

Depends on you

For me Cape Cod and the Rainforest work really well but the waterfall not so much. Really it depends on you and how you react to sounds that's why there's 4 of them to choose from.

Calming or lonely

Found the sea sounds calming, but the forest ones rather lonely feeling.
Would really appreciate being able to loop them
Also if audible are going to add more I would love some with bird song or animals sounds included.
