Light Rain & Birds Singing For Better Sleep, Relaxation, & Meditation by NatureArtRx Films Light Rain & Birds Singing is a 4K UHD movie of light rain falling on a river scene with birds chirping and singing. 

You can enjoy this 1 hour of the sound of rain falling to help you go to sleep or relax at any time of the day or night.

After a few minutes, you can literally feel the stress leaving your body.  

The hypnotic sounds of rain queues to your mind to relax and be peaceful.

Science has confirmed in many credible studies that listening to nature helps us sleep better. We already know the soothing power of nature’s sounds calms our minds and slows our hearts down.

Researchers have discovered that nature sounds change the connections in our brains, taking down the body’s fight-or-flight response. The nervous system prepares to fight or flee a threatening situation by releasing the hormones cortisol, adrenaline, and noradrenaline. These stress hormones make it impossible to get a good night’s sleep.

Researchers at Brighton and Sussex Medical School in England have determined that nature’s sounds, in contrast to artificial noise, build up the “rest-digest” response instead.  This opposite response to “fight-or-flight” helps the body relax and fall to sleep. 

This research study, published in Scientific Reports, is noteworthy for the use of heart-rate monitors, functional magnetic resonance imaging scans (fMRI) and social experiments to determine why the body reacts so positively to natural environments.

I suggest practicing slow and deep breathing to help relieve stress and emotional anxiety. Deep breathing is also known to relieve pain, improve your mood, improve focus, increase energy, and even improve your heart function.

Start with one minute deep breathing exercises and build up over time.  I honestly believe if you do this simple task, you will start receiving the positive benefits immediately. 

You can cast the video to your television in full 4K or watch on your larger desktop computer screen to get a deeper and more immersive experience connecting sight and sound together. 

By combining the therapeutic sounds of the rain falling with the ultra high definition video of the rain falling on the river, we are sending audio and visual queues to your mind and body to help you relax.

HEALING POWERS OF NATURE

Scientists and medical researchers have confirmed the healing power of nature in over fifty years of clinical and medical-based research.  We don't need doctors and researchers to tell us what we already know.  Nature has an amazing positive range of impacts on our mind and bodies and it is smart to connect with nature in any way that you can every day. 

Connecting with and being in nature has been proven to be beneficial for both human cognitive functioning and emotional wellbeing at all stages of life (Zaradic & Pergams, 2007) and we know that exposure to nature in any form increases intellectual, emotional, social, spiritual and physical development. (Kellert, 2005).
