Sound and song therapy
A sound studio for your nervous system
Every sound here is generated live in your browser, so there's nothing to download. Mix rain, ocean and wind, strike a singing bowl, or let calm music compose itself. Headphones make it better.
Nature mixer
Instruments
Singing bowl
A long, shimmering tone. Strike it, breathe out slowly, and listen until it fades.
Ambient music
Gentle notes that compose themselves, never repeating.
Binaural beats
Two slightly different tones, one in each ear. Many people find them relaxing, though scientific evidence for specific effects is mixed. Headphones required.
Sleep timer
Everything fades out gently.
