How does it work?

It is even believed that people who lives close to the beach have a better life quality and less health issues than the people who don’t.
Other water sounds
Other water sounds like the rain, the rivers or waterfalls can calm us down after a long day at work. The most important relaxing characteristic of the water sound is the gentle and gradual variations in the intensity of their moving. The human being always have had a very deep and strong relation with water, so this calming effect feels very natural to us.
Nature Sounds
