"We have sound all around us at all times but which sounds soothe us?...At 'Sounds That Soothe', we spend a lot of time asking just these questions. Sounds That Soothe was established to research the benefits of music for stress relief, relaxation, inspiration and to generally inspire a calmer way of life.... Sounds That Soothe research found that music was very important for relaxation....  ...relaxing music. Sounds That Soothe found that some people preferred relaxation music that was constantly drifting and changing to the point of being random. This music seems to reflect the soothing powers of the nature sounds they often accompany. Other people told Sounds That Soothe that they liked a more conventional arrangement - melody and harmony complementing the nature sounds as a focus for concentration...."
