5.0 out of 5 stars Ocean in your landlocked bedroom, April 28, 2004

I am a big fan of environmental sounds for relaxation. I often put the cd player on a timer for going to sleep if I am stressed, or use it for coaxing myself back to sleep if I wake with insomnia . The sad truth is that nearly my entire life, I've had trouble staying asleep the entire night. There is no time of night more USELESS than three am when you can't do anything that would wake up the rest of the house or else you really HAVE to sleep for a busy morning to come. Sometimes I get up and write, but recently, I've started playing environmental sounds to get to sleep and stay asleep. It really works for me.

The problem with many of the ocean recordings I've heard is that they are either too crashingly loud, or have a fake sound, or the repeat is too short, all of which disturb you from the illusion of lying on a beach, dozing off. The quality of this recording is excellent. I can also say that this recording is fantastic when stuck on a long flight back from the West Coast. Just put on the headphones, and drop off for needed sleep on the red-eye. Ahhh.

5.0 out of 5 stars rolling pebbles, waves, and office calm, August 7, 2000

By 

Liz Birkholz (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Echoes of Nature: Ocean Waves (Audio CD)

In my never-ending quest for the perfect CD to politely drown out my co-workers office-doings, this became one of several CDs I purchased in a spending flurry. Cheap, yes. Sound quality, adequate for an office environment and a pair of cheap headphones. A few birds, a section that does a very nice job of capturing the sound of pebbles being pushed up the shoreline, and of course, the rhythmic waves. Not a bad CD to quell office chat. Recommended if you are hunting for something that isn't completely white noise static. This one's inflections aren't so intrusive that you stop thinking your way through a report. It even lends peacefulness to your desk.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!!!!!! Very relaxing and soothing., July 26, 1999

This review is from: Echoes of Nature: Ocean Waves (Audio CD)

I have listened to this cd for years! It is very relaxing and soothing and definitely helps me sleep. It is only true ocean sounds, no music crap added. This is my second copy, as the first one got scratched when I moved. I highly recommend it!!!!!!!!!
