No, I don't live by the ocean anymore. But I still miss the sound of its waves. The crash and hiss of the surf. The ongoing, never-ending, always-calming sound of it as background to daily life... So this CD was a Godsend to me. I listen to it when I go to bed. It helps me get to sleep and stay asleep. So much more than "white noise", this is the perfect counterpart to meditation and relaxation.

This CD is wonderful to meditate to. As someone who has a really hard time blocking out outside noises while meditating, I figured I would benefit from a noise machine or something. I found this CD at my local health food store and, since I love the ocean, thought it may work. I was right. It is now one of many nature based CDs I own that I play while meditating. Since I live in a neighborhood with lots of children, this CD is great at drowning out their playing. I would recommend this CD to anyone who finds the ocean relaxing and the rhythm of the waves hypnotic. The CD is simply recordings of the beach at night. This is good because there are no animal noises or people noises. All you hear is the water lapping the shore and the consistent sounds of the waves crashing. It will help you to get to "that place" more easily. It has worked for me!
