Listen to crickets, cicadas, and other nocturnal creatures hum and trill beside a babbling brook in the lush forest of Cades Cove in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The various noises of the night combine to create a sense of peacefulness, a perfect way to let the mind unwind.

Unlike canned nature sounds created in a studio, renowned acoustic ecologist Gordon Hempton gives you the real deal. He travels the world recording remarkable locations that capture the essence of the place itself. His lifelong mission is to preserve nature through sound, and his soundscapes are produced with such care and quality that you feel as if he has truly brought a slice of the world into your home.

This title is part of The Audible Sleep Collection, exclusive audio experiences created to help you fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up in the right morning mindset. New and free for members.

...to camping in the woods, and I love it! I pictured the bubbling brook just a few feet from my bedroll as I slept under the canopy of trees while I watched the stars of the Milky Way through the natural clearing over the stream as I feel gently to sleep. All in all, a wonderful audio that I will play again and again and again.

This is part of a series of audiobooks that are purely nature sounds. I use it as a 'natural sleeping pill'. it's much healthier and enjoying than the prescription drugs or counting sheep :-) I really like the sounds - just place it at a low-volume setting, and enjoy the feeling of sleeping in the nature.

Wonderful sleeping aid :-) Part of a great series
