Enhanced Study Performance - how nature sounds may help you study - part 2
Aug 7th, 2008 by andrew skeoch
In part one, I discussed music as background listening to enhance your study or work environment. I concluded that what makes for good music is what engages our minds and feelings. However in studying, this can be distracting, and not what we want. Ideally, we are looking for listening that is vital, not soporific, whilst not being overly distracting either.
This is where nature sounds may offer a unique listening choice.
The sounds of nature have an utterly different, well… nature. In
contrast to music, we are tuning in to the world beyond the human
realm. We are listening to the voices and songs of our planet.
These sounds - birdsong, insect calls, wind and water - must surely
be the definition of sounds that are vital and alive.
