Excellent relaxation music, either to fall asleep to or just play for babies and kids...also, great for puppies to make sure they don't get thungerstorm fear.

Serious Storm

"This CD starts with a sharp clap of thunder followed by another. For that reason alone, it makes this CD unsuitable for sleeping to (IMO). However, once that passes, the sound of a good rain hitting hard wet ground/pavement is pretty nice. Further into the CD, the rain recording goes from ground level to normal level as we hear a hard rain coming from the sky with plenty of thunder in the background and some of that coming in sharp claps. This CD isn't edited as well as others which knocks it from a 4 to a 3. Still, I don't regret this purchase."
At One Part It Dosen't Sound Like A Thunderstorm.

"The reason why I'm giving this tape 3 out of 5 stars is because at one part in the tape, for a while the thunder and the rain stopps and it dosen't sound like a rainstorm at all. It actually sounds like a backyard right after a rainstorm. But the rest is fine. Something I DO like about this tape is that it constantly changes types of rainfall. It's either a lot of rain or it's little rain, but more up-close so the raindrops can make that sound I love so much."
It is what it is. Doesn't say it is for sleeping

"This cd is exactly what the label says it is. It is for RELAXING. It starts with a thunder clap because MANY thunderstorms DO start that way. It is a very convincing relaxation tool that is designed to allow you to create a thunderstorm in your mind. It wasn't designed to take you off to neverland, just to help you conjure up images, smells and good feelings that remembering a thunderstorm might bring back for you. Perfect for a lunch hour meditation at work. It works so well for me that I remember vividly storms back home in Kansas and the way the air was charged with electricity and all the rushing around getting all the animals in the barn and rolling up car windows before it started to rain. Then how relaxed I felt when all was done and you hear that crack of thunder that sets off a chain of pleasant events. And the way the air feels when everything was brought in just in time and all that was left to do was let the storm do it's thing. Then the storm would be over, and the clouds would pass, allowing the sun to take over. Then the birds would sing out to tell me that it was safe to open the barn door and how happy the animals were to get back out in the yard and play. I feel energized after this meditation, but still very relaxed. More ready to complete the day. It is about 25 minutes long, so you still have time for that sandwich."
