Provide afamiliar natural rhythmthat can comfort and ground the listener
Encouragemental stillnessthrough predictable, steady repetition
Create a primal sense ofconnection to natureand the outdoors — even in an urban setting

Night cicadas in particular offer a soundscape that’s bothearthy and ethereal, especially effective for winding down after screen time or overstimulation.
⚠️ Listening Considerations
While soothing for most, some may find insect sounds unfamiliar or overstimulating at first. Keep in mind:
Start at low volumeand adjust to your comfort — these high tones carry well.
Avoid headphone use during sleepunless with sleep-safe gear.

Not ideal for those who associate insect sounds with anxiety or discomfort — always listen mindfully.
