BGM that soothes you when you listen. Music that calms the mind.

When you feel like you need healing, what do you do?

Some people go out to places rich in nature, spend time with animals, watch their favorite movies—there are many ways, depending on the person.

In this article, I’d like to introduce soothing music as one such option.

I’ve gathered gentle pieces that calm the mind and help heal both body and soul when you listen to them.

Play them when you go to sleep, use them as background music for meditation—listen at whatever time you prefer, and be sure to give yourself some healing.
