If you’re sensitive to visual stimulation, this will do more for you than sounds, however, the music is very soothing too.

Your nerves can’t help but be totally calmed by the sight of this stunning garden come to life.

This time lapse video is compiled from some 10,000 photographs taken by Shane Black. A touch of wanderlust is always good for the soul.

7. The Milky Way

I like to watch videos of the night sky (there’s too much light pollution where I live to get great views of the real thing!). Not only is it beautiful but if I’m a bit down, it reminds me of one of my favorite quotes - “When it is dark enough, you can see the stars.” (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

8. The Northern Lights

You can’t but help marvel at the spectacular that is the Northern Lights. As you watch the magical colors dance across the sky, your cares and woes just let away …even for just a little time is good.

9. Relax and Breathe

This video is specifically designed calm down anxiety with a simple breathing exercise. If you struggle to calm down because you can’t find something to focus on to simply breathe, this this exercise. All you have to do is breathe and lose yourself in the shape.

10. Escape to the Deep

Fishes swimming, seaweed swaying, marine creatures dancing, the light making incredible patterns in the water … everything you need to soothe those frayed nerves.

If none of these work for you, just search YouTube. Think about what makes you feel calm and there’s bound to be a video that will work wonders.
