Now disabled, I no longer can sleep under the stars surrounded by the guardians of the night. I once was an avid camper and outdoor survivalist. These days, this video is the lullaby that helps me sleep through nights of pain and poor sleep. It is the most realistic and natural video of the night sounds that I miss so much. thank you for this blessing.

I love this sound. It reminds me of when I came home to my front yard with my brother when I was like 9. My legs were burning from playing hide and seek in the freshly cut grass. When coming home all I could smell was the beautiful smell of dinner being made and also the smell of grass. But my favourite thing was to sit in the grass and listen to the crickets and look at the sky with small bats flying around while the moon and the stars start to slowly appear. My mind would always drift off into the best thoughts not knowing what life problems are, then suddenly being shook from hearing my mom call out my name to go eat dinner :)

Ever since moving to the city, sleeping has never been the same. I remember the hot summer days when I’d go out and play with the kids in my village all day until late evening, coming home to my mother cooking dinner, mosquitos biting at my legs, the dog barking a greeting.

Sometimes in the nights it’d be so hot you could stay out on the porch and listen to the distant sound of crickets echoing, some distant dog barking, trees and hills around you. And the stars— the stars were the most beautiful— not hidden by light pollution, but visible, almost like they were touchable, you could almost feel the texture of the universe through them. And on especially clear nights, the moon would become the sun.

The smells too, were unique. Grass, flowers, trees, all that fresh, pure nature scent surrounding you with a light breeze that cooled you off almost lovingly.

Man, I really miss those times. They were simpler back then.

i remember the days of my childhood when i was actually falling asleep listening to crickets and other night creatures. so beautiful, lovely, perfect.

Listen to this every night at bedtime, it’s like camping! It instantly calms my nerves and washes away the stressors of the day. Has been very helpful for my PTSD.

I know most people will over glorify their child hood, but, I had SO many of THESE memories growing up with fireflies and nature’s ambiance all around me. Camping outside with my family. Walks home through the neighborhood at night from a friends house. The feeling I get when just listening to this, it represents feelings and emotions I could never come close to putting into words. I’m so grateful that so many others understand how something so simple as a firefly can be so powerful. Blessed to be along side all of you in this adventure called Life.

The sound of crickets and the scent of the forest after the rain 🌧

Thanks for the happy memories! This 60-year-old woman is now a young girl in central Ohio again. My childhood home was by a small creek (crik as my grandmother called it) and it sounded just like this outside my bedroom window at night in the summer.

This makes me think of when I’d spend the night at my best friend’s house in grade school and I always slept on the carpet floor underneath her window. Not that she didn’t offer me her bed, but I chose to sleep there because could hear the nature so closely, and from down there looking up I could see the gentle blue haze of light peeking through the bottom of the curtains. Sometimes I would consciously stare at that little gap until my eyes got closer and closer to closing and I fell asleep. I haven’t been there in 6 years. And I didn’t realize how much that meant to me until just now.

This is absolutely what I hear outside my house every night. Mostly in the Spring after rain comes through. I live in a rural area with wooded areas near a river. Probably about half of what you hear as crickets, are tree frogs singing. This is beautiful....

[Lopy]

This brings back a lot of memories...I used to go and sleepover at my grandparent's house every Friday and me and my grandmother would go out in the backyard at night and catch fireflies, look at the stars, or just listen to nature's beautiful sounds ❤

[MsGardenhoe]

Sounds like my own backyard in the summertime. 🦗🕸🕷🌛 I cant wait to hear it again 🤗

[skid-mark]

I play this every night when I get into bed my 3 dogs also enjoy it. Helps calm us down and fall right asleep. They know as soon as I play this it’s bed time 🥱

[ImmabeWendy]

These have become a staple for my self care and mental health. When I’m reading? Going to bed? I grew up in the south so it’s super comforting to be able to listen whenever.

[codgirl]

Of course these sounds are incredibly soothing, but what I love about this is that it's not a computer drafted scene of flashing "fireflies, " but are the actual beautiful, mesmerizing flashes of the real thing. I haven't seen this before in other videos. BEAUTIFUL! And the sound of the insects is one of the best I've heard that sounds like my childhood home in the summertime in Massachusetts. Thank you for this!

[shariholmes]

This is the Lullaby of the Creator! Sweet dreams!

[laurarobinson]

I like this one best because it's the most relaxing and realistic! In the warm months, I open the bedroom windows to the screens and let in the fresh night air. One can hear the crickets and other night insect sounds, an occasional bird, and just a soft rustling in the air. For me, that's calming and soothing. It's the coldest part of winter here now and everything's closed up tight. At night, I put this track on and it feels like "summertime" again! Very pleasant and relaxing!

[aranzarowski]

I am suffering from tinnitus and this is the best way to mask the noise for me to sleep at night thank you.

[craigharpel]

Just what I needed today. If I close my eyes, I can almost think it's still summer!

[chrisanderson]

Even my message notification is a cricket 🦗! Love their soothing sound. Sitting in my yard in the summer is my favorite time of year
