How Rain Soothes Us

Morning Mantra: "In a world full of chaos, be soft rain."  There are therapeutic benefits to a nice long rain.  Not just for the Earth, but for us as well.  It is a steady presence that nourishes, calms and replenishes.Studies have found that when the sound of rain enters a person’s brain, the brain unconsciously relaxes and produces alpha waves, which are very close to the state of the brain when a human sleeps.When rain occurs, it causes the soil and plants to release a chemical called petrichor. This chemical is responsible for “the smell of rain” and can help some people feel calm and at ease.So, when the world feels harsh and chaotic, think of soft rain.  Be soft rain.#BeSoftRain  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes
