Wind Chimes Are A Superb Present Of Peace

By Wendy Criswell

When you give the gift of wind chimes you are giving much more than just a gift of beauty. When a summer breeze blows late at night and the sound of the chimes blends with the sounds of the crickets, there is nothing like it. As part of a musical ensemble that blends with nature, the sleepy night can roll into peaceful slumber.

There is a very special peaceful nature about listening to wind chimes. Many people have found that they relieve stress and they provide a sounding base to anchor them. Many people have tried comforting sounds of the chime to help them sleep after a traumatic event. It is a one of a kind sound, and every chime has a one of a kind sound. Yours will never sound like your neighbor's.

These are not just night time comforts. During the day their sound is just as beautiful and inviting. Whether you're trying to settle a cranky child for a nap or you are in need of a pleasant noise to distract you from stress, these are the sounds that typically work well. The brilliance of their music is something that almost all of us can appreciate. When you move, go through tough times, or have financial difficulties, the simple sound of the chimes can be very comforting.

It can offer an anchor in the middle of stress. It can be soothing to loneliness. We respond very rapidly to sound, and this is one that we are drawn to.

You don't want to overload a home by attaching too many variations of sound to it. One or two chimes is often enough to create the beautiful music of nature right outside your window. Each chime offers its very own creation of sound. Blending too many can end up sounding overpowering and out of tune. One metal and one wood version is usually enough for complimentary sound.

Any home can be well dressed with a simple chime. Regardless of what material the chime is made from, you can count on the delivery of chronically beautiful sound and an emotional attachment to that sound. The longer a chime is in place the more its absence is noted by the people within ear shot.

As a thoughtful gift, the wind chime is such a perfect, on the nose selection that it shouldn't be passed up. Anyone without a chime will soon come to understanding what they've really been missing all this time. It does much more than add sound effects for those walking by.
