We have spent years filming magical moments in nature and we create DVDs & CDs without people or voiceover to help people relax and escape to and enjoy the natural world whenever they feel the need.
Helps Stress, Sensory Problems, Autism, Dementia, Anxiety & Insomnia
There are no people or voiceover to distract you, not even music (see Film Clip opposite - make sure your speakers are on). You will only hear nature’s calls, her sounds and her silences.
The DVD Calmer by Nature
Calmer by Nature is the name of an enchanting and unique nature film, available here on DVD, in both PAL & NTSC formats.
It was designed following research to help people relax and cope with stress, anxiety and depression. However, Healthcare professionals in many countries are now using it and recommending it as a therapy for an increasing number of Sensory Problems, including:
- Alzheimer’s & Dementia
- Autism Spectrum Disorders
- Children with Autistic Symptoms & Adults with Autism– also Aspergers
- Sensory Integration and Sensory Processing and Motor Sensory Issues

- In Care Homes where it creates “a lovely mood and a good working environment”.

The film takes you on a magical journey, following a mountain stream to the sea and along the way you will have close encounters with wild deer, badgers and nesting woodpeckers and then on to fields of wild poppies and hedgerows bursting with spring flowers and trout in gin clear streams with ducklings, ending at the coast with rock pools and curlews flying off into the sunset (running time 57 minutes).
Showing nature's images and her sounds have been scientifically proven to reduce the requirement for pain killers and therefore rank highly as Natural Therapies. The DVD is increasingly being used as a valuable tool by Occupational Therapists, health professionals, caregivers and carers (see feed-back page).
The film will be appreciated by anyone who loves nature and it was recommended in the UK by Daily Mail columnist Bel Mooney (see Press Cuttings).
The DVD is being supplied to hospitals and old peoples’ homes. Occupational Therapists tell us “this DVD is a fantastic therapy tool”. Other quotes include “in the hands of creative innovative therapists, it comes into its own, facilitating opportunities for discussion and conversation, from talking about and remembering days out when younger, to fears and worries, ways to manage stress to enhancing relaxation sessions extending on the imagery”.
A patient said “it draws you in gently while you float down the river and escape to a place that is safe and peaceful – respite from the world and chaos – away from my looming crisis”.
And from an autistic patient “the outside inside when you feel you can’t go outside – this will be my great escape in winter and late at night when I can’t go out and need to”.
From a therapist, “amazingly calming, I’m going to share this with my friends and relatives as well, I want and am going to buy one for myself. I will definitely be showing this to the rest of my team – we need them”.
Calmer by Nature, in summary, is a Natural Therapy, a proven aid to Sensory Therapy, Stress Relief, Autism, Anxiety, Dementia, Tinnitus, Insomnia, Alzheimer's, Asperger's Syndrome, Mental Health, and Community Care. It also supports Cognitive Behavioural Therapies (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy
Sounds of Nature |
Relax and let your imagination wander with the wonderful bird song in the morning chorus, with red stag, pheasants, foxes, buzzards and fallow bucks calling and bellowing in the early forest mist. Sit by a gentle stream, hear swallows feeding their young, sheep and lambs bleating in the field, the sea lapping at the shore with the sounds of curlews, geese, ducks and waders soothing you.
