“At any given moment, life is completely senseless. But viewed over a period, it seems to reveal itself as an organism existing in time, having a purpose, trending in a certain direction.”
—Aldous Huxley (via nymphalis)

look i’m really neutral on twilight
but there’s a point in time where you just need to stop

That awkward moment when it's midnight, and you're pondering over some volumes of forgotten lore, while mourning over your lost lenore, and suddenly there comes a tapping, a gentle rapping on your door. And when you open it up there's darkness, only that and nothing more.
i like the feeling when you can tell if someone is lying to you.

Scientists discover most relaxing tune ever
Sound therapists and Manchester band Marconi Union compiled the song. Scientists played it to 40 women and found it to be more effective at helping them relax than songs by Enya, Mozart and Coldplay.
Weightless works by using specific rhythms, tones, frequencies and intervals to relax the listener. A continuous rhythm of 60 BPM causes the brainwaves and heart rate to synchronise with the rhythm: a process known as ‘entrainment’. Low underlying bass tones relax the listener and a low whooshing sound with a trance-like quality takes the listener into an even deeper state of calm.
Dr David Lewis, one of the UK’s leading stress specialists said: “‘Weightless’ induced the greatest relaxation – higher than any of the other music tested. Brain imaging studies have shown that music works at a very deep level within the brain, stimulating not only those regions responsible for processing sound but also ones associated with emotions.”
The study - commissioned by bubble bath and shower gel firm Radox Spa - found the song was even more relaxing than a massage, walk or cup of tea. So relaxing is the tune, apparently, that people are being advised against listening to it while driving.God
I downloaded this instead and as it played I slowly just sagged in my chair til there was nothing in it but my back
then Imogen Heap came on immediately after and it was like being paralysed in the depths of space
I just played this for my Four and a Half Year Old. First time he’s been silent ALL DAY. Silent and Still. It’s now played three times. We both needed it I think.
So downloading this
