In this TED Talk, Julian Treasure discusses the important ways that sound affects us, including impacting our physical and psychological well-being, our level of productivity, etc.
After listening to the recommendations in this talk, I purchased some recordings on iTunes that feature a lot of bird song (e.g., "Soothing Sanctuary", by David & Steve Gordon; "Forest Ambiance" from the Nature Sound Series). Whenever we play them in our house, it creates a powerful sense of peace and well-being for me.

Thanks for sharing this stimulating and informative video. I am a believer in the impact of sound and worry about the nasty effects of sound pollution. I'm glad someone is paying attention and also to learn fresh tips about how to take control of my sonic environment.
