It’s Bubble Walls & The Sounds of Water Flowing and Falling
In early modern Europe, water features were found in the elaborate gardens and mansions of the wealthy, and in modern times can be an element in urban design provided by the municipal authorities or public subscription.
Believe it or not, bubble wall water features have numerous health benefits. The water feature can relieve stress, promote relaxation and naturally induce tranquility after a busy or stressful day.
Ancient water features were powered using gravitational forces, human power or animals to pump in the water.
Modern water features are typically self-contained, meaning that they do not require water to be plumbed in; rather water is recycled.
You can add interest to your home with bubble wall water features. Many homeowners state these bubble wall water features are the best thing they have ever added to their home. Why? There are numerous benefits to these. This article will help you determine if a bubble wall water feature is right for your home.
A Pleasant Sound
Most homes have so much insulation in their walls that you can no longer enjoy the sound of rain hitting your roof. If you miss the drip drop sound of rain, why not install a bubble wall? You will get to enjoy the relaxing sound of bubbling, trickling water inside your home.
Did you know there’s a scientific reason why a shower feels so refreshing? It’s the same reason why people flock to lakes, oceans, and waterfalls for vacations. Falling water from fountains, waterfalls, and even your morning shower, releases negative ions into the surrounding atmosphere. And these ions have a profound effect on our physical well-being.
Are you someone who rejoices when raindrops start to fall from the sky?
Does a rainy-day forecast conjure delightful images of curling up in a cozy blanket with a hot beverage and a good book? If so, you are a part of a special tribe of people known as pluviophiles. Pluviophiles are people who love the rain. You are probably used to listening to others whine endlessly about being wet and cold. Meanwhile, you fantasize about those delicious drops and wonder how someone could not appreciate a gloriously gloomy day. If you’re a pluviophile, not only are you joyful when it rains, the chances are that you’re a more pleasant person the rest of the time as well. Here are five reasons why people who enjoy the rain are happier in life:
-
They tune into their senses to more fully experience life
People who love rain bask in their experiences. They can describe the rain in vivid detail, from the mesmerizing pitter-patter sound, to the hypnotic way each drop magnifies and changes the scenery on the on the other side of the windowpane. Pluviophiles appreciate the scent of a fresh storm and the delicious feel of water dripping down their skin. They even know the taste of fresh drops as they look upwards with arms outstretched and welcome a cool drink from the clouds.
-
They live in the moment
Happiness researcher, Dr. Matt Killingsworth, used a smartphone app called “Track Your Happiness” to have people report their level of happiness during specific activities in real time. What he found out was that there is a direct link between happiness and being completely present in whatever one is doing. What better way to get lost in the moment than playfully splashing through puddles or…listening to your bubble wall symphony?
-
They are more confident in themselves
Let’s face it, if you’re an adult running around in the rain, you probably don’t care a whole lot about what others think. People who love the rain are proud of it. They are the cool ones, and everyone who is inside being miserable is missing out. Even if a pluviophile’s hair gets wet and their makeup runs, they don’t care. They still look good.
-
They are more resilient during tough times
Pluviophiles understand very well that it takes a little rain to make the flowers grow. When things get a little rough in life, these are the people who will remind you that “this too shall pass.” In fact, they know that challenges are necessary to seize the best opportunities. You don’t get rainbows unless you also have rain.
-
They know how to keep things in perspective
A true rain lover would never dream of freaking out about the weather. It’s a few tiny raindrops, not a zombie apocalypse. Pluviophiles know how to look at the simple realities of life and put them in context. If you ever need someone to talk you off a ledge, go find someone who loves the rain. They will have you in your Zen place in no time.
All in all, if you want to be happier and less stressed, incorporate the natural sounds of water into your living environment. It really works.
