The sound of the rain pouring outside is making me sleepy

the words rain and sleeping for me are very identical to one another. I think when it rains the atmosphere is very cold and chilly and that's what make you want to sleep.

Hi there success1625! Usually, the rain inspires me to right and reflect. There are times that it lulls me to sleep too. It's so nice to sleep when it's raining.

The rain is so peaceful and it lulls us to sleep. I also get sleepy on the rainy days. I enjoy listening to it hit the roof top. It is a beautiful sound. I hope you enjoy your sleep!

Well yeah the rain is pretty awesome when you want to sleep it is really calm and it relaxes you so much so it's awesome don't worry to fall asleep phaha you will have the best sleep ever like this.I really love it when it rains outside it's so relaxing and yeah if it's in the night when you go to bed to sleep then it's getting pretty amazing xD :D.

oh yeah i agree it makes me feel sleepy too and craving at the same time for some sweets during those kind of wheather. i think why people feel sleepy when it rain because it is very relaxing and the temperature its somewhat cold.

It's especially hard to get out of bed and go to work when it's raining! When that happens I actually think about calling out of work and crawling back under the cozy blanket. But unfortunately I never call out even when I really want too.

Yep,the "White Noise" of rain outside is quite relaxing and will usually lull you to sleep..I've always liked that..having a fan heater going in the room can have the same effect on me,but I can't figure how given that I can rarely sleep when I'm on a plane..maybe it's the pressurised cabin,the seats with not enough recline or legroom to be comfortable,or jostling elbows with those on either side for the armrests!

Unfortunately the way our house is built (heavily insulated in the roof, I guess) I can't really ever hear the rain. We don't get a lot of it here, anyway, living in the desert, but sometimes we get some really good storms and I'd love to be able to listen to them. I found a website that is a fair substitute - rainymood.com - but not the same. I usually like to read when it's raining. It sounds a little cliche but I like to curl up with a good book and read while I listen to the rain.

Hello there. As far as I know water has tranquility effect. In addition to that, water has high specific heat which makes the surrounding cold when it is raining. Rain pouring is what the after effect of rain falling. The effect of raining to our body is that it will slow down our metabolism rate because of the coldness. The tranquility effect makes our mind and body calm and relax. Since you are at home, it makes u feel like the bed is calling for you. Anyway, happy myLotting!!

Rain makes me tired as well. Whenever it's rainy and gross outside, I just want to either curl up and go to sleep, or snuggle under blankets with a good mystery novel. . Fortunately (or unfortunately, however you see it), it's like GORGEOUS outside where I am right now (Minnesota of the U.S.) - like 40 degrees and it WAS sunny earlier. I kind of like rainy days though, they give me an excuse to be lazy. . Happy MyLotting!

@ success: I completely agree with you. Going to bed with the rain pouring down outside; what a fantastic feeling. It always reminds me of being a child and going on camping trips. Rain however has quite the opposite effect in the morning. If I am half awake and it rains really heavily outside I am unlikely to go back to sleep. Why is that?

The rain pouring and cold weather really make us sleepy..., I agree with you..,
