Who here loves music with little to no lyrics? I do, and if you haven’t listened to the wonders of instrumental music, then I highly suggest that you do. This type of music is great to relax because there are no words to distract or evoke strong reactions from you. I’ve curated relaxing playlists with no lyrics on Spotify below for your listening pleasure. Use them to relax, meditate, or help you sleep.
Table of Contents
Sleepy time
If you want to take a quick nap or are settling for a good night’s rest, listen to these soothing beats to help you get in dreamland faster.
Whether you want the ocean waves, muffled wind, soft ceiling fan, or country crickets to sing you to sleep, Tmsoft has it for you. Choose from a variety (lava bubbling, creaky house, vacuums, etc.) of hour-long relaxing sounds to get your eyes dropping.
- Sleep by Spotify
Quiet, soft beats that can lull you to sleep. Pair it with a weighted blanket and you’re sure to be in deep sleep in no time.
- Music Box Lullabies by Spotify
We may not be babies anymore, but that doesn’t mean that these lullabies won’t also put us to sleep.
- April Yang’s kalimba covers on Youtube
I love the sound of the kalimba. It reminds me of a music box and feels like a lullaby. April Yang has many relaxing covers all of which sound very soothing. Even just watching her play is relaxing. My favorite so far is this one. It’s not available on Spotify Canada for some reason, so I included the Youtube link in case you can’t find it on Spotify as well.
Tea/Coffee time
These relaxing playlists with no lyrics on Spotify are for when you just want to sit or recline while sipping your coffee or tea. Let the music wash over you while your mind savors each soft beat.
- Stress relief by Spotify
Feel the stress melt away with the gentle piano keys. Degravitated’s Etheral Beauty and Cora Zea’s Moving Life the Mountain are especially beautiful.
- Quiet Hours by Spotify
I love this playlist because they’re upbeat yet relaxing at the same time. Favorites: Anywhere Next to You, Sleepy Story., and Waking Up Is Hard Sometimes.
- Living Coffee by Cafe Music BGM channel
Another wonderful playlist from one of my favorite Spotify channels. Listening to the songs will make you feel like you’re in your favorite coffee shop.
Spa time
Play these relaxing playlists with no lyrics on Spotify when you’re in a shower or bath. Throw in some essential oils and scented candles and be transported into your very own spa at home!
- Peaceful Retreat by Spotify
Playing these while in the bath or shower can definitely soothe your mood. Take your time (but don’t waste water!) lathering on your favorite shampoo and soap while basking in these ambient beats.
- Soothing Music for Bath, Spa, etc. by Bath Music
Relax your mind and body with this playlist while in a bath. Use a scented bath bomb to make the experience more luxurious.
- SPA Lounge by Spotify
The title really says it all. This music feels like I’m being massaged in a spa.
Nature music
Soft beats interspersed with bird song, raindrops on a window pane, or the sound of a nearby stream. Now that’s relaxing!
- Piano + Nature by Piano Peace
Mix calming piano with the sounds of nature and you get a very relaxing playlist.
- SPA Nature Sounds by Spotify
Be transported to a rainforest or by the side of a river. Listen to the sounds of nature and relax.
- Forest In The Summer by Nature Sounds At Home, Nature Recordings
Similar to Piano + Nature, listen to relaxing piano music combined with bird song and other forest sounds.
This podcast records the sounds of nature all around us. Even the names are enough to put us in a relaxed mood: Campfire with Passing Rain and Sleet, Frogs at Dry Lake, and Breezy Aspens at Meadows’ Edge, to name a few.
