Why we picked this?

Thunderspace utilizes stereoscopic 3D audio and realistic lightning flashes to create a thunderstorm around you. Put your headphones on and listen as the audio moves back and forth between your ears, and watch as your room is lit up by your iPhone’s flash. You’ll want to place your iPhone out of sight so you don’t see the source of the flashes, otherwise you’ll ruin the experience. The app includes a sleep timer, two storms to choose form, and the ability to disable the flash. Additional storms are available via in-app purchase.

You have troubles relaxing or sleeping. The 3D audio coupled with the LED flashes makes the experience totally unique.
