Struggle to sleep at night? Discover what sounds will help you to sleep better, from white noise to soothing seaside noises.
What are the best sleep sounds?
In no particular order, here are some of the most popular and effective sleep sounds:
1. White noise
One of the most popular sounds for sleep is that of white noise, which is known for its calming effects, as it masks high and low-frequency noise pollution.
2. Waves and oceans
Whether it’s gentle waves lapping the shore or the sounds of sea birds and the crash of ocean storms, the seas are a great listen when we’re trying to sleep.
3. Rainforest & woodland
The gentle hum of insects, the calls of canopy birds, the slow drip of rain from last night’s torrents – the rainforest is a hotbed of noise and activity. \
4. Rainfall and storms
Aside from the effect rain has on barometric pressure and increasing our melatonin production, the simple sound of rain is also great for helping us nod off.
5. Classical piano music
While the benefits of lullabies and relaxing music are widely known for babies, it’s less known how effective classical music can be for all age groups.
