Natures lullaby to guide you to a deep sleep.

Why does the sound of rain help sleep?

According to the University of Melbourne, Rain sounds is a rhythmic ticking sound, which sounds like a wonderful lullaby that can help people fall asleep quickly.

Studies have found that when rain sounds enters people’s brain, brain unconsciously relaxes and produces alpha waves, which are very close to the state of brain when human sleeps.

Rain sound is generally between 0 and 20 kHz. It is not upsetting. On the contrary, this sound makes people comfortable. However, if there is a sudden sound of thunder in the middle of rain sounds, it will make people stressful. At the same time, the level of cortisol in people’s body will be high.

Enjoy your new-found better sleep. :)

How does white noise benefit sleep?

1. Helps you build a bedtime ritual.
   Especially if you have trouble falling asleep, but even if you don’t, it’s a good idea to establish a routine before bed (both for children and adults).  Make sleep hygiene a habit!
   
   
2. Keeps your bedroom QUIET.
   For optimal sleep, you need the optimal sleep environment.  White noise buffers disturbing sounds and creates a quiet cocoon, regardless of your surroundings or sleep situation.
   
   
3. Shuts down your busy brain.
   Ever have trouble falling asleep because your To-Do list won’t stop buzzing, or personal worries keep you awake? White noise can help - it’s even shown to help ease symptoms of anxiety. There’s a reason some people use it to meditate!
   
   
4. Once you’re asleep, you’ll stay asleep.
   By masking sounds that might interrupt your sleep, white noise protects your peaceful slumber.  And if you DO wake up, it’s often easier to fall back asleep.
   
   
5. You’ll sleep more soundly.
   You may not realize how many times you wake up each night.  But even if you don’t remember it in the morning, those little interruptions affect the quality of your sleep.  So give white noise a try and see if you don’t wake up feeling more refreshed.
   
   
6. You can bring white noise anywhere.
   While you can’t count on your environment, you CAN manage the noise factor, if you’ve got a sound machine. And many are compact and portable, making them easy to throw into a suitcase, diaper bag, or handbag. (This one’s especially helpful when traveling. Hotel room doors slamming and noisy hallways, anyone?)
