You have probably heard of the term white noise, but do you know what it is?
In simple terms, white noise is a special type of sound signal which is used to cover background sounds that could affect your sleep pattern.
When you use white noise to promote healthy sleep, it will help to mask out those sounds that might otherwise prevent you from either falling asleep or wake you up while you are sleeping.
In technical terms, white noise can be described as a constant noise throughout the audible frequency range.
How does white noise work?
During the night, we get used to most background noises, but when you hear something that your brain considers worth your attention, you will wake up. Think of it as an alarm system that is working even when you are resting.
Who needs white noise?
There are many instances in which a white noise machine can be very helpful. For instance, if your spouse snores, there are noisy street sounds or environmental sounds. In some cases, there are people with noise aversion disorders that make them react to certain sounds.
I, for instance, find it relaxing and helps me to unwind and relax when my brain does not get the memo that it is time for bed and still works at 100 miles an hour. Having the white noise in the background helps me slowly relax.
There are many devices for white noise
There are many different white noise devices, so when choosing, take into consideration what will work best for your lifestyle.
Size, design, and portability are the main features I look for in a white noise machine.
My old unit was anything but aesthetic and a real eyesore, so I wanted a device that could be easily integrated into the room’s décor and add a nice visual effect.
App enable
This app is great because I want to be able to change the setting and adjust the volume without getting out of bed. Experts recommend you place your white noise device close to a wall but, unlike you might have guessed, not on your nightstand. The last thing I want to do is get out of bed to adjust the volume once I am already I bed. An app will prevent all this.
I want to be able to take my unit with me when I am traveling, so the size and weight really matters.
Snooz has a lightweight, compact, and trendy unit that can be moved from room to room and can be easily packed for those times you are on the go.
It also has a real fan, for a full spectrum sound and no looping tracks!
Fully adjustable, user-friendly, this white noise machine, features a specific setting for babies that would keep the levels within the proper range for young delicate ears.
Great for anyone looking for an easy sleep aid.
