Relaxing Sleep Sounds Help With Insomnia

By Linda Ruiz


Most people go through certain periods in their lives when they have problems falling asleep. Sound therapy for sleeping problems has been used for centuries. Today there are ways of dealing with this problem such as recordings of relaxing sleep sounds.

Sleeping is just as important to you as drinking and eating. Your body needs it to function properly and when deprived of it on a consistent basis many health problems can result. The mind does not function properly, the immune system is compromised and emotions become unstable. This in turn affects your health, work and relationships.

There are many different factors that contribute to insomnia such as various medical conditions, medications, too many stimulants and even eating too late at night. However, many people tend to lie awake at night because of stress. They worry about their family, health, work and finances. If you are one of these people, you may find sound therapy very helpful.

Today developments in technology have provided various ways of helping to deal with this problem. One of these is to play recordings of the noises found in nature. Listening to the music of nature and the natural world is one of the ways people suffering from insomnia can relax enough to fall asleep. Artistic soundscapes are created without using musical instruments but simply by the way in which the material is recorded, edited, mixed and arranged. The objective of these recordings is to create the most realistic nature experience possible.

These recordings of sounds like rain falling gently on foliage, rivers flowing, waves breaking and thunderstorms create a sense of peace and connection with nature. They allow unwanted noises like the barking of dogs or the sound of traffic to be blocked out. Everyone responds to sounds differently, depending on pleasant or unpleasant emotional associations. This is why most online sites selling these products offer the opportunity of listening to a sample.

There are people who find white noise helpful, particularly if they tend to focus on every little noise when trying to fall asleep. White noise is created by combining sound waves of many frequencies. It produces a kind of sound cocoon with a calming drone. White noise can also help those with tinnitus who experience horrible ringing in their own ears that can prevent them from sleeping.

However, many people find that the noises produced by nature, like ocean waves, offer more relaxation than white noise. As they listen to the cadences of nature, their heart rate and blood pressure drops and their stress levels are lowered. Before they realize it, their whole bodies have relaxed to the point where they fall asleep.

There are numerous sound recordings available online and some of them are even free to download. However, these recordings vary in quality. In order to purchase one that is really effective for you, you need to choose carefully. Once you have listened to samples and read customer reviews, you will have a better idea of what you want. You may be able to instantly download the recording once you have made payment or you may prefer to purchase a CD which is shipped to you.
