Using White Noise cds to Improve Your Sleep

White noise cds are a cheaper alternative to white noise machines. You can buy cds with calming sounds of the rolling ocean, restful rain, the wind blowing through the trees, or sounds of nature are just a few of the cds which are available.

White noise cds work by masking any external noises, such as traffic nearby or noisy neighbours. They create sound waves that help to soothe your mind and body, which help you to have a peaceful night's sleep. They are very effective as a sleep aid for insomnia, but can also be used if you are travelling or staying in hotels, when unfamiliar noises can stop you from sleeping.

Most white noise cds run on a continuous loop, so just set your cd player on repeat, and it will play through the night.

An excellent cd to try is SOUNDS OF EARTH: RAIN IN THE COUNTRY, (please see picture to the right). This cd is just pure sounds of rain, with no other noises, such as birds chirping. If you want softer rain, just turn the volume down, or turn it up for louder rain sounds. Comforting sounds such as rain can often bring back good memories of childhood or other happy times in a persons life - and so help to promote sleep.
