About these sounds
These simple tones are generated in your browser. They can help cover background noise while you wind down, but they are not a treatment for sleep problems.
Using them well
Keep the volume low, since steady sound should be a gentle background. Use headphones only if comfortable, and avoid falling asleep with in-ear buds. Do not use loud sound near babies or young children. See bedroom setup for more ideas.
When noise is the problem
If noise keeps waking you, consider earplugs or moving the bed. If you cannot sleep even in quiet, read why can’t I sleep.
