Ocean Wave Sounds with Black Screen for Stress Relief, Deep Sleep, Meditation

Water sounds are a fan favorite for a reason. Listening to babbling brooks, pouring rain, or stormy seas can be deeply relaxing. Water sounds can also counteract abrupt noises like barking dogs, a partner’s snoring, or your neighbor’s super loud alarm going off.

Moreover, water sounds might help your mind and body prepare for sleep. According to a 2018 study, water sounds can help reduce the sympathetic response while increasing the parasympathetic response. That means that listening to water sounds might help you get into a “rest and digest” mode instead of a “fight or flight” mode.
