Sleep hygiene
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_hygiene
i.e. controlling behavioral and environmental practices that affect sleep, may provide relief. Sometimes relaxing is the key.
One thing that naturally aids falling asleep is calming white noise. It soothes the mind and helps to fade out nagging thoughts or surrounding noise. Whether you are looking for a way to fall asleep quickly or to calm down for a power nap, free white noise can help.
Here is a collection of six pages that provide different types of free white noise and music for better sleep and relaxation.
1. RainyMood
http://www.rainymood.com/
features a 15-minute high-quality loop of various types of free white noise including gentle rain sound, accompanied by thunder and chirping birds.
The site recommends to combine the free white noise with your favorite music, which indeed works very well.
2. White Noise 24/7
http://whitenoise247.net/
This website offers more than just “a random signal with a flat power spectral density“, i.e. free
white noise.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_noise
You can playback nature sounds, e.g. a flowing river or hard rain, and mechanical sounds, including a washing machine and ventilator. Some of the free
white noise can also be downloaded, which is very convenient in case you don’t want to go to bed with your iPod, rather than your computer running all night.
3. WhiteNoisePlayer
http://www.whitenoiseplayer.com/
For those of you suffering from Tinnitus
or annoying sounds from the outside, free white noise may provide a major relief. At WhiteNoisePlayer you can choose from eight different sounds, like
the radio, crickets, or wind and play them indefinitely.
4. SoundSleeping
http://www.soundsleeping.com/
SoundSleeping lets you create your own relaxing sound mix. You can pick from four controllers with nine natural sounds each and a fifth controller with
four music sounds. For each controller you can individually adjust the volume. A “How To” explains what the different sounds are good for and what steps
you can take to sleep better in general.
5. Last.fm's
Absolute Sleep Music Radio
http://www.last.fm/listen/artist/Absolute%2BSleep%2BMusic/similarartists#pane=webRadioPlayer&station=%252Flisten%252Fartist%252FAbsolute%252BSleep%252BMusic%252Fsimilarartists
You can also create a relaxing mix on Last.fm or listen to a dedicated station. This station contains soothing tunes and sound collections that can help
you relax. Since the tracks change every few minutes, the station is probably less suited for falling asleep. However, it’s excellent background material
for Yoga or Tai-Chi.
6. NapSounds
http://www.napsounds.com/
Finally, if it’s not sleep you desire, but a short and refreshing nap, give NapSounds a try. You can replay the tunes online or download and listen to them
on your favorite mp3 player. Choose from electronic, classic or nature background music or sounds and nap away.
