Who has trouble sleeping?
Anyone have a busy head?

#BrownNoise, which contains lower frequencies many find soothing, is similar to the brain's resting state, which is why it helps people to #relax. Brown noise playlists have also been created to mimics the sound inside a mother's womb to sooth babies.

You can tune it to the frequency that works best for you, a low noise-canceling or droning sound that helps your brain relax. #ADHD #Insomnia

@inkstainedmags BTW a slightly lighter *child* lays on my chest (cat) and the warmth and purring do help me fall asleep, even when I'm not tired. Sometimes, just to give my back a rest from sitting most of the day, I lay down for evening news and a cat lays on my chest.. I might miss the whole news. I've been experimenting with #BrownNoise to block out a busy brain so I can sleep https://mynoise.net/NoiseMachines/anamnesisSoundscapeGenerator.php

@kayaker2 I have #ADHD. My mind is always busy. To turn it off, I have to be physically exhausted enough to pass-out to sleep. If I wake, for any reason, mind is too active to return to sleep. I sleep 4 hours. I know what time I *passed out* by the time I wake. (4 hours later).
I've tried lots of *remedies* but recently experimenting with #BrownNoise where certain frequencies block out distractions https://mynoise.net/NoiseMachines/anamnesisSoundscapeGenerator.php Play with this, see if it might help you?

@Laighe Neither had I!
In my own self-interests, reading about #BrownNoise, someone sent me this, and it's so adjustable. I find the lower range sounds, a low din, cancels irritating and nervous sounds.
IE, the sound of the oil truck filling tanks in the neighbourhood. The fuel pump WHINES, and the high pitch alarms me. I can cancel that sound with this sound generator. It's pretty cool, and works for some people. Keep it bookmarked

@Laighe I'm aging. it's normal for seniors to get less sleep but this is a bit much. I always thrived on 4 hours, I had a background in 4 hour sleep sessions (Navy) but if I am interrupted, for any reason, a pee, a cat, a car squealing tires, that's the start of my day, no matter if it is 1am or 3am. I prefer 5am. I've tried exercise before bed, hot showers to relax, *jujubes 😉*, & #BrownNoise (that one is interesting, maybe this helps you?) https://mynoise.net/NoiseMachines/anamnesisSoundscapeGenerator.php Play with settings as desired

🎥 El hashtag #BrownNoise tiene más de 86 millones de vistas en TikTok y los videos más exitosos muestran a personas con TDHA grabando sus reacciones al exponerse a él, pero ¿qué es el 'ruido marrón'?

@The_Dark_Tower Now I am right into reading up on this.. You poked the bear LOL , and I wanted to tell you about something else I recently was introduced to (On Mastodon, nonetheless) it's noise cancelling tones. Distracting sounds cancelled out. I tried it with some success already, as I was looking for the right frequency for me. I was investigating #BrownNoise
https://mynoise.net/NoiseMachines/anamnesisSoundscapeGenerator.php

Pro-tip if your critters are not enjoying the fireworks noise. Youtube has free hours of video recording of brown noise, which is deeper than white or pink noise. My dogs seriously calm down with this base sound. Firecrackers fade into nothing.
What are your tricks?#DogsOfMastodon #brownnoise

What's this? An hour-long low-frequency-filtered noise drone. I've seen enough articles about it that I thought to resurrect and expand an experiment I played with in 2017. Apparently people are calling this #brownnoise now.

Headphones and low volume recommended.

Happy and noisy new year!

Played brown noise to try help me switch off / sleep and I ended up dreaming I was being attacked by a swarm of wasps! Woke up with my heart racing, well that worked! (Would have been better if it was the rugby team)

Keep getting distracted when working from home? Try nature sounds, white noise, and brown noise (our favourite) to drown out distractions.

@lauralmcnabb What time are you working? Or is this your resting work face? #LOL
I'll get my groceries after lunch and try to nap before supper. An hour or two will get me on track to sleep at midnight tonight (I hope) after the moon rises (In case the sky clears briefly to see the moon, there's an Occultation tonight)
I recently found some #BrownNoise therapy. Still too new at the game to have any answers, but it helps https://mynoise.net/NoiseMachines/anamnesisSoundscapeGenerator.php I play with frequencies until I find 1 that blocks

Imagine a deep, static rumble, like the low roar of a jet engine. The sound is called brown noise and has become popular among people with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder as a tool to help them focus or relax.

For some people with #ADHD, neuron signals in the brain are like fireworks exploding in all directions. The result can be a “noisy” head with chaotic thoughts competing for attention. The low rumble of #BrownNoise quiets the brain.

The hardest thing about using a concentration aid (like #brownnoise) is that you actually still have to *do* the concentrating …

Highly amused by my #SpotifyWrapped this year. I know for a fact that my top played was ambient nature sounds like rain and beach waves and not a musical artists per se, but the few times I sulked listening to upbeat sad songs are what spotify thinks my market is. Not wrong, just not 100% truthful. #brownNoise

Never been diagnosed with ADHD but #brownnoise does wonders for me.

Gonna try listening to some brown noise while I try to debug this Lando WP issue. Hopefully it’ll help me focus #webdev #brownnoise #wordpress #lando

@EmmaByrneAuthor My pleasure! I'm curious about #BrownNoise for napping. :) It may be the closest to TV droning, which puts me to sleep.
