White noise machines have long been favored for their ability to drown out distractions and lull us into a peaceful slumber. However, there’s a new player in the realm of sleep sounds, and it’s the soothing whisper of “green noise”. Green noise is a relatively new entrant in the world of sleep soundscapes, but it’s derived from a concept as old as time – the soothing rustle of leaves, the gentle flow of a forest stream, or the harmonious chirping of crickets. While white noise can be a whirring fan, radio or television static, humming air conditioner, etc. Green noise can be beneficial for sleep because of its calming and masking properties, said Dr Nagda. “By masking background noises that might disturb sleep, it creates a soothing environment conducive to falling and staying asleep.”
