5 Ways to Use White Noise

by C. Sumner

White noise is the art of using generic background noise to cover up distracting sounds in an environment. White noise can be invaluable when you need to tune out the excess noise around you. It can create a more relaxed environment with greater productivity and less distraction.

Here are a few of the ways you can utilize white noise in your daily life.

1. For work. On average, a person loses up to two hours of work time each day due to distractions. Portable white noise covers up those distracting conversations and lets you focus on your work. A sound masking system throughout the office will benefit everyone in the office.

2. For sleep. Do you ever have trouble falling (or staying) asleep because of annoying sounds? White noise covers up interruptive sound, helping you sleep through street noise, or unfamiliar hotel sounds while traveling. The result is a better night's sleep at home or on the road.

3. For kids. Sound machines can work wonders with kid's sensitive sleep schedules. Whether you are teaching your kids to share a room, or need them to sleep even when there is still noise in the house, white noise can help them sleep through the interruptions. And when they sleep better, you sleep better.

4. For relaxation. After a long day at work, you want to come home to relax and unwind, but a barking dog across the street is interrupting your reverie. Use white noise to block the sounds. Or better yet, use a sound machine with nature sound and relax to the sound of flowing water.

5. For tinnitus. Ringing in your ears, also known as tinnitus can be very distracting and uncomfortable. Some sound therapies have been proven to lessen the discomfort of this condition, allowing you to relax.

Portable white noise may not be for everyone, but many people have used sound masking to increase their productivity at work and decrease their interruptions at night. Through office-wide sound masking, the entire office can benefit from the added concentration and privacy. Try this amazing technology for yourself, and begin enjoying the benefits of improved concentration and better sleep!
