Why rain sounds are so relaxing

The sound of rain is considered white noise, which means it is a constant, steady sound that can help to drown out other noises in the environment. This can create a sense of peacefulness and relaxation.

The steady sound of rain drops is repetitive and predictable, which is soothing to our brains.

Finally, the sound of rain is associated with nature, which is bound to have a calming effect on our mind and bodies.

Rain sounds help us sleep!

The steady and repetitive sound of rain can helps to mask distracting noises around us, allowing our brain to relax and fall asleep faster.
