Living in the city, it can be hard to tune out all of the noise of the city. You start to settle into a nice sleep, only to hear the police sirens go screaming by. Then the neighbor's dog starts barking. Eventually that stops, and you are just about asleep when the trash collectors come through the neighborhood early. The next thing you know, it's 6 a.m. and you're clutching a coffee cup life a life preserver as you start getting ready for work. A sound machine could make a real difference in your life. The machines are small, simple to operate, and they can effectively block out all of the background noise that is keeping you up at night. Can you imagine the kind of blissful sleep you will be able to get without everything in the neighborhood constantly keeping you awake? A sound machine works as a buffer and mask for all those sleep ending sounds. While many people think of them as straight static generators, this is not true. Most of the machines don't even truly put out white noise. Instead, they work by pushing out pink noise, which is more soothing to the human ear. Yes, it is odd to think of sounds as having colors, but the scientific community has put some effort into finding the most effective buffering sounds in the world. With your sound machine, you can pretend that you live away from it all. You don't have to hear your neighbor stomping around his apartment. When the late night shift gets over, you don't have to listen to all the car doors slamming when people get home in your area. Instead, all you have to do is turn on the machine, adjust the volume to a comfortable level, and prepare yourself for a truly restful night of sleep. Escaping urban noise with a sound machine is a good alternative to tossing and turning and wasting hours laying awake, staring at the ceiling and willing the world to just be quiet. It is much better for your body than over the counter and prescription sleep aids, which can have nasty side effects and get you hooked on them. The machine simply works to make your home in the city a comforting oasis of calm, silence, and peace, so that no matter what is going on outside your walls, you can be sleeping peacefully inside them.
