People choose a sleep sound the way they choose a pillow: by trying a few and noticing what they stop hearing. The sounds that tend to last through a night are steady and low. Fans, soft rain, long ocean waves and deep noise colors such as brown and pink all share that quality. They keep one level, so nothing changes to catch your attention. Eventful sounds, like thunder, barking dogs, ticking or a sharp crackle, can be lovely in the evening but are harder to ignore in bed. Bright sounds may feel alert, and low ones feel settled. Try one for a week, keep it quiet enough to talk over, and use a sleep timer so it does not play all night.
