8. Quiet the Noise

White noise is basically all audible frequencies that human ears can hear, played at the same measure across the spectrum. The result is a sound that many people find very relaxing.

If noisy neighbors or roadway noise tend to keep you awake at night, white noise is a simple and inexpensive method to block out disturbing sounds. You may need some time to get used to white noise if it’s the first time you use it. Any white noise app should work fine; the only thing you have to do is check with your partner to ensure they are OK with it.

Surprisingly or not, white noise can bother some more than others. But if you seem to like it, the severity of your insomnia should improve.
