Why rain sounds help you sleep
- The soft, random patter of rain is steady enough to mask other noises but varied enough to stay soothing rather than monotonous.
- Natural sounds like rain are linked with the body's relaxation response, helping your heart rate and mind settle.
- For many people rain carries a cosy, safe association that cues the body to wind down.
