Sit back, relax, and set the mood for a soothing night with these flowing ambient soundscapes. You've spent too much time stressing through your day. Now it's time to be calm, meditate, and breathe your way into a deep state of chill. Can Music Help You Fall Asleep? Yes! According to this well referenced article from SleepFoundation.org: Playing music before bed may decrease the time it takes to fall asleep and improve sleep quality. Music has been shown to decrease levels of a stress hormone called cortisol. Music triggers the release of dopamine, which can boost good feelings at bedtime and may help manage pain. Try falling asleep to music that is relaxing or slower, around 60 to 80 beats per minute. Parents know from experience that lullabies and gentle rhythms can help babies to fall asleep. Science supports this common observation, showing that children of all ages, from premature infants (research) to elementary school children (research), sleep better after listening to soothing melodies. Fortunately, children aren’t the only ones who can benefit from lullabies before bedtime. People across age groups report better sleep quality after listening to calming music. In one study, adults who listened to 45 minutes of music before going to sleep reported having better sleep quality beginning on the very first night (research). Even more encouraging is that this benefit appears to have a cumulative effect with study participants reporting better sleep the more often they incorporated music into their nightly routine. Based on the above research findings and the millions of people who use relaxing music to sleep every night, why not try incorporating long-format relaxing music such as Dream Machine into your nightly routine?
