White, Pink, Blue, Green, And Brown Noise: What’s The Difference Between These Therapeutic Sounds?

Have you been so stressed lately that relaxing at the end of the day or falling asleep at night feels impossible? Do you find that meditating in complete silence doesn’t improve your concentration? If your answer to any of these two questions is a sound “yes,” you’ve come to the right place. Today, we’ll introduce you to an effective form to build a unique sense of wellness: noise, a sound signal that plays at a constant spectral frequency that helps ease your mind. Let’s see what types of therapeutic sounds exist!

What do you get if you put all seven colors of the rainbow together? White light, right? Well, just as white is the sum of all colors, white noise is the sum of all audible frequencies sounding at an equal amplitude.

White noise is similar to the slightly metallic static from a TV caught between channels or an empty radio station. Historically, this has been used to help people focus by blocking out the nagging thoughts that may distract them from a particular task.
