Wave breathing
Each wave here lasts about eight seconds. Breathe in through your nose as the wave builds and out slowly as it falls. A few minutes is often enough to feel calmer.
Frequently asked questions
Can ocean sounds help with anxiety?
Slow, rhythmic sounds like waves can help slow your breathing, which is calming. Try breathing in as each wave rises and out as it fades.
Is it safe to sleep with noise on all night?
For adults, yes at a moderate volume — keep it quieter than a normal conversation (below about 50–60 dB). For babies, place the device at least 2 meters (7 ft) from the crib and keep the volume low, as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Does it work with my phone screen off?
Yes on most phones: the sound is played like music, so it keeps going when the screen locks. If your phone stops it, keep the screen on with low brightness, or add the page to your home screen.
