Research has shown that flowing water sounds reduce the sympathetic ("fight or flight") response and activate the restorative parasympathetic response (Gould van Praag et al., 2017); reduce anxiety and improve mood, thus, promoting deep physical relaxation conducive to sleep (Medvedev et al., 2015) and by providing a rhythmic, steady background that smooths out sharp acoustic spikes without overstimulating the brain create beneficial sleeping conditions (Buxton et al., 2021). I hope you'll sleep well!
