You can purchase a white
noise machine, but you can also use any safe machine that
emits a steady, low
noise, like a fan, washing machine,
radio set to static, cool mist humidifier or even a smartphone app.
But TVs
emit the same blue light, so if you prefer background
noise during the night, consider a white
noise machine or leaving the
radio on at a low volume, but ditch the TV, iPad, and other light -
emitting devices.
