Here's Everything Our Wellness Editors Actually Use to Fall Asleep
Using the Manta White Noise Machine has been a game-changer for me as a light sleeper. I use it every single night. It's a small but mighty device with 15 different sleep sounds, including those popular fan and rain noises. I prefer the brown noise or an ocean sound setting, which lulls me gently to sleep and effectively masks the extraneous apartment noises that used to wake me up at night. With the speaker placed by our noisy street-facing window, I can control and adjust the sound from the bed with its simple remote. You can put it on a timer or keep it on all night until you shut it off in the morning, which is what I do. It's small and highly portable; I even bring it when traveling. — Aly Lopez Pros: Continuous noise (not looping) Small and portable Various soothing sound options No apps required Speaker plugs in, so you don't have to charge the battery Cons:
