For The Insomniacs

That’s the road plenty of people (myself included) take when we find it hard to put our devices down and put ourselves to bed. When you find the right sleep music for you — it can be a video with nature sounds, meditative instrumentals or white noise paired with a soothing (preferably dark) screen — you’ll find that it’s just a bit easier to block out anything that isn’t soothing, calming or sleep-friendly.

To help you insomniacs out, we rounded up some of our favorite chill dark screen sleep videos. May you never stay awake long enough to reach the end of them!

Thunder and Rain

You don’t have to be outdoorsy to appreciate the sweet sounds of nature. A good thunder or rain storm video can be such a soothing soundtrack for snoozing. You can find ones that go from drizzle to full on capital-S storm and others with music or other nature sounds in the mix. Highly recommend.

If your tastes are a bit more musical and less woo-woo or au naturale this sleepy lo-fi radio station (also available via apple music) full of dreamy hip hop beats and instrumental might be up your alley.

Calming Black Screen

Slow, low frequency sounds aiming to help you sleep for a full satisfying eight hours, this video is long but consistently soothing.
