I find a sustained gentle rain can put me to sleep.
I personally have a sound clip of a wildebeest’s cry as it is torn apart by jackals on loop

Apparently
“familiar sounds and those that we have learnt to associate with relaxation, cause people to feel relaxed; harsh sounds and those we associate with stress, cause people to feel stressed”

That is so 1970s.
We bought an alarm clock that had the sound of frogs and crickets that was supposed to help you sleep. After listening to it once, we couldn’t stand it anymore.

One important thing about the relaxing sound of nature is that it never repeats exactly. Any exact repeat will set your teeth on edge. And a second repeat will have you chucking the speaker out the window.
