Getting a good night’s sleep isn’t always easy, but listening to soothing sounds can help. Amazon Alexa Sleep Sounds includes a variety of relaxing selections that you can play on your Alexa devices.
5 Ways to Use Alexa for a Better Night's Sleep
Different sleep sounds come from different Alexa skills. For example, the Sleep Sounds skill lets you choose from a wide variety of sounds, including ocean waves, fireplace, rainforest, crickets, frogs, wind, rain, dishwasher, and waterfall. Zen Sounds includes options for thunderstorm, Japanese garden, beach, desert, wolf, or sailing sounds.
Whether you like the sound of rain, wind, thunder, the ocean, or ambient music, you can tell Alexa to play it for you. Other options include a guided meditation, a bedtime story, or white noise.
Several Alexa skills, like Short Bedtime Story, play you (or your kids) a story. Some, like Mindful Meditation, lead you through your choice of guided meditations. Still others, like Sleep Sounds: White Noise, offer, you guessed it, white noise. If bedtime music is more your thing, there are plenty of skills for that, too.
