Calm Your Brain: Green Noise Meditation for Focus & ADHD
Is "White Noise" too harsh for you? Does your brain feel like it’s constantly vibrating with stress or ADHD chatter?In this episode of Calming Anxiety, we step away from the silence and tune into Green Noise—the specific sound frequency of nature.
Unlike the static of white noise, Green Noise sits in the mid-frequency range (like wind in heavy trees or a rushing river), which research suggests is the "Goldilocks" zone for the human nervous system.Whether you need 10 minutes to hack your focus for deep work or you need to "wash" your brain of anxiety before bed, this guided "Forest Bathing" session is your reset button.In this session, we will covers:
- The Green Frequency: Why your nervous system prefers the sound of wind and water over pure silence.
- Virtual Forest Bathing: A guided visualization to transport you from your desk (or bed) to an ancient, cool forest.
- The "Stream" Technique: How to visualize your racing thoughts flowing away like water over smooth stones.
- Somatic Safety: Using sound vibration to tell your body, "You are safe now."
