White Noise Machines:

A white noise machine helps to sooth the listener with various sounds such as white or pink static noises, or sounds such as rain or the ocean. Furthermore, it helps to block out intermittent noises that happen during the night for a more restful night sleep.
More information on what is a white noise machine:

To see if a noise machine helps, start by trying it out on your preexisting device like a cell phone or tablet. Find a white noise app for your device, or go to You Tube to find noises to try out. Remember to give yourself some time to acclimate to the sounds.
