Why Sound Helps ADHD Brains

ADHD isn’t just about distraction — it’s about overstimulation, under-stimulation, and the constant hunt for balance. Different sound textures affect different nervous systems. For some, steady noise helps drown out mental noise. For others, it creates just enough sensory “weight” to feel grounded.

How Background Audio Helps ADHD

Finally breaking free from the endless loop of the same task spinning in your mind for hours, and actually getting started with a clear sense of direction.

Suddenly noticing you’ve been calm and collected for a solid 30 minutes straight, without even realizing the tension had lifted or the shift had happened.

Reaching for the same trusted sound every time you need to focus or work because it reliably helps you tune out distractions and get in the zone.

Using background audio as a shield to block out the chaos of a busy café, the noise in your flat, or the overwhelm of your own restless thoughts.

Drifting off to sleep effortlessly, without battling racing thoughts or the anxious silence that usually keeps your mind spinning late into the night.
