Noice: Natural calming noise

Relax and improve focus with natural calming noise.

For a lot of people, a little background noise is helpful to calm down and focus. Background noise can help minimise the effects of stress. In some cases, it's also a boost to productivity. It also helps people in masking their tinnitus.
