ADHD Support

The best sounds for ADHD support are sounds that provide steady auditory stimulations that will mask distracting background noises and prevent the brain from wandering around. Thus, choose ambient, low-frequency soundscapes, video game soundtracks, and binaural beats as they are highly effective. These auditory environments provide a stable and consistent mental stimulation with no triggering of any of the distractions linked with sudden changes in tempo or unpredictable vocals.

Top Sound Profiles for ADHD

• Video Game Soundtracks: These soundtracks are designed to be engaging without distracting the player. For e.g., tracks from games like Minecraft or Skyrim will maintain the video player’s focus during times when they are performing tedious tasks.

• Binaural Beats: Studies have shown that listening to distinct and different frequencies in each ear has been found to encourage the brain to produce alpha (relaxation) or theta (focus) waves.

• Lo-Fi & Ambient Music: These are predictable, repetitive rhythms that filter out background noise.

• Brown and Pink Noise: These deeper, "rushing" sounds mask harsh environmental noises to promote a calm and serene response.

Why This Works

ADHD sufferers often have to look for extra stimulation to compensate and make up for the under-arousal in the prefrontal cortex of the brain. The right sound can act as a stabilising "auditory anchor," to occupy the brain's craving for background input so the rest of your mind can concentrate on and perform the primary task at hand.
