Unscramble the Blue Letters
So I worked with white noise. dB is blialsacy — dB is the name of the product, basically a white nsioe diffuser. This is white noise. The white noise is the sum of all feeiqnrecus that are audible by the human being, brought to the same itenstniy. And this noise is like a "shhhhhhhhhhhhh," like that. And this noise is the most neutral. It is the perfect sound for our ears and our brain. So when you hear this sound you feel like a kind of shelter, psrvereed from noise pollution. And when you hear the white noise, your biarn is immediately focused on it. And do not be disturbed any more by the other aggressive snuod. It seems to be magic. But it is just physiology. It's just in your brain. And in mine, I hope.

So I worked with white noise. dB is basically — dB is the name of the product, basically a white noise diffuser. This is white noise. The white noise is the sum of all frequencies that are audible by the human being, brought to the same intensity. And this noise is like a "shhhhhhhhhhhhh," like that. And this noise is the most neutral. It is the perfect sound for our ears and our brain. So when you hear this sound you feel like a kind of shelter, preserved from noise pollution. And when you hear the white noise, your brain is immediately focused on it. And do not be disturbed any more by the other aggressive sound. It seems to be magic. But it is just physiology. It's just in your brain. And in mine, I hope.
