There are many different types of music and sound to assist us in the relaxation process of falling asleep.

• Classical music Cd's and tapes are a good way to unwind and put yourself in the mood for a good night's sleep. Brahms's "Lullaby", Mozart's "Baroque Music", and Waltzes" by Strauss are just a few examples of some of the most relaxing classical music.

• Ambient Electronica is another choice of music to snooze by. Soothing melodies, syncopated rhythms and gentle sound effects. Some examples of this type of music are The Orb, Future Sound of London, Aphex Twin and Brian Eno.
