Alexa Skill Review: Sleep and Relaxation Sounds

It's been a few weeks since I reviewed some Alexa Skills.

I've got a good one for you to try this week. I've tried it, and it really helps me relax at night.

If you're anxious and worried because of COVID, maybe you could use a little support in the relaxation department too.

Sleep and Relaxation Sounds

This may be just what you need. With a 4.8 out of 5 stars rating from 15,436 reviews, you know it's got to be effective.

When enabled, the skill is available instantly on your connected Alexa device. It supports English and 1 other language.Best of all it's free.

The skill lets you play ambient sounds to help you sleep peacefully or block out unwanted noise at work or home. There are more than 125 high quality sounds to choose from.

You may sleep better, but you can also use it to help you stay focused, study without interruption, relax quickly, and meditate more effectively. It's supposed to help you get a baby to go to sleep faster, but I wans't able to test that. *g*
