What is Pink Noise and How To Use It For Concentration?

Pink noise is a type of sound that contains equal energy per octave.

In simple terms, it is a type of noise with more low-frequency energy than high-frequency energy. 

The term "pink noise" comes from the analogy with the color spectrum, where pink light has lower frequencies than white light.

Pink noise is different from white noise, which has equal energy per frequency. White noise sounds like static and has equal intensity across all frequencies, making it sound somewhat harsh and flat to the human ear.

The benefit of pink noise lies in its balanced frequency distribution, which makes it useful for various applications:

Sound masking: Pink noise can be used to mask background sounds, making it easier to concentrate, relax, or sleep. Its balanced energy across different frequencies helps to cover a wide range of ambient noises without being overly distracting.

Testing and calibration: In audio and acoustic testing, pink noise is often used to analyze and calibrate audio equipment and speakers. Its balanced frequency distribution ensures that each frequency band is adequately tested and adjusted.

Tinnitus relief: Some studies have suggested that pink noise might help alleviate the symptoms of tinnitus (ringing in the ears) by reducing the perception of the ringing sound.

Sleep aid: Pink noise has been linked to improving sleep quality and enhancing deep sleep stages. Listening to pink noise during sleep may help some individuals fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.

Cognitive benefits: There is ongoing research into whether pink noise can improve cognitive functions such as memory and focus. Some studies have indicated that it might have a positive impact on brain activity.

Relaxation and meditation: Pink noise is often used in relaxation and meditation practices due to its soothing and calming properties.

我们来看看道德经的第三章。

不上贤，使民不争；不贵难得之货，使民不为盗；不见可欲，使民不乱。是以圣人之治也，虚其心，实其腹，弱其志，强其骨，恒使民无知、无欲也。使夫知不敢、弗为而已，则无不治矣。

第三章的内容，对许多人来说都是有争议的。Some people may not understand this chapter, because we tend to think intellects are good. 然而，老子看到了有才德的人的问题。In my understanding of this chapter, it means intellects bring about ego, which is not align with Tao. 表面上突出的事物会带来争斗。老子追求的是顺其自然，无为而治。竞争和欲望可以导致战乱，When I said the sage weakens people’s ambition, you may disagree, because our time is the age of ambition and everyone want to become better. But this also makes people anxious and overload. Lao Tzu advocates letting go and non-doing, go with how things are. 当所有人都满足于自己的生活，天下就会太平，不会有争斗。
