Silence at night isn’t always calming.

For the brain, it can feel unfamiliar.

For thousands of years, humans rested with rhythm around them — fire, wind, distant movement. These patterns signaled stability.

Modern silence removes reference points, so the body listens harder.

Sometimes rest doesn’t come from quiet, but from gentle, predictable rhythm.
