Introduction

Silence, often overlooked, can be a powerful tool in shaping our mental landscape. Recent studies suggest that intentional exposure to quiet environments may reduce stress, enhance creativity, and improve emotional regulation.

Methodology

Participants were exposed to a controlled auditory environment: a continuous stream of glitching white noise designed to simulate a silent backdrop with subtle auditory interference. The noise was generated using the Web Audio API, ensuring a consistent yet dynamic soundscape.

Results

Data collected over a 30‑minute session indicated a significant drop in self‑reported anxiety levels. Subjects also reported heightened focus and a sense of mental clarity, aligning with hypotheses that silence can act as a cognitive reset.

Conclusion

These findings underscore the therapeutic potential of silence. By integrating glitching white noise, we can create a nuanced auditory environment that encourages introspection and psychological well‑being.
