Essential oil diffuser
Studies have shown that lavender can help reduce anxiety. Try adding an oil diffuser to your bedroom and make the most of its calming effects.
Houseplants
Houseplants work wonders for your indoor environment. According to research, greenery not only helps to clear impurities out of the air but can also assist in reducing anxiety.
White noise
Getting more sleep is an important anti-anxiety strategy. Many people find they sleep better with background noise, such as white noise.
In addition, a recent study out of MindLab in the UK found the song Weightless by Marconi Union resulted in a whopping 65% reduction in their participants’ overall anxiety.

A quick YouTube search for ASMR will return plenty of results.
