Too often due to bad acoustics of the room, people use the TV at high volume. If one of the persons in your house insists on high volume in the TV, then create an alternate seating for him\/her near the TV if it is practical.<\/li>\n<li>If you are using earphones while talking over phone or listening to music, use a lower volume.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid noisy places like pubs with loud music, prefer lounge with soft music instead<\/li>\n<li>Avoid loud noise of jack hammers drilling in construction sites, loud traffic noise etc. Closed earphones covering your ears can give some relief from such noise.<\/li>\n<li>In the long run changing your windows to sound proof those will help a lot in reducing the noise levels.<\/li>\n<li>If you are using old equipment like mixers, grinders etc in kitchen, old fans and motors etc that make lot of noise, then either change the motors to new or replace those.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Certain Yoga practices like Bhramari etc helps in making your ears better. Try those.<\/p>\n<p>Also read our previous article on Noise pollution here:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"0kIWfpY4Wb\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiawilds.com\/diary\/a-primer-on-noise-pollution\/\">A Primer on Noise Pollution<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;A Primer on Noise Pollution&#8221; &#8212; Diary - Tales from Wild India | Conservation Magazine\" src=\"https:\/\/www.indiawilds.com\/diary\/a-primer-on-noise-pollution\/embed\/#?secret=0kIWfpY4Wb\" data-secret=\"0kIWfpY4Wb\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class='epvc-post-count'><span class='epvc-eye'><\/span>  <span class=\"epvc-count\"> 4,643<\/span><span class='epvc-label'> Views<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=indiawilds\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hearing Test Do you have Perfect Hearing?
