Many find that removing inflammatory foods from their diet, especially sugar and dairy, can be helpful

Avoiding stimulants such as coffee, chocolate, caffeinated tea, and nicotine, along with alcohol, can be helpful
Many find that avoiding stressful situations is an effective way of lessening the intensity of the symptoms (stress can often set off or worsen tinnitus)
If you notice your tinnitus gets worse in quiet areas, adding noise to the room you’re in such as a sound machine, music, or a podcast or radio show, may help distract from the sound
Getting enough sleep is important
For some, acupuncture, Reiki, craniosacral therapy, or bodywork can help (for others in withdrawal, these therapies can be overly stimulating, so be sure to listen to your body)
Hypnosis can be helpful
Try shifting your mindset about the ringing: rather than see it as a scary problem you wish were gone, welcome it in as a temporary, if sometimes unpleasant, visitor. For example, some people believe that tinnitus is the inner sound of one’s own nervous system working – so consider the possibility that you may be hearing the healing within you happening.
