Have you checked out loops earplugs? I find the grocery store and some restaurants over stimulating and I wear those earplugs and it’s surprisingly relaxing. They don’t block everything, you can usually hear people talking right next to you, but everything is muted.

Any hacks on how to deal with being overstimulated while working in gastronomy? Sometimes in the middle of the day, I feel like a dog on New Year's Eve 🎆

That was my plan to buy them in May, thank you ♥️
