Ambient

Ambient is said to have originated in the 1960s with the more notable releases being Music for Yoga Meditation and Other Joys and Music for Zen Meditation by Tony Scott, and Soothing Sounds for Baby by Raymond Scott. The genre never really had much commercial success with the music being branded boring by the general public but due to the internet its popularity has risen and is at its peak in popularity at the moment. Ambient music is often described as music that fits in with your everyday and it's often soothing and relaxes you.

If you want to put something in the background that'll help soothe you then Ambient is for you!
