Talking to Loved Ones About ASMR

It's hard out here for a tingler, especially since, as a recognized and named phenomenon, ASMR is so new. I believe people have probably experienced it for hundreds or thousands of years, but our community is young and unestablished. I hope to give you some talking points and personal insight into discussing ASMR with friends and family. It can be difficult, largely because they may not experience tingles or your level of serenity. My wish is to help bridge your experience to the understanding of your loved ones. Feel free to continue the discussion below! This is simple binaural audio, but it features some photos from my album, including both my devilishly handsome felines. You'll also see some super cute original drawings by my talented friend, Kira. Check her out at:   / kirasdrawing

To listen while using other apps, switch the player to Picture-in-Picture (PiP) during playback — it keeps playing in a small floating window (the screen stays on).

To listen with the screen fully off, in-browser playback stops by YouTube's design. Open the video in the YouTube app to keep listening where background playback is supported (e.g. with YouTube Premium).
