The Joy of ASMR #1 - "A Common Bond"

Welcome to the first in a new series that focuses on why we're all here: the joy that ASMR brings into our lives. With inspiration from the likes of Fred Rogers, Bob Ross, Uncle Floyd and many others, I wanted to create a consistent, ongoing down-to-earth, traditional ASMR series, without any theatrics or pretense, that not only takes me back to my roots and reminds me why we're here, but also provides a friendly, warm atmosphere. This series will be home to the majority of my traditional (ie. non-theatrical) ASMR videos, such as simple object exploration to comic book videos and more, with a new "topic" or "theme" each episode, or so that's my goal. Certain series, like ASMR & Beer for example, will remain under their existing titles. Thanks for watching and for your support. I hope you enjoy. E.R.

ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and is the current (non-scientific) name given to the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering and personal attention. ASMR videos are not only meant to help induce ASMR or "tingles", but also help provide a relaxing, calming and soothing experience for the viewer while helping to relieve their anxiety, stress, insomnia, to help those suffering with PTSD or depression, to serve as a study aid and more.
