Quieting Your Mind for Sleep & Relaxation (ASMR)

I attempt to quiet your mind and all of your worries, concerns and thoughts that may keep you awake or ruminating incessantly (and perhaps unnecessarily) so that you can get a decent rest and/or sleep. Minimal speaking, though I do ramble a little bit here and there about non-political stuff like how you should try to worry less about things you can't control: 00:00:56 Air writing IHYADW 00:02:45 Calming hand motions 00:05:45 "Waves of Relaxation" (jacket sounds) 00:09:36 Rucksack sounds 00:13:10 Packing up your thoughts & worries 00:17:38 The Sounds of Sleep 00:22:58 Ear to Ear Ear of Corn 00:27:38 Old faithful 00:33:10 Lil' green take-out food container thingy 00:36:23 Tissue Package of the, well, in this case: H.

ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. It's a non-scientific word that an everyday person came up with to describe 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, personal attention or watching someone perform a task. It's like goosebumps but much more pleasant and without the uncomfortable chills. ASMR videos are meant to intentionally induce this sensation in the viewer, often referred to as "tingles", but the videos also serve to provide a relaxing, calming and soothing experience for the viewer. Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy the videos for their calming and sleepy effect.
