What kind of ASMR do you listen to? If you don't listen to ASMR, why not?
I like cotton swab and ear pick type ASMR. Lately I've been listening to some animated ASMR channels (my favorite) like sato ASMR and hayang ASMR. I almost exclusively listen to it at night or when I'm trying to sleep.
Feel free to drop your favorite channels, TikToks, or twitch stream ASMRs btw, we would all love to be exposed to more artists!
And if you don't watch ASMR, comment why you don't. Maybe the rest of us could change your mind!
It's irritating, especially considering how much of it is gross mouth noises. The closest to ASMR I'll go is a Chinese Youtuber than makes desserts. But that one is for the beauriful foods.
When I first learned ASMR several years ago I was really confused that people had to listen to leaves crunching and shit to feel the sensation, because I’ve been able to do it manually since before I could remember. I know not everyone can do that. It’s a fun trick showing someone I can give myself goosebumps at will.
scissor haircuts and spray bottles are big triggers. baba sen / cosmic barber thing was a good one, RIP.
also dig unintentional stuff, like the classic TM Lewin navy suit fitting and woo shit like mesmerism or really absurd chiropractic/energy healing. the kookier the better.
I don't do it too often but I love Heather Feather to pieces and miss her dearly. I usually don't listen to it for the tingling aspects of it but honestly someone just talking to me about something is deeply soothing
I haven't had much experience with ASMR. In fact - I think the last time I listened was ~5 years ago. I'm just not an ambient kind of guy. But this thread made me curious - maybe I'll listen to some vids for a minute or two and see if I change my mind.
