Weird ASMR Triggers.

[RedmanWasHere]

What weird things or sounds make you feel relaxed?

Flowing water always does it be they waterfalls or rivers.
Some voices too (e.g. Bob Ross and, for '90's folk, Nikki McCarthy.)
Some drum beats seem to relax me (David Bowie - Heroes and Dead Can Dance - Amnesia as examples.)
Strangely, some pavers clapping together when being laid out do too.

Definitely the sound of water, I listen to rain sounds to help me sleep at night.

i hate the sound of eating in real life, but watching ASMR eating videos makes me feel very relaxed.

Have you bought thunderstorm CD's?

I don't have a CD player
I just play it through an app on my phone.

I find the sounds of a good storm relaxing. I also love the ocean on stormy days and the sounds of waves crashing on to the beaches

I can't watch some Basketball games or some Tennis matches as the sound of the basketball bouncing on some flooring and the tennis balls being hit makes me fall asleep.

Likewise Swimming without the commentary although that makes me thirsty.

The sound of Damien Barretts voice sends me straight to sleep.

My ringtone is Buffalo Bill/Jame Gumb from The Silence of The Lambs saying 'Oh wait....is she a great big fat person?' - I find this relaxing.

Cooking videos with step by step instruction. Only when there is no music in the background.

This girl does a whole series of videos dedicated to ASMR. This present wrapping video is the most relaxing thing ever...

Vacuum cleaners and clothes dryers

My mum used to vacuum to send me to sleep as a kid, still works now

And I wake up anytime the clothes dryer stops if it's been running when I go to bed. Kind of annoying

Also the ocean. I just sit on the rocks for hours, eyes closed, listening to the crashing waves, perfectly content unless someone puts a fishing rod in my hand!

Peppermint tea.

Watching someone makeme tea or do housework.
