Have you ever heard of ASMR? ASMR is short for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response, and is a word that has become increasingly popular over the past year. Celebrities such as Ed Sheeran, Drake and Katy Perry are reportedly big fans, with the latter saying that ASMR has helped her get through tough times in her life. Even some YouTubers are using ASMR to help them fall asleep or to combat anxiety.

This article will answer the questions; What is ASMR and why is it famous?
ASMR is said to be brought on by gentle, calming sounds like whispering and soft tapping or scratching noises. However, research from ASMR University shows that it could possibly be linked closer to hearing sensitivity.
Research has also shown that a high percentage of people who have experienced ASMR before claim that it helped them with their insomnia, anxiety, and even depression.

Its a new name for the relaxing, altered state of consciousness (and other state of being different) known as ASMR, ASMP and AMRP (short for audiometrics, magnetometers and radars – basically scientific apparatus that measures the results of human arousal).

In the past, this form of content was pretty much restricted to people and art projects. Although now many people use this device, there is still much debate as to its real effects. Some people feel it adds to their lives while others use it for fun or while driving in their cars.

ASMR is the ASIAS of listening to pleasure noises. ASMR can make you feel a lot better in your personal life and it helps make you and the people around you to feel more comfortable and relaxed. That’s the reason why you can listen to some of the beautiful sounds that give you pleasure and maybe even fall in love with them, knowing that you are making someone feel great. The techniques that are used in ASMR to give you a great feeling are: humming or humming in silence, a self-sufficient vibration, unexpected sudden sounds, and feedback of sounds.

While the ‘art of asmrs’ might be seen as taboo or guilty by association, the phenomenon itself is a positive use of our nervous systems. It is an appealing yet sensual experience, akin to the sensation of enjoying a sharp flavor, and of enjoying the sensations inherent in massaging the skin. In an environment of exaggeration and uninhibitedness, this sensual realm offers the opportunity to perform the physical manipulation as intimately and in close proximity to your partner. If your partner is also experienced, this can provide a very gratifying exploration of this gift.

The words ‘passion,’ ‘gratification,’ ‘genuine,’ ‘unconventional’ and’sexy’ come to mind.
