What is ASMR. Why are you whispering/so quiet. Autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR) is a neologism for a perceptual phenomenon characterized as a distinct, pleasurable tingling sensation in the head, scalp, back, or peripheral regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, or cognitive stimuli. Some earlier names for ASMR included attention induced euphoria and attention induced observant euphoria. Other attempts to describe the sensation refer to it as a tingle, trigger, "brain massage", "head tingle", "brain tingle" and "spine tingle". People who experience ASMR commonly report having different triggers that stimulate them. Some people find that ambient noise such as whispering and soft spoken speech stimulate ASMR. Many videos use binaural, stereo or “ear to ear” recording to simulate a 3D environment. 3D sounds from a person may elicit a tangible feeling of the person being near the listener, while certain kinds of ambient noise may simply sound pleasurable. Many viewers and listeners report an ASMR effect that relieves insomnia, anxiety, or panic attacks. More info on the official Wikipedia page for ASMR:.
