I always get a very relaxing feeling when a person shows me a card trick, this must be ASMR, yes?
Howdy all: I just read through all these interesting postings after discovering ASMR Online, and joined facepunch because I thought that perhaps some might find my own approach to body tingles interesting. I can trigger them anytime I want in various non-genital ways. My most recent discovery is what I call 'the Nose Buzz," although along the lines of humming, purring, motorboating the lips, the Razzberry (Bronx Cheer) and the homegrown toys, the Thwizzler, the Donkey Gruntler, The Thwisher and other body-mind favorites. Most of these are described online by clicking 'exercises' on this page: [url]http://www.raysender.com/obeata.html[/url] I developed the Nose Buzz after searching on line, and found this in response to suggestions on how to trigger a sneeze: “The easiest way is to put the tips of your fingers over your nostrils and hum, allowing just enough air to escape so that you can keep humming. Your nose will buzz and that makes you sneeze. Hope I helped!” This is very close to the Nose Buzz description that follows. It’s the ONLY thing I know that’s shudderingly THE most bliss-inducing to the point of putting my whole body into spasms of knee-knocking delight. So obviously pick a safe place to sit, and don't do it while driving, etc. Then: Place the tips of the thumb and forefinger over the openings of the nostrils such as to block them completely. Start humming through the nose and then loosen the fingertips enough to allow some air to escape. Move the fingertips around until you begin to trigger an intense vibration that tingles up your nose, over your head and down your back. It may take some adjustment of the fingertips until you get it right. Congratulations! I think you’ve just stimulated the subtle nerves known in yoga as the Ida and Pingala. Or at least I think that’s what’s happening. Also -- it's a great way to trigger a sneeze!
ER is my favorite. [video=youtube;ihZl99cgk5k]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihZl99cgk5k[/video]
[QUOTE=Klammyxxl;35955834]Have you ever had a moment where you completely zone out to a sound, and have a rush of tingly euphoria that prominently radiates from the back of your head, and moves down your spine? This is something I've experienced since I was a young child. I remember listening to sounds like pages turning, people chewing gum, even the sound of soft spoken person in a microphone. There I would sit in my own little world, feeling an incredibly pleasurable sensation, hoping that the sound would never end. What would surprise me about this phenomenon is the fact that I didn't want to tell anyone about it. I felt like I was crazy or something, I mean, it is a weird occurrence. What's even more surprising is the fact that I have yet to hear a single other person talk about this phenomenon, until toda The thing about this event is that I never really seem to remember it happening, until it's actually happening. Soon after, I would just brush it off as one of those things. But earlier today, I had it happen to me while I was watching a video on YouTube. Out of curiosity, I Googled "rush of euphoria corresponding to sound". And what did I see? A simple blog entry describing this occurrence exactly how I would experience it, and it even corresponds to the same types of sounds. Further exploration yielded in an actual crappy looking site dedicated to the research and support of this phenomenon. [url]www.asmr-research.org[/url] Here are some of the common external stimuli that trigger this event • Exposure to slow, accented, or unique speech patterns • Viewing educational or instructive videos or lectures • Experiencing a high empathetic or sympathetic reaction to an event • Enjoying a piece of art or music • Watching another person complete a task, often in a diligent, attentive manner - examples would be filling out a form, writing a check, going through a purse or bag, inspecting an item closely, etc. • Close, personal attention from another person • Haircuts, or other touch from another on head or back What perplexes me now is why this event is not explained? What could possibly cause this sensation? I usually hate it when people smack, it's actually one of those things that drives me batshit crazy. But why is there that one scenario where it's pleasurable to listen to? It baffles me. So I wonder, how common is this phenomenon? Do you experience it? What seems to really get you vibrating? Can you intensify the feeling in any way? What up? Some shit that kind of makes me tingle (Pretty sure this qualifies as the weird part of YouTube): The exact same thing happens to me since I was little I remember laying there and feeling a euphoric feeling rush thru my body and hearing a lil sound in my ears followed by a nice warm feeling I never understood it or talked about until I read your post I asked my brother and other people and they seem to have no idea of what I'm talking about he can't even understand the concept it seems Extra shit: "Official" website - [url]www.asmr-research.org[/url] Blog I read - [url]http://anti-valentine.hubpages.com/hub/ASMR[/url] Facebook page - [url]http://www.facebook.com/pages/ASMR-Research-Support/132726720084420[/url][/QUOTE]
I find ASMR circus very nice. Her videos are more relaxing than others + she always talks about video games, marvel movies and other good stuff.
