so is it just me or has everyone felt this?:
some of these various triggers are enumerated in this article, including:
some people reportedly experience type A episodes, that is, experiences which seem to be induced by an individual's thought processes rather than external stimuli. (it is interesting to note that this category of ASMR experiences in particular have some commonality with certain types of mystical experiences.)
however, ASMR has been the subject of little research. it appears to have only recently become a subject of somewhat widespread discussion, largely due to internet communication (by the way, it's quite interesting to video search ASMR triggers).
thoughts?
Quote from: http://www.asmr-research.org/Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) is a physical sensation characterized by a pleasurable tingling that typically begins in the head and scalp, and often moves down the spine and through the limbs.

some of these various triggers are enumerated in this article, including:
- Someone showing you how to do something.
- Someone drawing on your body.
- When you listen to certain soft or distant, and usually repetitive, sounds like a bouncing tennis ball, trickling water, or construction noises like tapping hammers.
- People talking in a foreign or indigenous language.
- Someone doing something very slowly and carefully.
- When someone strokes or plays with your hair softly.
