Jasmin Ojalainen is a 3rd year undergraduate student at City University London in the United Kingdom. She is a Journalism major and was recently assigned to write an article as a final project in a Science Journalism class.
Jasmin chose to write her scientific article about ASMR.
She interviewed individuals whom experience ASMR, ASMR researchers at the University of Sheffield, a neuroscientist at Liverpool John Moores University, myself, and she additionally included some data from the first peer-reviewed publication about ASMR.
One of the key aspects of ASMR is that it is a very relaxing state which seems to de-stress the mind and body.
Emma Barrett and Nick Davis actually proposed a body map of the ASMR sensation in their 2015 research paper.
The big similarity between WhisperingLife’s first whisper video channel and the relaxation video channels which preceded her channel is that both channel types relaxed and soothed the viewers.
People often stumble across ASMR when searching for natural methods and products to help them sleep.
