Confession Time: I Love ASMR (And You Might Too!) 😱

Let's address the elephant in the room (or rather, the giant pot of seafood in the picture). Yes, my love for seafood boils is real – Alexis (aka Phaedra, you know who you are!), you're not dreaming! Seasoned shrimp, juicy sausage, and overflowing potatoes – it's basically a culinary love song. But there's another side to me, a side that might surprise you…

Here's the confession: I'm totally obsessed with ASMR. For those unfamiliar, ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. Basically, it's the feeling of tingles or relaxation triggered by certain sounds. Think crinkling paper,soft whispering, or gentle tapping. It might sound strange at first, but trust me, it's incredibly soothing! I could fall asleep to someone chewing their food 😭

I stumbled upon ASMR back in 2018 while browsing YouTube, and let me tell you, it was love at first tingle. My favorite types of ASMR videos are definitely the mukbangs (don't judge!) and the cleaning/stocking home videos. Something about the whispering sounds and meticulous organization just melts my stress away.

So, next time you see that seafood boil picture (and yes, I might be posting another one soon!), just remember – there's a whole other world of relaxation waiting to be explored. Want to join me down the ASMR rabbit hole? Check out a few of my favorite videos below and see if the tingles take hold!

Thanks for giving me a safe space 😂😂😂😂
