Is ASMR bad or healthy?

Is ASMR bad or healthy?

The cause of death is not known, but whether ASMR is really "healthy" is something we should take a closer look at:

It is clear that those people who are susceptible to ASMR can really enjoy this feeling. It is comparable to a pleasant goose skin, a slight tingling sensation on the head. So for many people it is a very pleasant feeling, which is caused by their own body, by our hormones.

We probably know this feeling best from cuddling. When we are lovingly embraced and our fingers touch each other, we usually feel love and security. Even in the womb we are closely bound to the body of our mothers in the stomach and are cuddled in security. For the child development the touch is even vital. When the skin is touched, the stimuli are transmitted to the brain, which then releases various substances such as dopamine and oxytocin - our feelings of happiness.

Even though we usually perceive ASMR only indirectly and have no personal physical contact, when we perceive it through videos or audio recordings, very similar sensations can be described and determined. Even if we are alone at the moment and nobody actually touches us, we can imagine this in our imagination and the body can remember the respective feeling. Even then the hormones and substances are actually produced, which give us a warm and pleasant feeling.

Some also love it, for example, when you run your fingers through their hair or scratch their back. And that too is actually a kind of ASMR - the very sensation that leaves us with a pleasant tingling sensation on the skin.

So you can clearly see that ASMR can also give your body this pleasant feeling, which helps you to reduce stress, lower your blood pressure and find inner peace. A dangerous overdose of happiness can be excluded. Thus can be determined:

Yes, ASMR is healthy!
