# ASMR Tingles

Soft brushing, paper and tapping can evoke relaxing tingles for some people. Responses vary. Try one sound at a comfortable level; headphones reveal the left–right movement. No music is added automatically.

Sources include original synthesis and credited CC0 recordings. Scenes are edited sound simulations, not recordings of an entire real service.

## A gentler way to listen

Start with one sound at a comfortable low volume. Try another if it feels distracting. Evidence that noise improves sleep is mixed; a quiet room may suit you better. Dim the screen and keep a regular sleep routine. Scenes finish naturally unless repeat is enabled. Live programmes can change in volume or include vocals. These tools support relaxation; they do not treat insomnia.
