Let's Talk Parenting - Parents are Human Too [ ASMR ]

When was the last time we paused a moment to give thought to the human beings behind the roles of our mothers and fathers, and the lives they have lived and experienced before becoming our parents? In this episode I discuss a variety of topics concerning the people who brought us or helped raise us into this world, and how like us, they are just as human, too.

ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and is the current, non-scientific name given to the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering, personal attention or watching someone perform a task. It's like goosebumps, but much more pleasant. ASMR videos are meant to intentionally help induce this sensation, also referred to as "tingles", but also provide a relaxing, calming, soothing, therapeutic and even entertaining experience for the viewer. Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy the videos for their calming and sleepy effect.
