Not everyone experiences ASMR. For those who do, the experience seems to be in response to various triggers or situations involving sight, touch or sound. The intensity of specific stimuli may vary, and while one person may respond to the sound of whispering, another person may experience ASMR while:
Talking softly or moving slowly
Tapping or typing
Close personal attention or eye contact
Massage, hair brushing or hair cuts
Humming or chewing
Light patterns
Slowly turning a page or folding paper
Scratching, crisp or squishing sounds
Squishing or crunching sounds
