Sleeping With ASMR

Welcome to the Procrastination Pen and the latest series which is featuring ASMR. More specifically, videos which will soothe you back to sleep after you have woken for the third time from your most tenacious nightmare.

The output of these articles is a playlist of videos which you can watch in shuffle mode on YouTube (or more probably if you are trying to get some sleep – listen).

I will always put the playlist at the end of the article, so if you have no time, scroll straight to the end and pick it up from there.

Still here? Fantastic, let’s take a look at today’s video. As usual, I am not the first to look at this as a potential ASMR candidate. Some of the comments indicate that others were here before me and obviously at least some of them have found it helpful.

HEINE Direct Ophthalmoscopy — How to perform Ophthalmoscopy

It is a professionally produced video and as we have found with professionally produced videos it has notes to clarify what the contents are about.

At eight minutes twenty-two seconds not the longest that we have seen so far. This has a good narration track (potentially Brian, if so he has a good voice).

After a few minutes I found that the approach was wonderfully relaxing with, thankfully, no background noise at all. As an instructional video it is methodical and well-paced and gratifyingly, no unpleasant surprises.

The channel is HEINE Optotechnik with one hundred and thirty-three videos at the day I am looking at it. There are thirteen playlists so it seems best to identify a playlist which contains this video. Sadly, none of the playlists contain this video. The next technique I usually adopt is to scan all videos to see if the same “patient” or the same medical professional is in any of the others.

In this case there is not a fantastic view of the medical professional and there appears to be only one video with this “patient”.

In this case I tried videos which feature Brian Little as the narrator and came up with three (Including the one reviewed at the beginning of this article).

The voice is as good as before, the approach is still methodical but there is no patient examination in this particular video. There are no ASMR comments with the video, so it does not appear as popular as the last one. However, it lacks distracting background noise and has potential for relaxation, I think.

Familiar voice, similar approach, professionally recorded, there seems little to dislike. No comments from ASMR fans again so this is probably another unpopular one.

This one does include a patient examination (unlike the last one). Therefore it is more in tune with our standard approach, which is to feature medical examination videos.

Examining the rest of HEINE Optotechnik, there seems little else of value ASMR-wise at this moment in time, so I am unlikely to revisit. Still, we have three more videos for the playlist and we do not always find that.

The overall playlist of videos covered so far on the Procrastination Pen is here:

The videos weeded out because over time they are just not as good as the others is in this archive list:

I keep this in case subscribers to the Procrastination Pen have personal favourites that they want to hear.

The playlist of videos requiring age verification is here:

I can’t be bothered to stop my listening to log on, this interrupts the experience. You may not mind this in which case this list is for you.

I hope that you find the playlists restful and I hope you get plenty of sleep.
