Also anything you generally find relaxing that isn’t intended to be.

For reasons I cannot articulate, I never liked intentional ASMR videos, but give me an upload of a three hour video course about a word processor from the 80s or a training video about how to take a sonogram of the kidneys and I’m all in.

As for generally relaxing stuff, for some reason I find recordings of radio comms, like storm spotter nets, to be relaxing. Also local news coverage about major weather events.

And to you UK lemmings I know about the shipping forecast.

    Bob Ross, The Joy of Painting videos. Just a quiet voice and the sounds of brush on canvas.

      Yuttadhammo offers a free online meditation course as well! You can meet with him online once a week for meditation instructions. It’s pretty cool!

    Mowing videos. Not the one’s where they talk too much though.

    Some building channels are nice too, the ones that know to put on music.

    A lot of reiki videos, even when they weren’t intended to be ASMR, a lot of videos by the crafsman, some pokemon videos like JRose11 also work that way for me but sometimes he gets a little too excited or laughs kinda loud
