At 4pm EST feel free to head over to @asmrglow for tonight’s/today’s live stream! The absolute Angel is doing a fundraiser for Whispaws 💜 Please join if you can! Welcome to a cosy close up whisper reading! This time with Epictetus 💜 A suggestion in a lovely comment mentioned this book and I’m so glad I ordered it! I hope you’re doing well and I’m looking forward to the next video where we will be cosy and Christmassy! 🤗 Epictetus would fit nicely in any English pub, with his own special seat and pint glass at the end of the bar. Everyone knows him in the village, he’s always in the pub. I like him 😁 There were a few quotes that I edited out as I thought they would be a bit triggering for some. Overall though the book is fun and insightful, I enjoyed discovering it for the first time with you! Apologies for all of the edits. I filmed too quickly after eating lunch and my stomach was giving you a digestion concert. These mics don’t hide a thing! 🤣 00:00 Intro and welcome 02:29 Information on paper 07:44 Preface and opening pages 12:09 Whisper reading Epictetus quotes 40:25 Goodnight, sleep tight
Thank you so much, Emma. You have helped me through some of the hardest times, finding ASMR in 2013 after losing my father at 23. Healing with your loving mother energy. I said goodbye to the most important thing in my life last month on the 13th, Archibald, my almost 11 year old corgi. Today has been especially hard. I can lay and relax now. Thank you, I know there are so many of us who feel grateful for your channel and love you share.
This was one of the first ASMRtists I ever found. I was 19, very stressed, and I learned that there were videos made specifically for sleeping to help soothe the mind. I’m now 27, life is still stressful, but Emma has shut down panic attacks and kept me company when I didn’t want any in very hard times. I hope someone blesses Emma in ways that none of uRe able to for the gift of unwavering peace she sends our way.
Epictetus was a deep thinker and he definitely had a sense of humor.😁 It's amazing on what one knows or has learned, being reflected and taught by someone far far back across time.🏺 This is incredibly relaxing but I'm trying to listen too.🥱 Thank you for sharing this Emma. It's very insightful. Have a lovely week ahead. Much love💜🤍💜🤍
This uas absolutely cemented my adoration for you. I love the stoics, I love sleeping, I love your voice. Thank you so, so much for sharing. These are all my favorite things
I absolutely love your reading videos. You have the best reading voice-your cadence and intonation feel so natural and easy-and I love the gentle sounds of your hands gliding along the pages. It's ASMR perfection for me. Thank you for sharing this with us!! 💛
Epictetus, along with Marcus Aurelius, are two of the most important stoic philosophers. Marcus Aurelius is a name you may have heard of as he was a Roman emperor, but he cited Epictetus, a slave, as a major influence on his thought. For the most powerful person in the (Roman) world to cite someone from the very lowest rung of society in those times was unheard of, and is a true testament to the stoic philosophy as an egalitarian method of understanding human beings as they are in the world. It relates to us all; rich or poor, young or old, wise or foolish. Thank you for making an ASMR vid on this topic Emma!
Perfect, wow! I have been watching and listening to you and other ASMR for years but never experienced anything like that, wow! Tingles, floating, tiny muscle spasms, wow! Intensity! I watch "sound treatment" with you and Maria quite frequently, one of my favorites. Also you did one where you went to a shop and made candles, but I cant find that one since. Anyway, saving this one for sure as it was so intense for me, and hope to hear more like it. Thank you so much!!! Merry Christmas!
These videos are by far my favourites. The most relaxing ones are just hearing your voice with any other trigger than your mouth sounds. Thanks for this
Found you several years back. And though you were doing pretty good then, im so happy for how well your channel is doing now a days! Thanks for all the great videos you darling lady
Hi Emma, I hope you are doing well.❤ I love these vintage book series, because here in Toronto, we have so many vintage book store, and I like to do the treasures hunting, I definitely will put this one in my list, and try to look for it next time.😊😍 Anyway, bye for now and hope to see you in Sharon's live at 4 pm for Whispaws!!!!❤😊
I’ve seen a lot of ASMR videos but Emma, u seem to be the most I go back to a view. My favourites are the reading and the touching of the letters that works best for me
What a wonderful video ❤ This resonates so much with modern thinking, you're right. As well as other ancient philosophies and belief systems. I shall explore Epictetus some more. Love your reading videos, very relaxing 😊
Wonderful video, Emma. I’m several hours late watching this, but man was it worth the wait. I also had never heard of this book before, so it was definitely interesting hearing you read it, even though I’m not currently interested in types of books like this one. Everything sounded wonderful in this. I especially enjoyed the book tapping, paper and gentle fabric rustling sounds, as well as the gentle reading in this, so thank you for including all of those. Lovely video as always. Hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy. Keep up the great work.
Yay!!! I'm so happy to open RU-vid to see your video first. You are the absolute best here, and no one can even come close! Thank you so much, Emma!! 💜
💜 Hello my lovely sweet Emma 💜 I hope you’re doing well. I was just helping my mom get the Christmas tree together. We’ve been putting that on hold because we don’t trust my cat Mickey, he’s constantly getting into trouble. Then I had some grocery shopping to do this morning so I’m pretty tired and sore now. It’s nice to just sit and relax right now with a new video from you. Anyway, thank you so much for another lovely video. You truly are the best! Lots and lots of love from me! 💜💕❤️💕💜
This is a wonderful video Emma🙂 Thanks so much for all your hard work and commitment. Your passion for ASMR always shines through 💯 Merry Xmas & all the best for 2024👍
You are incredibly good at this. The way you gently move your hands and nails across the paper is exhilarating, and the way you whisper just loud enough to get across what you are saying is perfect. There are times when I can barely understand what you are saying because of your accent and soft-spoken quality, but I like that. Sometimes I just like to listen to a person as they whisper so softly all I hear are the sounds that form their words. I can tune in and listen if I choose to or tune out and just enjoy the sounds, so it’s a fine balance you’ve struck. I first listened to you read The Velveteen Rabbit, and was in bliss, and now that I see you have more videos you can bet I’ll watch many more. Thank you for the great content and relaxation you bring.
How many of us had someone like Emma early on but now are at the head of the boat getting all the rain in the face with no one to comfort them or take control of the boat for awhile? No one? Ok. But I was going somewhere with that I think. Never mind.
Hi Emma, do you know that ads have started playing at the ends of your videos? This was never the case before, its woken me up a couple of times. Just wanted to let you know in case you weren't aware. I know some ASMR artists have ads at the ends of their videos purposely though. I will be more careful to set the vid up right before going to sleep. Beautiful video, thank you for sharing this book with us.
Hi Anne Marie, I wasn't sure if they were playing that much but clearly they are. RU-vid recently took away the option to turn them off at the end of our videos. I always used to turn them off and now I can't. I'm sorry. If I learn a way we can get around it somehow. I will let everyone know!
emma!! if you're still looking for a dupe, people are talking about a possible dupe for charlotte tilburry's pillow talk, it's colourpop's double down shade
Hi Emma, Mike here in Northern California, I’ve been watching your videos for years , your hand movements and gentle speech is hypnotizing and helps me to sleep, I’m just a normal guy who does guy type things, and please forgive me for asking, but why do women not put nail polish on the underside of their nails, I noticed that on this wonderful video, especially on your thumb nails , I think it would make them more finished looking,
Hi Mike, thank you for saying hello and for your kind words! That’s a good question. I think the answer would be that they would look less natural, perhaps a bit unusual. I actually tried it once many years ago and it looked odd on camera, I thought. I just try to keep them clean now. I know what you mean though! Maybe someone could make it fashionable 😊
She doesn’t do it on purpose. Like many other do with their annoying Clicky clacky mouth sounds. The thing that makes her a wonderful ASMRtist is simply that!
