Tessa Tingles ASMR

It's the perfect time to use up some of the apples from my trees and make them into something delicious but on the healthy side as desserts go. As an alternative to traditional apple pie, I'm making a crumble topping with almond flour, butter and date sugar for sweetener, plus a few extras from the spice cabinet. 

Whispering to describe what I'm doing throughout but intermittently.

First I get to skinning and slicing up the apples, slow to moderate pace, then transfer to a mixing bowl where they get date sugar and spices mixed in. After transferring back to the pie pan, I stir together the ingredients for the topping and voila!

I hope you enjoy!

Starting where we left off last week, I'll be reading through to chapter 15. 

All whispers, no other sounds, other than maybe the very occasional soft squeak of my chair etc. 

After a grocery haul, I begin by preparing some of my favorite healthy foods for cooking and adding to this week's meals. 

I usually try to eat mostly from my garden, but when I do go out for things that I can't produce myself I will usually pick up a few things that I either can't grow well, or just don't grow for various reasons. 

Whispering throughout, but not continuous. 

I try to keep the chopping and cutting sounds as soft as possible, but there are a few rather squeaky mushrooms! 

No cooking sounds, only the prep. If you want to hear that also, or anything else in particular leave me a message and I'll be happy to hear from you!

Thanks for listening :)

*If you've been following along, you may notice my comment about the rain being out of date, so I wanted to mention that I actually made these recordings a few weeks ago but hadn't finished the episode until this week. 

Today I'm working with a variety of plastics to bring you some calming ASMR sounds. There's a good bit of soft crinkling, some light tapping on a number of surfaces, some tracing of the materials with my fingertips, light clicking and in some cases the sound of rain hitting my roof in the background. 

As I usually do, the sounds get softer and slower towards the end to help you settle deeper into relaxation without any jarring sounds. 

There's no talking/whispering after the intro in this one. 

Thanks for listening!

A whispered but, I think, mostly intelligible reading of the classic Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. This is about the first 20 or so pages, and I'll continue the book next week with a few more chapters. If you're unfamiliar with the book, there's not much plot or action by today's standards, which makes it a great book to go to sleep to in my opinion. I hope you enjoy!

The first real rain in months arrived and saturated the thirsty soil this week. This is the sound of the rain falling onto my garden from the porch of my tiny house, around sunset. All the plants loved this nourishing boost for the last bit of growth before the frost comes and the days get shorter.

Just rain, no talking or other sounds.

Today I have a variety of paper products that I hope give you the tingles like they do for me. 

In this episode, I start with some paper cutting, and then move on to some tissue paper for lots of crinkling and crunching sounds, a cardboard box which I do some tracing and tapping on, some sheets of paper and a roll of paper towels. 

Extra soft, no talking.

I have a variety of plant materials to play with today to create a variety of sound experiences.  I mostly keep things slow and soft (a few crunches here and there in the beginning) for those of you who like to use these for getting to sleep like I do.  

There are some dried stems that I run across a plate for very light tapping sounds, some crunchy leaves that I slowly roll around, some seed heads that make a nice rattling sound as well as a good rustle, a hollow stem, and some stalks of grain and grasses. 

The last ten minutes are extra slow and quiet to help you drift right off.

The first 5 or so minutes is the chopping, so if that's not what you've come for, skip on ahead! 

No talking, just prep and eat.
