Some people say there that ASMR relaxes them and helps them fall asleep.

It is believed that ASMR can trigger a pleasurable feeling in part of your brain called the primary motor cortex (PMc). The PMc controls things like pain, breathing, automatic processes, and more. Some researchers believe this area in the brain is larger in many people, leading to a harder time getting to sleep.
