Hi Maria I have 2 children with autism and one of them has trouble sleeping which is my 8 year old daughter and she hasn't slept in her own bed for ages as she has trouble with sleeping in her own bed and I'm constantly in her bed for a peaceful nights sleep. I was getting stressed and someone told me about asmr so watched your video on KZbin and felt so relaxed and started to watch your video alot more and felt so relaxed and wondered if it would work with my 8 year old daughter and put headphones on and sat with her and she fell asleep and everytime she gets anxious of sleeping I put your video on KZbin on my ipad for her to listen and she sleeps so I would love to thank you so much as your soft voice has helped my daughter who couldn't go to sleep on her own for years now goes to asleep on her own by listening to your voice xx

Idk what it is about these older ASMR videos but they are literally the best. You can’t beat them!

[@SPG8989]

Because this was before they started trying to make everything high production and do too damn much. It was just simple asmr vids

[@ramosyesenia37]

Yupp^^

[@KatsKradleXX]

It would be amazing to have another bookstore/shop keeper video like this. I love the sounds of looking for the books and the behind the viewer/over the shoulder showcasing moments

[@Tmac92]

Honestly this is such a classic. The heel clicks, writing with the pen, paper sounds, personal attention, ugh 💗

[@kennedyschwartz1824]

It’s been 8 years and this is still one of the tingliest ASMR videos I’ve ever come across 😴

[@bgheadjack]

Same. I watch it all the time!

[@racheljaynes7988]

Agreed!

[@lauraparker396]

Yes, all of it, but esp when she is walking around looking for the books - her heels and the book sounds in that are so tingly

[@XOTWOD127]

Oh absolutely, nothing beats her old videos her natural unrehearsed voice is just magical! When ever I can’t find a good asmr video to relax or fall asleep to, I always come back to these old vids of Maria’s! Soooo tingly, just heavenly nothing beats them

[@nichollemiller345]

@@lauraparker396 that’s my favourite part! The heels plus book sounds are perfect. I’d die for a remake

[@TinyDolphinMusic]

For anybody else struggling with anxiety, I recommend one daily serving of GentleWhispering, to be ingested visually and aurally.

[@Kassiienovaa]

...I think I overdosed...

Side effects may include: -Calmness -Euphoria -A darn good nights sleep Ask your doctor if Gentle Whispering is right for you (spoiler: it is) -Drink- Listen responsibly.

[@gwest8127]

watching in 2019. I hope she does another book-themed video. This is my favorite of all time.

[@ciarah6493]

Still in 2020😴😴💖🇨🇮

[@elliebee6183]

This video is my favorite too. Still knocks me out, even when I don't get tingles.

[@Cati1022]

Rooby Roo it’s a sense of security during all the panic going on in the world

[@Sankis]

the part where she goes 'behind you' feels so good

[@tracystoutbehunin9303]

Rooby Roo I agree! Her Footsteps are sooo awesome in this.

[@bernhardmair6233]

i love the sound when you look for the books... shuffling books, tapping, soft flapping of the pages, numb claps of the book covers.. huge triggers :)

[@clemensgroth4702]

Happy 2025 to everyone. Anyone else still coming back to these older videos?

[@joshuasmith1215]

I like these videos more than the newer ones. I enjoy hearing the noise from the input volume being cranked up.

[@plmbc8384]

Hi I’m Korean. This is the video that was posted when I was 13 and I’m 19 now. I think it wonderful and thankful that I can still watch your video. I love you so much. 💛💛

[@lorabursic5288]

Today is exactly 9 years of this Role play. And still one of my favorite videos of You 😁

[@sdj01015]

When this video dropped back when it did, I was watching this video daily. 2013 ended up being a rough year for me and thus ASMR videos were my only way to relax. Still one of my favorites even to this day. I love how the video gradually gets more and more relaxing as it goes along.

[@agustinamagpie]

The sound of the high heels at the start, and the riffling through the pages casually and fast, for real the first few minutes of this video have no comparison. I've literally never found anything that scratches this specific itch so well

[@margaretmead6695]

it's that sound of heels walking slowly! and pages turning! reminds me of taking tests at school. My ASMR is why I always fell asleep in class!

[@CouchPotato-ej4of]

Even though its old, and not as sophisticated as a lot of Marias more recent work, this is still my go to video for tingles. I more or less know the words now but this has got me through some stressful times.

[@wendygray3729]

The strength literally goes out of my legs when i listen to Maria's old videos. It sounds more natural than the ones she does now

[@alwestcott8625]

I never knew I’d like the sound of her stepping around in high heels but I keep coming back here for it 💕

[@nichollemiller345]

Same! Heels plus book sounds equals my favourite video ever.

[@Michele1ELL]

please make more videos like this, with books! they are my favorite trigger

[@sp00kyjim20]

Yesss

[@CommonSenseMan25]

I’ve seen this about 500 times every watch puts me to sleep. Amazing asmr.

[@wasteofspace2303]

Yesss PLEASE Maria make an updated 2023 version of this. In this voice. Pleeeeeeease. ❤❤❤❤

[@tinatingles5419]

This is one of my favorite videos -- not only do I love the page-flipping (which is glorious), but I so enjoy the part where you're searching for books off-camera. For some reason, I love the sound of soft foot-tapping on a floor, especially when I can't see the person. (When I would take yoga, I loved it when we had our eyes closed in meditation and the yoga teacher would softly walk around the room barefoot on the hardwood floor.) Ahhh...the eccentricities of ASMR!

[@ricknineg]

I'm sure everyone would love to see another long books review sounds ASMR video. Can't wait!

[@SirBedlamProductions]

This remains one of my favorite videos of yours. The walking around and handling of the books and pages, along with your ASMR-perfect voice (I think just about everyone can agree on that), really works for me. Plus, more and more people are discovering and becoming a part of the ASMR community, and you have a lot to do with that. :D

[@jkahgdkjhafgsd]

+Sir Bedlam for me with headphones, hearing her is a torture, lel

[@SirBedlamProductions]

[phone] You do know where you are, right?

[@ik22199]

The part where you're looking for the books is sooo good! It's giving me loads of tingles. I wish you would do a whole video with just that and the sound of walking.

[@wallewallebitch]

maria, the sounds of your footsteps in the heels in this video (at the very beginning and when you are off camera looking for the books) are AMAZING please do more of this if the mood strikes I would love it so much!

[@itzz_mikaelaaxx]

I was looking for this comment!! I thought it was so nice too!!

[@itzz_mikaelaaxx]

I was looking for this comment! The footsteps were soo relaxing

[@skatardrummer1]

I have probably listened to this literally 100 times over the years. I couldn't find my headphones last night and couldn't sleep, but didn't want to wake my partner. So I tried watching the visuals of ASMR videos. I tried watching so many tracing videos because I find that relaxing and so many of them are so fast and abrasive I feel like at least to me. I love the way your hands just kind of have a flow to them. They're like an extension of your voice and the atmosphere you try to create in your videos. Not having sound was such a unique ASMR experience and it really got me thinking about how ASMR videos have evolved beyond just a sound experience.

[@isabellahamilton5694]

I’d love a 2023-2024 version of this video 🥰🥰🥰

[@Dangermaniac206]

Of course not! I got a permit in hell, I can have some of my blue stuff back xD

[@carlosblohm1022]

YOU WENT TO HELL?! But you did so many good things in your life

[@Over50sgamer]

Just love books and paper in these videos. They're huge triggers. Takes me back to my English teacher who used to leaf through the text book whilst I wondered why my head was buzzing.

[@kelamuni]

the walking in the large room at the beginning gave me tingles. anyone else? some good early asmr experiences for me were in a quiet library -- someone behind me studying by reading aloud but in a quiet whisper, someone else softly chewing gum and reading. the reverb in the large space seemed to help. maybe the library idea is just triggering me.

[@cheyennelolla2846]

I love her old videos 😩 I find them more relaxing

[@DbPrOdUcTiOnS83]

I lovelovelove everything about her!!! her voice, hand movements, gentleness, accent, smile...so tingly and relaxing and lovely!!!

[@JellieBee]

Just because it doesn't relax you doesn't mean its not ASMR. I, for one, only get ASMR strongly from stuff like fabrics and books, but some people find food slupring relaxing (whereas I want to vomit when I come across a food slurping ASMR - its not relaxing for me but it doesn't mean other people don't or can't benefit) and that's fine, because we're all different :)

[@prisonbreakchick07]

I too don't like eating of any kind asmr videos

[@CalmingKittenMultiverse]

Well said. Everybody has different triggers for ASMR. I for one enjoy slow page turning, soft speaking/whispering, deliberate counting of random items, and lice check role plays (particularly because it reminds me of when I was in school, we would get lice checks from time to time, and the very thin sticks they would use would produce such an intense tingling sensation that made it hard for me to concentrate, yet it was such a euphoric feeling at the same time, which is strongly related to what we experience nowadays, ASMR).

[@kingsleyreginald6269]

InstaBlaster

[@gvantsanadiradze7703]

Yeap true, I personally absolutely cant stand the tapping sounds - one of the most popular asmr triggers.

[@crespoopserc]

Well thanks for sharing this worthy advice. Very Inspiring

[@philstpier3495]

I'd love for you to do a video in this style again, the low fidelity audio helps with making the noises soft and crunchy, the roleplay is minimal, the godfather section, especially the enclosure, is soooo tingly and relaxing with all the moving paper. I bought the safari book and the godfather because of this haha

[@soyomo7]

You circling the continents is what triggers me the most! Those delicate hand gestures 😍

[@lillithlestrange666]

I suffer from regular flash backs and panic attacks due to anxiety and ptsd and listening to your videos has helped me be able to relax and breathe through an episode. So thank you very much :) xx

[@lavenderblue5730]

Years later this is still my favorite video. The heels in the beginning, the notebook, shuffling of papers, everything is excellent. Thank you Maria.

[@cristycarlton4547]

The whole sequence of going back and forth looking for the books and flipping through them basically makes my brain melt... I *love* that part. I replay it over and over and over again. And your voice is so relaxing Maria! You are so wonderful!

[@BellflowerProduction]

This is one of my favorites. You are a gem! You should do informative asmr... i feel like i could really learn a lot from you while relaxing at the same time! Maybe a geography or history lesson? Or even science, and you can do the experiments step by step? (clinking test tubes would be lovely) even if i fall asleep maybe i'll subliminally learn something :) just an idea... love what you do, thank you for being my stress relief!

[@jonesdaniel21]

Great idea!

[@skatardrummer1]

She has tons of Russian history, language studies ones and a how to use massage tools one

[@daanna6431]

I used to get asmr and sleepy in class when watching my desk partner look at my library books.

[@Michele1ELL]

books are my favorite sound/trigger. sitting in the library at school and watching/hearing people handling books, magazines, etc just melted me

[@CaseyCorigliano]

I loved watching my desk partner draw with slow, careful hand movements

[@alexandra_vic_]

I've come back to this video three nights in a row because I love soft speaking and page turning together, and this video is the absolute best I've ever found. Thank you so much!

[@buddysoldotna]

This video is my favorite. I have always loved books and reading before bed, so I think I naturally associate the sound of a creaking book binding or page flipping with sleep. Your good-natured voice over it all completely shuts down my busy brain. Thanks for all you do 🙏🙌🙏

[@airjrfra7189]

seeing in 2016. lol... the most relaxing voice of youtube ever. sooooo lovely

[@marthajenkins7276]

I will say I'm a reciverig addict that learning different. Ways to relax and your videos have proven to me that there's others ways instead of using thank you.,

[@jessica3497]

I hope you are still in recovery and thriving!

[@chuckbitner8616]

This is almost 10 years old now and it is still one of my favorite ASMR videos on KZbin.

[@lgjdks5436]

I just keep coming back to this one. No other ASMR video I've ever watched has given me more chills or relaxed me more than this one.

[@misfitsmistress5567]

Please more of the book searching, stacking, sorting sounds with the page manipulation. This is the only video I can find that has them. After listening dozens of times, it still works for me. No immunity.

[@SpaceMango]

I need a remake of this. Still one of my favorites. I love the off camera book searching. 🥴

[@jasminacortezonline]

when you looked for the first book, my ears were overwhelmed with joy!

[@OnceUponAThrift]

I go through phases of what kind of ASMR videos are my favorite. And then I will watch them on repeat through the month and they will give me instant tingles and sleep. Right now I can not get enough of this video and the library video. The sounds are amazing and I like listening to you talk about how the books. Thank you again Maria!

[@rhiannonm8132]

I always am hesitant to make suggestions, because I always love whatever content Maria happens to put out, but I would really love a video or a series of videos with Maria just... reading. It wouldn't have to be edited or with fancy mics, either. Anything she'd like to record, even just a reading of a book she wanted to read in her free time anyway. It could be a novel or a play or mythology or a short story or non-fiction or an article or poetry or a freaking maths textbook, I don't care. I just love her voice and whenever I try to listen to an audiobook or something, all I can think is, "I wish Maria were reading this!"

[@smithsc64]

I love the way you say "consultant today" in the opening. Your s's and t's are AWESOME.

[@mitchdags]

LITERALLY

[@vyseskies]

I'd say mother of ASMR

[@oceanpier]

I only realised my associations a few years ago. In college if someone was seated behind me and turning pages, it was if a dreamy, swoony, mesmerizing feeling came over me in waves - starting in my head, almost from my forehead, if that makes sense. I'm sure it goes back to when I was a child, falling asleep with my head in my mums lap, whilst she read a book.

[@tracystoutbehunin9303]

I just rediscovered this video from our beloved Maria, queen and pioneer of ASMR. This has soooo many elements I love! Her amazing voice. Rubbing the papers pages and book fronts. Turning pages and and the FOOTSTEPS!!! Like the old movies use to have!!! Before I ever knew anything about ASMR, as a young lady I LOVED footsteps in movies.

[@cordinavillasenor2610]

I used to play like this when I was little, talking softly and writing. Crazy how it's relaxing
