Does anyone else love Maria aka Gentle Whispering? I've been following her for four years or so now and she comes across as an absolute sweetheart and very genuine. ASMR is one of those things that seem so weird when you first discover it but I wouldn't be without it now. Something about various random sounds like tapping and crinkling and people talking in lo-fi just soothe me and I'm grateful for it.

Any other fans of her here?

I adore her. She is the absolute GOAT of ASMR. Her stuff got me through some really tough times where I couldn't sleep and listening to her was the only thing that could make me switch off. Been watching since about 2014. There's a few other amazing channels I love too.

I hate all the ASMR that weirdos have taken over these days trying to make it into something sexual and it's clear they don't really get what it's meant to be. I don't mention I'm into it because of those people because then people assume you're into watching half naked women eating and licking everything in sight loudly 🤢

Love her!! I remember experiencing ASMR as a child but never knowing what it was. Her videos are the best, she has such a good range of ones to choose from and her soft voice is just so relaxing 😌

I also really enjoy SouthernASMR Sounds. Mary, who does the videos, is lovely! I don’t really like forced ASMR so don’t really like tapping on purpose but Mary is amazing at doing such natural ASMR hand movements and sounds! She does Aldi hauls which I never thought I’d enjoy watching someone show me what they got from the shops🤣

Ah I don't know about Maria. The one I follow to get to sleep is Goodnight Moon. Thoroughly recommended. She (Erin) is so good, she does all sorts of ASMR videos but has this amazing series called Babblebrook where she has a whole imaginary village with characters - sort of like Lord of the Rings. Sounds bonkers but is so good. She seems a lovely person too.
BTW I think her boyfriend is Morpheus mentioned in the post above.

Yes, I’d say Maria is definitely one of my favourites I still keep going back to her sleep inducing haircut video.

Loved seeing this pop up. I’ve been subscribed to her you tube channel for years! She’s my go to ASMR page when I’m really struggling to sleep. I think she’s amazing...

I remember watching Maria so long ago, when she was with her ex husband! This must have been at least 10 years ago or so. I don’t think ASMR even had a name back then. I don’t watch her much anymore (or any YouTube for that matter!) but I still go on her Instagram now and then because her little girl is adorable and she seems like a nice person, I feel weirdly invested in her life somehow!

Yes! She has lovely calm aura about her. I love her voice. I discovered her about 3yrs ago, so stockpiled many of her old videos.

Funny, I was only thinking that I hadn't listened to any ASMR for too long a time, so have watched a couple of her vids before bed this week. I need to make it more of a habit.

Did Whispers Red come after Maria? I like her videos, but still find Maria's the most relaxing.

Yes Maria is one of the OGs. I've been with her for 10 plus years now. Since the days of the ribbed dress and playing with the neaded curtains. I also used to love vic quinn who became mitzy whispers but doesn't upload anymore.

Ugh, that’s depressing 🥴 maybe she’s changed her mind after seeing what’s happened? Or after being in the same/ non propaganda world for a while 🥴
I hope so! I know her sister spoke out about the war on her YouTube channel, so I think people were hopeful that Maria would too. But she didn’t. I just find her attitude to be concerning, similar to the attitude of Mary from Southern ASMR Sounds regarding BLM.

I love Maria! I've been following her for about 3 years I think. She does seem so lovely and her videos really calm my anxiety. I also like ItsBlitzzz and I adore Lune Innate ❤

I've been watching her for about 9 or 10 years! I remember when she used to work at that company that sold medical goods and she used to stay after work and film her videos there, doing her salesperson roleplays. I still follow her now, on her IG and second channel too. I like how open she is about struggling to make friends as an adult, feeling lonely, and she is very honest about some dangerous situations in her past life. A very strong lady 💪🏻

I do understand that. But I also see influencers or people with a large following as having a certain sort of responsibility to speak out at times… especially as the situation with Russia and Ukraine must be so close to her heart.
I can definitely see both sides of it, however I don’t think anyone should be pressured to comment or share their opinion on anything. It must be very stressful to be in her position right now, she disappeared for a few weeks at the start of the invasion and I’m sure the pressure to comment was one of the reasons.
