After an assault, I didn’t want physical touch or anything. However, every once in a while I crave a hug though or just feeling some sort of loneliness when my man leaves after spending time together. This never fails to warm my heart. The simple act of asking for permission makes me feel unbelievably safe. Thank you for this. I am beyond grateful for what you do for us viewers.

As someone with a trauma history, you asking for permission before you come closer, hug, etc is SO IMPORTANT. Please know how much it is appreciated!!!

Tom is too pure for this world.

The simple act of asking for permission. So simple yet so difficult to understand and respect. After these past few weeks of such troubling news of a young woman being killed haunts me to think of every women out there that fear walking alone at night, who cross the street when they see a group of men. Thank you, Tom. You are a true gentleman and we are all blessed to have you and your amazing content to relax us 💜 stay safe and take care xx

“You can close your eyes and relax” I’d rather see you sir 👁👄👁

Him : would u mind... Me:I DONT MIND AT ALL

I’m sure you get this comment all the time but I honestly don’t understand how you don’t have more subscribers. You’re such a comforting presence to have around and your ASMR is phenomenal.

The ear-to-ear breathy whispers were amazing

ASMR is really a strange phenomena. Tom's crinkly shirt was so pleasing to listen to here however irl if someone wore a crinkly shirt around me it'll irritate me ngl.

I've been crying all day, I saw the title and my eyes started watering. I'm crying and we haven't even got past the intro. Thank you, Tom. For this beautiful video. I really needed it today.

I always relax a little bit more when he says “I got you” at appr 4:22. Thank you ❤️

This was a BEYOND experience. Never felt so relaxed and tingled with any other ASMR video.

Hi Tom! I want to thank you for your videos. Your voice is so calming, so soothing, and your whole attitude is beautiful. I felt so safe in your arms when you hugged me. :) You really are a protective, caring, and dedicated gentleman. I watch your videos every night before sleep. :) Thank you for taking care of me, and for making me feel so peaceful and safe.

I have been struggling a lot with my mental health and this has helped so much thank you

So, I had to have one of my cats put to sleep very unexpectedly yesterday and it's been a pretty rough weekend. Thank you for giving me something else to focus on for a bit. I wouldn't typically share something like this but I'm feeling much more peaceful after watching, thanks Tom.

I’m totally blind and your voice is very relaxing. Helps me sleep.

I struggle with severe chronic depression and agoraphobia, and I play this numerous times throughout the day and night to stay centered and relaxed. It's a great help. Thank you, Tom!

Thank you once again Tom, for your unmatched awesome hugs, warmth, positivity and white light. I am sorry for your stress and anxiety - sending some wrap-around warm cheek hugs in return

Tom I legitimately thought I had lost the ability to feel the “tingles” but after playing this video once I got them back for the first time in almost two years! I honestly forgot how it felt! Awesome video Tom!

The hugs felt so heart-warming. Especially since I haven't had a real one in a while. 🥺💜💙 Thanks, Tom.

I haven't hugged anyone for months. I would probably break you☺️

The plucking trigger at 13:30 is super nice!

A year later and this is still my go-to ASMR video. I listen to it every single night before bed.

Congrats on 80k Tom!! Favorite ASMR artist since day one 😊💛

❤took 2 years to show up , but finally you are here . Great video ...very soothing ❤. Thank you

I'm melting... Your face tracing brings me to tears every time. 🥺🥺 So happy to see you Tom, hope you're doing well. ❤️

This is exactly what I needed today. I don’t have someone in my life to give me comfort like this. You made me feel so much better when I needed it the most. Thank you Tom, truly.

This was so intimate, it was totally enveloping, and I loved it when you said not to feel selfish, it was mesmerizing ang gorgeously blissful and real xxxx

Hugging videos are unrivaled . Perfect job Tom! When I take my headphones and listen, I feel like there's a close friend in the room with me, lying next to me and breathing down my neck 😁 It's very strange, maybe a little weird, 😊 but I admit, I love it! 😌

Tom, you sir are the real MVP of ASMR. Your ASMR is soul deep and healing in so many ways. So grateful 🥺🙏

Tom: 20, 19, 18, 17... Me: SLOW DOWN PLEASE I DON’T WANT THIS TO END :(

What a sweet, gentle, and genuine way you have. As always, thanks so much angel! Wish you knew how much we truly appreciate and care for you! Stay safe and be well.💜✨

Thank you so much for making this video. I found it to be not just relaxing, but incredibly soothing. I am a twice divorced single mom who is having a hell of a time right now. Sometimes it seems like the stress will never go away. This video brought me a lot of comfort. Thank you for that. I think that you are an incredible ASMR-tist! You have a very comforting and soothing voice which adds so much to all of your videos. As strange as it may sound, the fact that you are so polite and that you ask the viewer permission for you to come closer to the camera really means a lot too. For those of us who feel like nobody really respects or cares about what we say, to have someone do that means a lot. I am very happy to have found your channel and happier still to have subscribed. I’m looking forward to more content. Take care Tom. Blessed be. ✨✨✨

Who gave the dislike?! We need to talk 😠

Tom, your compassion always tears my eyes up. Thank you for all you do!

I sooo needed this as college midterms are killing me rn ❤️❤️

You always come through with these videos at the best time. After the week I've had, I seriously can't wait to get in bed and watch this ❤️

Oh I loved this. Your energy was so warm and I felt so incredibly safe. Thank you for this video, Tom

Okay seriously....you’ve done it again. You’ve simply just done it again. ❤️ You’re sometimes so close to my ears that I arched my back 😊 and I fell asleep with a smile. Thank you a million times over ❤️

I dont usually comment...but this video was better than I thought it would be, the thumbnail was adorable, and I loved how open and personal this video was❤ you sir, have a beautiful soul💕

this was an absolute goldmine. I really needed this. I've had such a bad day and i just needed something to quiet my head a little. thank you so much.

i couldn’t sit still with all the tingles it got

i dont really know what to say but i wanna help you with the algorithm because your videos are amazing and your craftsmanship and genuine care helped me a lot with anxiety and all that jazz. Thanks !

This... This is why I first fell in love with your work. Your whispers are perfect and the hugs mean the world. Xx

I really needed a video like this after such a rough day. Thank you so much for all your amazing videos! Keep up the good work Tom!

u dont know how much this kinds of video make me feel good about everything. It gives me comfort, it makes me feel close, warm, relaxed. I dont know if you know how much u change peoples lives, but i hope u do, love u ❤

Lost Asmr tingles about a year ago, but this video worked.

Always love hugs from tom! 🤗🤗💙💙 and love the face touching and plucking. Thanks for great visuals.

It's absolutely relaxing, Tom, and giving me peace in my heart.

I literally fell asleep, sitting upright, at my desk with my hands on the keyboard. This is an amazing video! Thank you for it! 🤗

The shirt crinkles are absolutely perfect Tom ❤️ I think it’s one of my new favorite triggers, it’s such a good sound.

Hi, Tom. It's wonderful to see you. Thank you for the hugs and relaxation. Have a great week ahead.💜

Awesome video! Just perfect I needed a hug and found Tom. Thanks! made me feel safe and sleepy. Love the crinkle shirt.

This video has been helping me sleep so much lately.. bless your soul 🥺💓

Your hug videos are always the best and help me relax so much

the gentleness in your voice is so soothing *closes eyes*

This. Is. MAGNIFICENT!!!!! :D So incredibly peaceful and soothing 😌!!! :D For all the effort, time and care you put into your content... thank you with all of my heart, spectacular Mr. Tom!!!!! :D

You have no idea how much i needed this. Thank you. Much love,Heather lynn. See I've been feeling so alone and crying so much that i couldn't stop. Then i played this video and now I'm relaxed and i feel like i can go to sleep and i have insomnia so sleep is hard most of the time unless my depression gets bad then all i do is sleep. So again ty for all that you do.

You know, when you did that survey part of me wanted to say the uber driver rp but to be perfectly honest, videos like these are the ones that I watch the most. I like the more creative videos too and I will watch them. The sea shanty one was great lol! But the simple videos of someone just being calm and whispering and giving personal attention really help me a lot. It doesn't even matter what the person is saying because I fall asleep halfway through usually lol. But for me that is what really helps me the most. I put videos like this on a playlist and I'll end up watching them repeatedly cause they get the job done!

So many tingles!! You do this the best, thank you so much for making these. 🥰 Unrelated, but this video reminded me that my first time experiencing asmr was in grade 1 when a boy in my class quietly moved lego pieces next to me

whispering is the only trigger that makes me tingle! this video was amazing tom😍

The hugs are back!! I love them 🥰

Perfect timing. I’m snowed in all alone and this is the perfect thing for personal attention

Absolutely wonderful, as always! Thank you for these!

This was exactly what I've been needing. Thank you for a great video.

I'm taking midterms this week and I've been pulling all nighters to the point that I felt like breaking down. The video was unbelievably so relaxing and helping. I had tears pooling in my eyes because I didn't realise how much I needed a hug until you made me. Not to mention the fact that you have the most gentle aura, the most gorgeous eyes I have ever seen. 👊😭😭😭😭😭💓

Thanks Tom! This was amazing and couldn't have come at a better time. This was so calming and relaxing. Also, the whispers and breaths in the right ear gave me mad tingles. I appreciate the personal attention. Thanks again Tom from Tom. Yes, my name is Tom too. Well is part of my name but everyone calls me Tom for short. How cool is that? Two Tom's together. One helping the other relax.

Letting go of everything and the tingles begin. Thanks for all you do in this space, Tom! 🤗🎙💚

I love your videos but it's frustrating that I'm not able to finished them, I fall asleep hugging a pillow before that happens 😸 Thank you for making me sleep comfortably

One of your best videos yet!

One of my favorite channels !

Thank you for being the best hubby in the entire ASMR community ♥️

Yeees! Perfect for headache relief❤️

Finally new video i need it now.. thank you for always make me calm.

Collecting a hug three years later…thank you.

Thank you so much 😭😭😭 i felt so lonely lately and for once in a long time i feel safe and loved 😭😭😭 Thank you Tom for the amazing work you do, you always kill that kind of video 😭

Tough weekend and now a gloomy cbus day. This is helpful! TY.

I am not a hugger, It makes me so uncomfortable and tense, this has always been an issue for me. I hate that. But I really tried to focus and “feel” these hugs. I hope to one day be more relaxed in a real life situation, this is a good practice exercise. I found myself smiling like an idiot when you said you felt better too. Thanks for that.

Loved this! It took away all my stress from the crazy day. Thank you! ✌🏻👍🏻✌🏻

Ugh.. he’s so good

Good to see you Tom. You are so relaxing. Thanks! 🤍

Thank you, really needed that 🤗 Superb quality as always 🥰

Hi luv your content 😊the quality of your voice is so soothing❤️

sooooo peaceful and relaxing .... ! ❤⚘

YAYYYYY!! Such a treat! Thank you!

Awwww💜💜💜 sending all virtual hugs ❤❤❤

Love how when I saw your story on Instagram your notification popped up lol

My angel is back 😌

Tom can you make more vids with the same techniques as this one when you get a chance? I’ve been watching this like 2-3x a week since it came out lol it’s a masterpiece

This was relaxing

This is INCREDIBLE 👏🏻. Thank you so much, Tom!

what a man, what a legend 👑

Perfect voice to listen while relaxing 👏✅

2:46 into this & I find myself wishing I knew the human-ness of who you are. I don't sleep well. I despise having my face touched due to past trauma... My EX husband broke into my home & assaulted me... This was 100% helpful for me to relax into. I'm looking forward to watching it's remainder & getting additional sleep. I'm so grateful for your time!

Very relaxing. Thank you.

The 'good evening' excite me as always.

The whisper part...✨

Love this video wish you’d make more like this thank you for sharing yourself ❤️💋✌🏼

Amazing and relaxing, that's so great. Thanks, Tom. Saludos desde México

Hi Tom! Great video!
