      Hi everybody!

      Maybe it's me…possibly I'm a little strange!? But does anyone else find whispering hypnotic? When I hear whispering I feel this calming effect on my brain. I feel that all my sleep problems could be solved if I could find a CD of whispering/music combination. I have scoured the web and even popped into my local spiritual retailer but to no avail. It would be interesting to hear if anyone else has encountered this phenomenon and has indeed managed to locate any form of whispering CD?

        That's really interesting. I think whispering is naturally soothing, too. I wonder if there's any scientific reason for this?

          Hi Martin. Possibly. I will try and do some research and will post the evidence if I find any. If, in the meantime, you are able to track any such music, please let me know. Thanks.

            Having done some research on this topic, the nearest explanation I can find for this phenomenon seems to be a condition called Autonomous Sensory Meridien Response or “Brain Orgasms”! These can be triggered by external noises or actions, ie. someone writing, monotone auditory sounds or indeed whispering. People report a tingling sensation in the head and feeling sleepy. there are websites on YouTube that play whispered video material for sleep and meditative/relaxation purposes. Could this possibly help some people with their sleep problems? Unfortunately I have been unable to locate any actual recorded CD's containing whispering and to use YouTube would mean having a laptop or computer close to your bedside.

              I read about this phenomenon recently – it tends to affect me when I see people working on something that requires a lot of concentration; for example, watching people paint, draw or make something.

              I guess if you were to create a CD of whispering with the aim of helping people sleep, you need to be careful about what the people whisper about – you don't want it to be something you end up listening intently to!

                This is quite interesting, it does explain the soothing effect of a softly spoken voice.
