Is It Normal to Enjoy Auto-Sensory Meridian Response?

A writer for the Huffington Post commented that it is easy to explain one's state of pleasure to someone unexpectedly walking in when one is watching porn than when one is watching a kitty video. But there's no doubt that the experience of auto-sensory Meridian response is normal. Actually, its the site members of Steady Health who established this for the world.

Steady Health Forum Members First to Identify Auto-Sensory Meridian Response

Steady Health members initially described the experience as a "head orgasm," but that was a little too sexual actually to describe the experience (the sensation of niceness usually starts in the head, as in the area of the body above the shoulders in both sexes) and only coincidentally has anything to do with sex. A Steady Health forum member named Tingler explained the situation perfectly when he noted, "“I got it once really good when I was getting knobbed but I think it was the attention that mattered not the sexual stuff.”

Auto-Sensory Meridican Response Similar to Falling in Love, Only without a Lover

And that is the key. The oohing, ahing, and tingling we get from auto-sensory Meridian response come about from the sense of another person being there just for us or an event happening just for us. Auto-sensory Meridian response is almost just being polite. Someone in our world pays attention to us, just to us, so we pay attention to them, just to them, and it feels very, very good.

The experience is a lot like falling in love, only without all the baggage. The kitty in the kitty video, for instance, never forces us to fill its bowl or change its litter box. It's just there for us to love. The beautiful woman teaching us how to fold towels doesn't expect a nice dinner or a movie, and we don't even actually have to fold any towels. But how does the phenomenon really work?

Real Effects on the Human Body

Scientists don't know why one experience triggers auto-sensory Meridian response in one person and a different experience triggers auto-sensory Meridian response in another, but studies of a therapeutic method known as tapping hint that the auto-sensory Meridian response has real effects on the human body.

In tapping, which could be considered a really boring kind of auto-sensory Meridian response, pain is relieved, but "stress" hormones, the hormones that are activated during sex and other pleasurable experiences, are unaffected. It's as if the experience of tapping turns off pain without turning off "good stress," keeping us energized while bad feelings go away.

Maybe something similar happens when we watch reruns of painting shows or we rewatch kitty videos. Science doesn't really know. But Steady Health forum members know that auto-sensory Meridian response is real and it puts a smile on lots of faces.
