ASMR/Relaxation History/Culture - Mazes (History and Symbolism)

This soft spoken history/culture ASMR podcast/video is about Mazes through the ages! The video begins with a brief history of early mazes (1.32); gives details of some historic mazes you can still visit today (9.04); discusses the symbolism of mazes (13.42), looks at their popularity in books and films (17.18) and finally finishes up with 12 minutes of DEEP RELAXATION (beginning at 18.53)... as my voices takes you on a guided journey through a tranquil fantasy maze... with a beautiful secret at its centre.

Found you from the French Whisperer. Love the channel.
Thanks!

[@SoundsCurious]

You're welcome! Thanks for stopping by 🙂

[@bethhoffman662]

I also heard about you from the French Whisperer on his introduction to several asmr artists. I really, really enjoy your channel! So relaxing and the interesting history stories to make it so pleasant (of course, along with your lovely voice) to relax to no matter what time of day!! Look forward to visiting you soon

@@bethhoffman662 I came here from that video too. Sounds Curious was the last sample in that episode. If I hadn't heard it, I would have missed out on this wonderfully unique artist who tells a kind of history nobody else on TH-cam does. Now that she's no longer making videos, I keep coming back to listen to the old ones. I hope she starts making videos again someday.

Loved your immersive story at the end!

[@SoundsCurious]

Thank you! I love both mazes and libraries so much, it seemed like a delightful plan to combine them 😀

[@clemfandango115]

I just found your channel. What a hidden gem! So calming and educational!

[@SoundsCurious]

Thank you - glad you're enjoying it!

[@poetryjones7946]

Back again visiting my favorite Sounds Curious ASMR. You are much missed. 🙏🏼🌹

[@SoundsCurious]

Ah, thank you ❤️ I'm sorry I haven't been able to make any new content recently - I've had a lot of really interesting creative work on, which is great, but hasn't left me any time for ASMR! However, I haven't given it up intentionally... you'll know when the work dries up, because then I'll be back!

[@poetryjones7946]

@@SoundsCurious Yay! That’s great to hear! My whole family adores your content! 🌸

Fantastic! You’re up there with The French Whisperer ASMR.

[@SoundsCurious]

Thank you! That's high praise indeed 🙂

[@poetryjones7946]

💚This is one of my favorites, such a beautiful, fascinating, relaxing ASMR! Any possibility you might one day do a History of Ornamental Hermits? Thank you so much for these wonderful videos ~ 🌹🙏🏼🌹

[@SoundsCurious]

Ooh, that would be a suitably curious topic! Sadly, I know very little about ornamental hermits (other than what is written about them on Wikipedia!), but I'll certainly bear it in mind for the future. Meanwhile, you might enjoy my talk on Follies - not about the hermits, per se, but no doubt a few of the follies I mention were designed with hermits in mind! Thank you for your support 🙂 th-cam.com/video/aywCo_y18Hk/w-d-xo.html

[@poetryjones7946]

Thank you! Oooh yes, follies! How did I miss that one??? The whole Capability Brown Natural Landscaping era (with its ornamental hermits😂) absolutely fascinated me! Your ASMR videos (and this one especially!) are such an oasis in this strange sea of Covidlife. Thank you again. 💚
