Moonlight Library (ASMR)

If there is a heaven for book lovers, perhaps it looks something like the moonlight library. A venerable, old library with a world class collection and surprisingly lenient borrowing terms and unique opening hours. You see, the moonlight library, as the name perhaps suggests, it's only open at night from dusk until dawn. Anyone is welcome to browse the shelves, to borrow books or just to absorb the atmosphere. There are plenty of good books here and nearly as many perfect places to curl up with one. Taking a tour like this is perfectly permissible, it's encouraged, in fact. All that is asked of us is that we keep our voices down out of respect for the other readers who are here to enjoy this lovely space. Before we begin, I think it's nice to start with a little wind down. Tonight's exercise is a really simple breathing exercise. So when you're ready, let's begin. So first, get comfortable in your bed. Now just bringing the attention to the breath. Just noticing where you feel it in the nose, the throat, the chest, the diaphragm. You're nice and relaxed. We're going to be taking a deep breath in for four, holding it for four and then, breathing out for six. So are you ready? Let's begin. In for four, two, three, four.

Out for six, two, three, four, five, six. In for four, two, three, four. Holding for four, two, three, four. Out for six, two, three, four, five, six. In for four, two, three, four. Holding for four, two, three, four. Out for six, two, three, four, five, six. Great. Now returning the breath to normal. In this a huge library there's space for everyone to be comfortable, reading nooks provide cozy spots to curl up with a book. Here is a plush armchair, between a row of encyclopedias. The armchair is made from violet felt, with a foot stool to match. If you look closely you can see little silver stars in the dark fabric of the furniture. As though pieces of the cool night sky had been fashioned into a place for you to rest. The armchair has a high back, slightly tilted, so you can really relax. A little table next to the armchair is the perfect place for a cup of tea, or maybe another three books for you to page through. In the middle of the chamber you stumble onto another reading nook. On a round pastel blue rug you see piles of plush pillows, made from the comfiest cotton. These pillows are yellow, and orange, and rosy pink. Lounging on the fluffy blue carpet, these warm colors around you, it's as though you're resting in the middle of a sunset. What lovely reading nooks for visitors to the Moonlight Library.
