  • Diamonds, rubies, sapphires, emeralds and more: this soft spoken male ASMR video is an exploration of the world of precious and semi-precious stones. I tell you about what they are made of, where they come from, how they are cut, and stories about famous gems like the Koh-i-Noor or the Star of India.

      @@heidimariem8851 my wife is very into healing crystals, meditation and holistics. I genuinely have given it a shot and it didn’t do anything for me. I won’t say that I’m totally in disbelief but I can say a lot of it has to do with placebo in my opinion. Your mind has a weird way of making things so with external stimulants. If you want to it to be your mind can almost always make it so. So in that aspect absolutely, they are very effective, for someone like myself who is skeptical not so much.

Si seulement le public adhérait mais bon, ça ne vaut sûrement pas une vidéo sur la dernière coupe à la mode des ongles de pieds. J'espère que les demandes en Français se feront de plus en plus fréquentes ce qui voudra dire qu'il y aura un intérêt croissant du public francophone 😊. En tout cas, merci pour tout même si pour moi, c'est du chinois.
