Machining or lathe work videos. For some reason, it's very satisfying for some reason.

A Playlist made up of a bunch of 90's primetime cartoons
KnowledgeFight, usually. Sometimes an audio book.
The hum of my oscilating tower fan.

David Gilmour - Live in Pompeii
When not in the mood for talking, singing bowls for sure.
When my brain can't stop and I need a distraction, either the sleep with me podcast or welcome to nightvale. Sometimes Sleep Whispers but that one can be over stimulating for my lil ASMR brain.
Painting videos are the best.
The box fan.
Good sleep hygene ie dark quiet cold is incredibly good for you. It makes you 5-10% better at literally everything. Falling asleep to content is incredibly bad for this its literally making ur dumber and more distracted.
Formula 1 and tennis matches. Not because they are boring but they are relaxing.
PBS Spacetime or Space Matters at 0.75 speed.
Alan Watts, Eckart Tolle, Great Meditations (the sleep ones as there is no wakeup bit at the end)
Omnibus.
Police interrogation videos
BBW porn (and beating my meat) or porn with cute gay men (and beating my meat)
As I transition to being an old man I'm increasingly falling asleep on the couch while my wife and I watch through the Alone show again. It's quite relaxing.
Last night I fell asleep listening to PBS WashingtonWeek but that's the first time I've fallen asleep with an earbud in in a long time. Usually I just have a fan on.
