Lauren's videos create brain tingles in her viewers but she is adamant it is not sexual.

The term is believed to have been coined by American Jennifer Allen, who started a Facebook group on the topic in 2010Lauren describes the tingles generated by the videos as"the shiveries", a frisson that travels from the top of the head down the spine and can be caused by numerous different triggers.

They whisper, tap their fingers, make"mouth sounds" or act out role-play scenarios such as a doctor's appointment or a visit to the hairdresser's, all with the aim of engendering the"shiveries". She uses hi-tech binaural microphones to create a 3D audio experience that makes the listener feel they are in the middle of the scene."I'm one of those people who cannot study in silence," she says."At first I found it a bit weird, the whispering felt a bit odd, but I kept listening and I found I was getting tingles and I was feeling relaxed."Her Scottish accent was instantly popular.
