App Uses Bob Ross To Help You Fall Asleep

Insomnia can be one of the hardest things in the world to deal with, unless you have Bob Ross painting happy little dreams in your head.

An app called Calm focuses on helping people live a healthier life in all aspects. From eating, to meditation and everything in between. One of their newest features is an audio sleep aid app using the voice of Bob Ross.

I have friends that deal with sleep issues, and it can be crippling. Some times it just helps to find something to help you get out of your own way, and just relax. If the soothing voice of Bob Ross doesn't do that for you, then you might be a robot. Check out one of the sample tracks you can find on the app below.

The idea of using Bob Ross as a relaxation tool is definitely not new. He has become a YouTube sensation through the ASMR community. ASMR is Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. I won't get into the science of it, but Ross soothing voice is said to trigger signals in the brain for some people. You can read more about it here.

You can download the app here, but just be warned that it's going to cost you to have the sound of happy trees putting you to sleep.
