My dear friends I hope that this ASMR Stoic meditation on virtue (being a good person / having a good personality) helps you out~! I have always enjoy guided meditations that go a little bit deeper into philosophy, or more practical real-world elements of thought.
I find that the illustrative metaphors used in meditation, as well as the practical anchoring techniques such as breathing and body scan exercises really help to clear the mind to allow for the contemplation of topics you might not otherwise be clear enough to consider.
The human mind is strange, it is full of logical biases, fallacies, group think, tribal thought, anxiety, fear, irrationality, along with a host of other poisonous or maladaptive tendencies. Leftovers from our ancient evolutionary history which may still help us in specific situations, but which dampen our ability to think creatively and openly.

❓ What IS ASMR? Why are you being WEIRD? ❓
ASMR is a tingly relaxing phenomena that occurs when some people hear, see or feel different things! Videos tagged with 'ASMR' are created with the express purpose to try to trigger these relaxing feelings. Personal attention, whispering, clicking and various sounds & visuals commonly trigger this sensation. People watch ASMR for relaxation, escapism, entertainment, to pass the time, to sleep or to avoid being lonely. You don't need to feel weird about watching ASMR!
If you do not experience ASMR, you are definitely still welcome to watch! If you don't understand the feeling - the closest I can explain is the feeling of getting a relaxing massage from a professional massage therapist.

Below are some excerpts I have paraphrased from Wikipedia for further detail:
Autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR), sometimes auto sensory meridian response, is a tingling sensation that typically begins on the scalp and moves down the back of the neck and upper spine. A pleasant form of paresthesia, it has been compared with auditory-tactile synesthesia and may overlap with frisson.

ASMR signifies the subjective experience of "low-grade euphoria" characterized by "a combination of positive feelings and a distinct static-like tingling sensation on the skin". It is most commonly triggered by specific auditory or visual stimuli, and less commonly by intentional attention control. A genre of videos which intend to stimulate ASMR has emerged, of which over 13 million are published on YouTube
(Wikipedia, 2020).
