About voiceover narration for guided meditation & wellbeing
I have a wealth of experience being at the listening end of guided meditations and the genre in general. I also regularly visit a meditation centre near where I live.
I find that it's a fine balance between providing a calm read that allows the listener to find what they need, as well as being more prescriptive, which is certainly useful for guiding your listener, but also imposes your delivery on their frame of mind - potentially causing a patronising and off-putting atmosphere. I have worked on my personally preferred dynamic of delivery to keenly address this balance.
The voice artist must also bear in mind who is the the audience the recording is designed for; a sleepy story for 12-15 year olds is different, say, to a 10 minute working-day refresher for those coping with stress at work.
Children, adults, men, women or everyone are all catered for with my meditative voiceover.
I have voiced meditation & mindfulness projects for:
• Corporate employees, to aid their transition from home to work
• A new Mindfulness & Breathing app comprising 52 new visualisation guided meditations
• Stories for adults and children to ease them into a mind for sleep
• Quick YouTube meditation exercises
• Focused exercises for working people dealing with life changes
Please do get in touch to discuss your project.
You'll get courteous service and quick, quality audio.
You're very welcome to use these meditations

Meditation Voiceover
I have been lucky enough to record a lot of meditation voiceover.
As a regular user of guided meditations I know what works for me and what doesn't; what eases me in to the right state of mind, and what jars me out of it.
I have recorded single, simple, breathing meditations. I have also recorded a long series of meditations which, over the course, gradually involved very advanced visualisation... in this situation, every word, breath and pause must assist the listener to access the "image" and never cause them to question or 'drop out' of the meditation.
Guided meditation and wellbeing recordings need a light, deft hand and so can take a little longer to produce than E-Learning or Advertising.
That doesn't mean, however, it will take forever!
This genre, more perhaps than any other, needs a conversation or two to assure a clearly agreed objective. In other words...
let's talk!
It's always best to equip me with as many notes on direction and tone of voice as you have in mind ... it's your project after all, don't hold back!
It's also incredibly useful to have any music or backing track you are using or considering
(although I realise this isn't always possible).
Rates
This work is charged at Basic Session Fee rates, with additional time for editing/processing/syncing if required.
If you are producing a series (eg. several different guided meditations) then there is often a way to keep costs down by recording two or three in a session.
If there are lots, please let me know your budget and ask for an estimate.
This work may be subject to Usage Fees - depending on your medium, internal or public use, period of use, use for profit and estimated audience size.
"We were delighted to work with David on a series of menopause mindfulness meditations.
David has a versatile voice and was able to quickly interpret the brief.
David is easy to work with, personable and a real team player. We thoroughly recommend him!!"
