Sleep Song

The quiet heart


Listen Later

Music adapted from Joel McHale’s Meditative Story, "One beating heart."

As our Sleep Song begins, a lilting melody on guitar plays against a chorus of delicately ringing celesta and chimes. The sound of a singing bowl cues in a mood of reflection, introducing a passage of swirling synth lines. The mood of the music smoothly alternates between bright and quiet, as between scenes of action and scenes of reflection, each in turn, before we move into a contemplative space of piano and glowing synths, where notes and chimes drift in and out as the mind grows quiet.

Original music from composer Ryan Holladay.

Meditative Story combines extraordinary human stories with meditation prompts embedded into the storylines — all surrounded by breathtaking music. Think of it as an alternative way into a mindfulness practice, through vivid stories and cinematic music and production values. Find Meditative Story wherever you listen to podcasts.
