25 Best Guided Meditations - Playlist & Links

We've now got a playlist on Spotify with our 25 best guided meditations of the last 2 1/2 years 🙂

All collected neatly together, with updated descriptions, covering all the most important subjects, and in decent audio quality.

Most of the meditations are based on either Breath Meditation (Ānāpāṇasati = Mindfulness of the In and Outbreath), or Loving Kindness ('Mettā'). I've put the Mettā meditations on top, as Loving Kindness may be easier accessible for most newcomers. However, the breath meditations are more comprehensive, as ānāpāṇasati can be used to develop both samatha (calmness/concentration) and vipassanā (insight/wisdom) practice.

There's also two titles on Recollection of the Buddha (buddhānussati), two on Compassion, one on Mindfulness of the Body (bodysweeping), and other subjects like impermanence (anicca), not-self (anattā), letting go, gratitude, developing joy and happiness...

Additionally, there are two recent tracks, specially meant to provide an introduction:

You can click on any of the meditations embedded above, and it will take you directly to the track in the Spotify App.

Or just type "Buddhist Guided Meditations Dhammagiri" in the search function in Spotify App.

It's still possible to listen in any browser here:

When I tried, listening on browser on mobile devices worked fine (as long as 'DRM' is enabled).

However, on desktop I can only see the playlist. But one has to log into Spotify account to actually play the titles.

Fortunately, there's also a Spotify App for desktop. If one installs that, the playlist works fine on it.

All the meditations included in the play list can be found on other podcasting apps as well: Apple Podcasts/iTunes; Castbox; Google and so on...

However, they do not offer any way to make a public playlist. But you could type the title of any of the meditations into their search function, and the track should come up there.

We can't provide individual links to all 25 tracks.

But here are at least direct Spotify, Apple & Castbox links to the 2 new intros,
