Description
In today's Sleep Song, composer Eduardo Rivera follows the path of least intrusion, creating a synth sanctuary for weary bodies and minds.

Attune your ear to the higher melodies, and you may notice a more glassy sound this kind of coalescence creates. Or … just float on the rolling current of tranquil vibes. Original music from composer Eduardo Rivera. 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.
