Wellness and relaxation podcasts require a special blend of music and sounds to create truly soothing zen ambience for the listener.
You may choose to play background music throughout the entire podcast episode or simply use a soothing intro sounds along with a couple calming sound effects to mark the transitions in your content.

What are wellness podcasts?
Wellness podcasts focus on providing information, insights, and guidance related to various aspects of well-being and overall health.
These may include mindfulness and meditation podcasts, sleep therapy, self-care, holistic health and healing, spiritual, and relaxation podcasts.
A collection of guided meditations would be a good example of a wellness podcast.
What sounds and music will help to support a wellness podcast?
Depending on the specific of your wellness podcast (are you talking about meditation or healthy eating), a wide variety of music can work.
Generally speaking, the choice of music should complement the podcast’s content and support overall message of relaxation, mindfulness, and well-being.
Your go-for options include ambient and relaxing music, nature sounds, chillout and downtempo music tracks, and even healing frequencies, like solfeggio frequencies or binaural beats.
If you’re not sure what music to pick for your podcast, I would recommend some of the following types of sounds:
1. Intro Music
For a tranquil and soothing vibe, consider a short instrumental music track (10 – 15 sec long) featuring piano, acoustic guitar, or soft strings.
For a more contemporary and relaxed feel, look for chillout or downtempo music intro with a slow beat and ambient feel.
Listen to some relaxing music intros.
2. Relaxing Background Music
It’s essential to maintain the right balance between the music and the spoken content in your wellness podcast.
IMPORTANT: The background music should only complement your content without overwhelming or distracting from your message.
Listen to examples of relaxing music.
3. Soothing Sound Effects
If your podcast is focused on relaxation, use nature sounds, like bird songs, ocean waves, waterfalls, and gentle river sounds or relaxing sound effects like singing bowls, meditation bells or wind chimes.
Listen to relaxing zen sound effects.
