About this session
- Settles the mind
- Deepens inner peace
- Eases tension
- Supports focus
Riverside is a ten-minute nature soundscape with no voice and no instructions. Created by Mate Valtr, it places you on a bank beside moving water, so the steady current becomes something for your attention to rest on. There is nothing to follow or do, only the sound.
It suits anyone who wants a calm backdrop rather than a guided session. Play it while you work, during a pause between tasks, when you come home and want the day to loosen its grip, or whenever you simply want quiet company.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
What will I actually hear in Riverside?
You will hear a riverside atmosphere: the sound of moving water with no voice and no spoken guidance. It is made to sit in the background or to be listened to closely, whichever suits you.
How is this different from a guided meditation?
There is no teacher telling you where to place your attention or what to imagine. The flowing water is the only anchor, so you can use it your own way, whether that is sitting still or getting on with a task.
Can I use it while I work?
Yes. A steady, wordless sound like flowing water can sit underneath focused work without pulling your attention to a voice. Many people use a track like this to ease into a state of flow at a desk.
What should I do while it plays?
Nothing is required. You can close your eyes and follow the sound of the current, or let it play while you do something else. If your thoughts wander, let them move along like the water does.
