Bespoke Guided Meditation

A meditation made
for you alone

Individually scripted, recorded, and delivered — shaped around the particular territory of your life right now.

£75 – £100 · 15–20 minutes

What this is

Not a recording.
A conversation made still.

Most guided meditations are written for everyone, which means they fit no one quite exactly. This is different.

Before I write a word, I listen. We take a little time — by phone, message, or a short written exchange — for you to tell me what you are carrying. Where you are. What you need permission to put down.

What I create from that conversation is a meditation that knows your name. Not literally, but in every other sense. It speaks to your particular grief, your particular threshold, your particular need for rest.

What's included

Everything needed.
Nothing extraneous.

A short intake conversation

15 minutes by phone or a brief written exchange, so the meditation is genuinely yours rather than simply personalised.
A bespoke script

Written by hand for your circumstances, drawing on 30 years of pastoral accompaniment and contemplative practice.
A recorded audio file

A clean MP3, 15–20 minutes, delivered within five working days. Yours to keep and return to whenever you need it.
A written transcript

Some people find it useful to read as well as listen. The full text accompanies every recording.

How it works

Simple.
Unhurried.

You get in touch

Tell me a little about where you are — a few lines is enough. No need to explain yourself fully. I will ask what I need.

We have a brief conversation

15 minutes, at a pace that suits you. Phone, voice note, or written — whatever feels least effortful right now.

I write and record

I take time with this. Your meditation is delivered within five working days.

It arrives in your inbox

The audio file and transcript, ready when you are. No account to create, no app to download. Just a file that belongs to you.

This might be for you if

You are somewhere
that needs naming.

You are in grief, and generic comfort feels hollow
You are at a threshold — a retirement, a diagnosis, a relationship ending
You have moved beyond religious language but still need somewhere quiet to go
You want something to return to, not just a one-off moment
Someone you love is approaching death and you need steadying
You cannot articulate what you need, but you know you need it

For a longer journey

Three meditations.
A through-line.

Some territory takes more than one visit. If you are moving through something over weeks or months, a set of three meditations — each one building on the last — can accompany you more fully than a single recording.

Optional series

A set of three bespoke meditations

Three recordings, individually scripted, spaced to suit your pace. Each one responsive to where you are in your process, not just where you were when we began.

£210 — a saving of £15–90 against individual price

About David

Thirty years
at the threshold.

I was ordained as an Anglican priest in 1995 and spent 21 years in pastoral ministry before leaving institutional religion. I work now as a funeral and wedding celebrant, spiritual director, and author — accompanying people through the territories that lie on either side of the major transitions of life.

I trained in Oxford in applied theology, and supervise graduate Spiritual Directors at the Center for Non-Religious Spirituality. I am based near Salisbury, in Wiltshire.

I write and record from the conviction that contemplative practice belongs to everyone, not only to those who hold a particular faith.
