Copyright, Permissions, and Accreditations

Before you upload anything onto the app, be sure you have all the necessary rights. We take issues with copyright very seriously so remember to credit all musicians for background music and other teachers who may have influenced your work. If you are uploading on someone else’s behalf or using a trademarked term/practice, written permission may be requested.

Any material that is found to breach copyright will be removed immediately. Royalty-free music tracks will not be allowed on the app unless used as background music for a guided meditation and/or as a sample for an original musical piece. Works already in the public domain may be accepted (e.g. readings, lectures, stories), provided original creators are properly credited. Furthermore, proper credentials are required if you use a specialized practice like Neuroscience, Psychology, MBSR, ACT, the Wim Hof Method, and the like.

Disclaimers and Warnings

If your audio tackles sensitive and triggering topics like depression, eating disorders, and the like, we require that you place a “trigger warning” note at the beginning of the recording as well as the track description. It must also be emphasized that it is not a substitute for professional help and that there are no scientific claims. Furthermore, reminders to exercise necessary caution and steps to ensure safety and health, like avoiding driving or operating heavy machinery, should also be included in the recording and the description when necessary.

• Promotions Guided meditations must not have any promotional content. This includes the mention of products, services, websites, books, courses, retreats, and other platforms, as well as contact details.
• Overtly Sexual Sexuality plays a huge role in achieving overall well-being. However, until we put appropriate filters for tracks that are sexual in nature, contain sexual references, have sexual undertones, and/or are sexually suggestive, we shall refrain from accepting such.
• Hyper-Political, Hate Speech, and Explicit Language Content that promotes, bashes, and discredits specific organizations or movements will not be accepted. Topics like this may be divisive and polarizing to a general audience. We also do not tolerate hate speech or discrimination of any kind.
  Tracks with explicit language may be accepted as long as it is within the context and not used profusely. A disclaimer/warning in the description is also required.
