High quality guided meditations on Youtube are not always the easiest to find, but they’re one of my favorite, everyday go-to’s for holistic self-care.
In this article, I’m going to share my favorite free guided meditations from Youtube that are perfect for re-centering, manifesting and creating a more abundant, beautiful life.

Free guided meditations are an amazingly powerful way for recentering yourself and raising your vibration.
They are so helpful for de-stressing, healing yourself, manifesting desires, starting the day right, getting back on track mentally–I could go on and on!
I listen to at least one guided meditation a day, usually at night before I go to sleep. My favorite guided meditations are usually around 20 minutes long and they all help to instantly relax and re-center me.
If more people meditated, we would see less need for prescription anxiety and depression drugs. Meditation has all around benefits for your mental, emotional, and physical health.
Benefits include everything from heightened immunity, lowered depression anxiety levels, lowered blood pressure, higher self-esteem, improved breathing, to increased focus.
We need meditation like we need physical movement and vibrant foods. We thrive when we practice it.
I now crave meditation when I have to go without it. I can feel the anxiety, negativity, and overwhelment of life start to creep back up on me if I go several days without being able to meditate.
There is no wrong way to meditate and I recommend that everyone follow what feels best to them. I personally prefer guided meditations because they help me focus, visualize, and give me perspective over any situation in my life.
1. Morning Mindset Meditation
This is an excellent meditation to start your day.
It reminds me that each day is a new, fresh start and that I am a deliberate creator of my life.
2. Powerful Nighttime Meditation
This meditation can really be for any time of day, but it’s one of my favorites to listen to before going to sleep since I do my self-care routine at night, so it’s the time that I most often listen to this meditation.
It’s truly perfect and all-encompassing. It goes over everything you need to focus on in order to let go, feel grateful, forgive, and manifest.
3. Manifesting Meditation
This is a great manifesting meditation I’ve used many times over the last several years. You pick one thing you want to manifest which makes it super easy to focus on.
I’ve had more than one reader let me know that they had success with this meditation for manifesting all sorts of things. If you try it, let me know what you think.
4. Feeling Abundant Meditation
This is a great all-around guided meditation for manifesting abundance into your life.
Unlike the previous meditation where you pick out for yourself what you’re wanting to visualize, this one takes you through a beautiful day filled with prosperity and feelings of abundance.
5. Financial Well-Being Meditation
Sometimes, we may find ourselves in a situation where we’re really worried or scared about money, or we’d like to feel better about money in general and release resistant beliefs and feelings around it. This is my favorite meditation for any of those things.
A little added visualization I like to do when listening to this meditation is seeing money gently falling from my ceiling on top of me while I’m laying in bed. It just keeps coming down gently and easily, flowing to me without me having to do anything.
6. Joe Dispenza’s Meditation for Healing the Body
Dr. Joe Dispenza, most well-known for his book You Are the Placebo, teaches that the more we can get ourselves into a state of pure consciousness, the easier it is for our bodies to heal themselves.
It makes sense because you take out the worrying and negative thoughts, and your body is able to rebalance itself. I actually paid for this meditation from his website, so it’s pretty cool to see a version of it on Youtube.
7. Physical Well-Being Meditation
Esther/Abraham Hicks has a way of easily going general about any topic, which is so crucial when we’re stuck on something being “real” in our reality.
This guided meditation for well-being is perfect if you’re worried about your body or health in any way.
8. Ho’oponopono for Self-Love & Radical Forgiveness
If you’ve never heard of Ho’oponopono, I invite you to research it as it’s a very powerful and healing meditation prayer. This is truly a high quality ho’oponopono meditation (they’re hard to find, imo) for healing anything in your life, but it specifically focuses on self-love.
Her accent and way of speaking is sort of ASMR-y, which for me is an added bonus. And if you like ASMR, you can check out my post here on my favorite ASMR videos for relaxation.
9. Relationships Meditation
This meditation is great for shifting your perspective and improving relationships with others in your life.
This meditation will help you to shift your focus and perspective around others in your life, which in turn will manifest improved relationships even when we think it isn’t possible.
10. Detach from Racing Thoughts Guided Meditation
If you have anxiety or are struggling with racing thoughts, this is an amazing guided meditation by Michael Sealey. His voice is soothing and he creates some of the most relaxing meditations and quality hypnosis videos on Youtube.
11. Favorite End of the Day Meditation
I mentioned my favorite nighttime meditation above, but this meditation is my favorite for those nights when I’m super tired, or when I’m overwhelmed and just want to go to sleep.
It helps me feel grateful, at ease, like I have nothing to do, and that my vibration will be resetting while I sleep.
12. Hard Parenting Day Meditation
I’m a parent and some days are just really hard. I can lose my patience and react to my kids in a way that is deeply regretful to me.
This is my favorite meditation for a hard parenting day. It is extremely healing every single time I listen to it.

This is awesome! I have been listening to affirmations before bed recently and it’s been really helpful in getting myself to relax. I’ll have to try some of these, too!

That is so awesome Chelsea! Affirmations are so powerful, even though they can feel so silly especially at first.

Hi Jessica,

I haven’t found any other meditations I’m loving besides the ones I listed here, but I would definitely check out Rebecca’s other meditations if you’re into light sourcing. I’m not totally sure what her other meditations entail, I know one is grounding. I’ll have to do some research and make a new meditation list for this year! I’ll keep your request in mind!
