A soundtrack that follows the breath
Yoga, meditation, mindfulness, massage: build a continuous soundscape at the exact length of your session, with no cuts that pull the mind back to thought.
Quick overview
In a calm practice, music holds a subtle place: present without being intrusive, continuous without becoming hypnotic. With Mixly, yoga teachers (vinyasa, hatha, yin), meditation guides, mindfulness coaches and massage practitioners build a soundtrack matched to the precise length of their session, with imperceptible transitions that never interrupt the breath.

Why Mixly
Gentle transitions
Long crossfades (10-15s) blend into one another without being noticed.
Precise length
60-min yoga, 20-min guided meditation, 90-min massage: hit the duration to the minute.
Ambient loudness
Normalization keeps a low, constant level so it never covers the teacher's voice.
Tailor-made
Match the soundtrack to your style (slow yin, dynamic vinyasa) using your favorite tracks.
How to do it, step by step
- Step 1
Pick 4-8 tracks
Prefer long pieces (5-8 min). Plan 6 tracks for a 1-hour session with crossfades.
- Step 2
Sort by phase
Awakening (gentle) → body (rhythmic) → final relaxation (very gentle). Music guides the energy.
- Step 3
10-15 second crossfades
Longer than on a dynamic mix to stay in continuity.
- Step 4
Export and rehearse
Run the mix once in rehearsal to verify duration and flow.
Pro tips
Prefer instrumentals
Lyrics pull the mind's attention. Prefer instrumental tracks or foreign-language vocals.
Avoid peaks
No sudden crescendos: music should stay below conscious focus, not call to it.
Land the end on relaxation
The last track accompanies savasana or the meditation exit: it should be the gentlest.
Verify rights
For a paid class, verify licensing (royalty-free music or appropriate performance license depending on context).
