Podcast
Meditation Mama | Guided Meditations for Pregnancy, Labor & Postpartum
Meditation Mama is an intentional, nurturing guided meditation podcast for mothers at every stage of early motherhood—fertility, pregnancy, labor, postpartum, and beyond. Created by a mother for mothers and hosted by meditation teacher and author Kelly Smith (also the creator of Mindful in Minutes), this show offers gentle, accessible, no-fluff meditation practices designed to fit into real life.
Each episode delivers a soulful, guided practice to support you through the real challenges of motherhood, whether you’re seeking a fertility meditation, pregnancy affirmations, a calming meditation for labor and delivery, postpartum overwhelm support, a prenatal sleep meditation, or a moment to bond with your baby.
If you’re feeling anxious, exhausted, or in need of a pause, Meditation Mama meets you where you are—with guided meditations for anxiety, stress relief, rest, healing, and self-love. From yoga nidra for deep rest to quick breathing meditations for calm, these episodes are designed to help you feel more grounded, supported, and at ease during the tender seasons of motherhood.
With over a decade of experience as a meditation teacher and E-RYT 500/YACEP yoga teacher, Kelly offers grounded, heart-centered guidance and a comforting voice you can trust—helping you create a peaceful connection with yourself and your baby, one meditation at a time.
