I listened to this while jogging on the treadmill because I needed to feel energized but also calm in spirit. This pod cast achieves that and more. It’s my new go-to before bed or if I need a break during the day. Highly recommend

Soothing to the mind and soul in times of too much uncertainty. Very relatable. I would like the lovely background piano to be a little less loud so your voice is heard better. Thanks forever.

Literally started last night and absolutely love it. You voice is incredible and soft, and your words hit right were and when they need to. Idk if that made sense but I love it! 👍👍

I’m going through a difficult mental space right now. I’m trying to discover the source of my restlessness, but listening to this podcast helped me feel a little more re-centered and connected in a society that makes us feel like we are never enough. The pressure to be overly productive in order to be successful in life is exhausting. This podcast put my mind back into perspective, and it’s the small goals we achieve every day is what’s important to becoming our authentic self. LOVE THIS!

Your words are very healing, your voice is calming and your podcast is inspiring!! Thank you for giving this space. God bless!

Always helps me to relax when I am trying to fall asleep. I listen every night!

Firstly, your music was enchanting on this episode!! Absolutely lovely and I have been listening to you for a couple years and it always seems like you’re talking directly to me. I really really enjoyed the “listen beyond words” episode…it was so very good!! Thank you for your gift you give to us all. 🌈Maggie

My number #1 podcast when I am feeling anxious or stressed. I just love it and it helps me to realize and reflect on things.

Wonderful, relaxing, and helpful during these trying times. Thanks so much to Chad Lawson!

The background music calms you and takes you on a journey. Its so refreshing and calming

Thank you so much

I enjoyed this podcast a lot. It’s exactly what my over active mind needs lo unwind at the end of a long day. Your music is also great! Thank you.

Just found this podcast and really enjoying the few episodes I listened to and intend to listen to many more as I browsed the episode titles. A gem also that it is not flooded with ads like so many podcasts I used to listen to and haven’t in at least a year but this one is a wonderful welcoming back to Apple Podcasts.

I absolutely love this. I was looking to add something to my evening routine to help me wind down a little and stumbled across this podcast. I noticed the short durations (great for end of day things- for me) and the messages all sounded so on point with my journey currently. It’s actually exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you for creating such a warm, safe space for self-discovery.

This podcast really helped me open my eye to boundaries I need to make and conversations I need to have. It also helped me be grateful for all the little things in my life, most of all it helps me become more positive with my actions and attitude

I listen to your show as part of my self care. I know it will bring some peace. Sometimes I listen when I’m on my way to work as a nurse. It helps me be level headed and calm during an inevitably hectic day. Your work here is helpful to many. Thank you.

This podcast has brought tears to my eyes. But in a good way. That’s how much of a deep connection I feel within this podcast. From the music to the words and or stories told to the soothing voice of Chad makes this podcast amazing. This podcast makes me feel understood without even saying how I feel. I would recommend this podcast 100 times over. Just the trailer podcast featuring finding Nemo had me hooked. This podcast is everything that I needed even if it’s just verbally comforting. Thank you Chad

the background music is too loud and distracting

This podcast is so amazing. 😍

Perfect to listen anytime of the day, Morin if or night, even useful to distract you from busy thoughts and get you clear and open after. The combination with piano on background is brilliant. Thank you Chad!

I am so grateful to have found this podcast. It brings intentionality, ease, and clarity to my life. Thank you for the light you emit to our world.

I’m kind of late to this podcast, but am so happy I discovered it. I listen at night to help me fall asleep and stay asleep. This podcast feels like having a wonderfully kind friend who knows just what to say to let you know how much they care so you can indeed, “calm it down.” Thank you so much.

It’s like a pillow for my thoughts. I listen to this when I’m heading to bed because it really helps me shut down the negative voices in my head. Something I didn’t know I needed until it was something I experienced. Now I look forward to listening to it every night. I’ve restarted it already and will again when it comes time. Even if I’m not always paying attention to what exactly is being said his voice is so soothing and the piano is a perfect touch but listening to what’s being said is still such a pleasure for me. The fact I use this to sleep I’m hearing different stuff than last time because I’m awake during different periods. I’m rambling. I love this podcast. If you need something to help you unwind this is a great place to be.

Me find some peace

Love this podcast but hate the ads. Such a disturbing interruption to a calming experience. Ugh

Thank you for a truly amazing podcast. Each episode brings me self awareness and comfort in knowing I’m not alone. After each episode I read the transcript. Thank you for providing another way of letting the message sink in. Your words are so helpful!

I have been listening to the podcast for 5 days in a row now. I started my morning with this podcast after reading the Bible. My favorite episode was about healing our inner child. It has helped me to heal and face emotions I didn’t want to feel. The music in the background is very calming. It makes the podcast feel like a meditation experience to release emotions that we hold back through thinking and realizing the things that he talks about.

I started tuning in weekly to Calm It Down at the beginning of the year, and now during the downtime between new episodes, I’m backtracking and catching up with the old episodes. Each one is a half-hour oasis of tranquility for the mind and spirit, and the ideas and practices that Mr. Lawson shares with his listeners in each episode are gold for those wanting to “calm it down.” Keep up the good work, Mr. Lawson!

i absolutely love this podcast!! every night i will play an episode, and i’ll be in a peaceful and perfect mood. i’ve learned so much. i may not have depression or anything, but this is just helpful in my everyday life for staying happy and calm 😌… -random side note- after doing box breathing i can now hold my breath for 2mins and 23 seconds 😄 idk why i just find that awesome

Beautiful piano music and a dreamy voice. A wonderful way to relax and let go of the day before bedtime.

I have wanted to get into podcast forever, and I absolutely love this one!

The delivery and messages are gentle and soothing. Stories told in a relatable way that I can apply to my own life. After listening I always have a new perspective.

I have found this content to be far greater than I was expecting (I don't know what I was expecting). What a wonderful way to wind down, and to work on myself in exactly the way I want to work on myself. This is a beautiful, valuable podcast!

Thanks, I love it so much 🙏

I love how I can connect with each story and it helps how I feel. This podcast really helps me calm down, I can connect to each story knowing I’m not alone on this journey.

I tune in every Tuesday to listen to the latest episode. Thank for teaching me things I didn’t know I needed to know. It is truly a blessing to be able to listen to your podcast. Thanks for helping me calm it down.

I’m a medical professional, and I’m quite picky about what I wanna listen to. I don’t need the technical and medical jargon as that is not what I’m here for. I don’t need someone who knows chemistry and physics and pharmacology and physiology to explain my thoughts and emotions. I need a sympathetic voice, a shoulder to lean on. I need someone who understands my humanity in a real-life, organic way, without sounding superior and in a way that is relatable and seeing eye-to-eye… just like a friend. That’s what we need—a friend, more than a teacher even. And though you don’t really hear nor see me, your gentle voice makes me feel like you are seeing me and listening to me as well. Your podcast is a gem.

Dear Narrator, This world changes from war to peace than back to war. When I was in 7th grade I thought that I couldn’t fit into the group. But after hearing every single podcast made me feel like I can accomplish anything. “Whose world is this? I think I know. Its owner must be quite happy though. Full of joy like a vivid rainbow, I watch him laugh. I cry Hello.” -Mango Cats Sincerely, Mango Cats

This is one of my favorite podcasts to listen to before bed. Always helps me go to sleep with a better mindset and appreciate the day that has past and look forward for a better tomorrow.

This was a very interesting listen, I have been on a downward trend of not believing in myself. I wish I had heard this a few years ago. Hopefully I can re change my brain. Than you for gifting us with your talents. Karen

It is just so relaxing and so smooth and the guys voice is really really soft very good well done

This podcast is great. I listen to one episode before bed, and it helps me calm down after a busy day. I’m a phd student and I’m always stressed. This podcast is a great help.

My mom died and I miss her a lot. Sometimes I miss having a parent (and my friend) to talk to and make me feel better about things in my life. I’ve tried to hobble together podcasts that I like to think she would give similar advice. It’s a way to still have her close and to show myself a little love and compassion. This is one of those PC. His voice is very soothing and helps my anxiety. When I listen it makes me feel less alone in this world. Thank you for taking the time to create this content. It’s helped me more than you know. And your music is beautiful. It’s calming when paired with the talking points. Thank you so much.

Every time I feel anxious or want to relax I listen to this pod. The topics discussed are truly helpful and relatable for me.

your podcast always calms me down when im angry by the way im new here anyways can you plz download more eps pleas 😘

I meditate every day, for at least 10min / day. I think this is both annoying that he keeps talking and what he talks about is self serving.

I really love this podcast because it is very helpful to me whenever I am having a very horrible time. I used to have tons of trouble with stress and anxiety but then I started listening to this podcast and it helped me remember that it will be okay and there is always a way to make good even out of a bad situation.

I’ve been struggling a lot and it’s nice to hear someone give me advice on how to be a better person.

You really calm my soul.

is very calming 🌟
