We want to make sure all meditation and mindfulness content on Insight Timer serves our community members well. If you're thinking about uploading a subliminal track, here's what you need to know about how to categorize and submit it.
What Is a Subliminal Track?
Subliminal tracks contain audio messages, such as affirmations or positive suggestions. These messages are played below the normal threshold of human hearing. They're usually layered with music or ambient sounds, with the intention of reaching the listener's subconscious mind directly.
How to Categorize Your Subliminal Track
The right category depends on whether the messages in your track are audible or inaudible.
Clearly Audible Messages
Category: Guided Meditation
If your track contains messages that listeners can hear clearly, submit it as a guided meditation. For these tracks, you may use licensed royalty-free music as background.
Inaudible or Masked Messages
Category: Music
If the messages in your track are inaudible or masked by the music, categorize it as music. For music submissions, all music must be original, and you (the teacher) must own the copyright. Royalty-free music is not permitted for this category.
Why These Guidelines Matter
By following these guidelines, you help us maintain the quality and integrity of content on Insight Timer. This ensures a valuable experience for all our community members and keeps the platform a trusted resource for meditation, mindfulness, and emotional wellbeing.
