Thank-you for your kind words. :) I have been a fan of Middle-earth for about thirty years, so of course I love writing within it. It feels like going home, to me. :)
i suffer from chronic anxiety disorder and i can't thank you guys enough for this video. it helps me EVERY TIME i relax when im having severe anxiety. keep it up!
I keep wanting more time in there! Super, I look forward to these at the end of the day, and now my fiancé lays and listens with me. Its a wonderful thing. Namaste.
This actually put me into a dream of the place. I tend to have a connection with nature, maybe it's why I was able to further create the story in my mind. Thank you guys so much!
Your guided work is everything I've been looking for but didn't know could possibly be created the way I imagined. This exceeds every expectation. Please keep it going! Cheers!
I feel the magic as if I was really there in "The Green Wood" :) I was just trying to imagine if Heaven would be something like this, but much better, because no-one can know what Heaven is like unless they have had an experience there and back. I love the music it makes me feel overwhelmed. Which is a good peaceful wonderful, and emotional kind of experience. Like I want to cry, laugh, dance, sing, and sleep all at once. Thank you Honest Guys, these meditations really do help me. :)
Thank you for the peace of Middle Earth. You have helped me so much. I wish I had found you sooner, but now that I have, I begin each day with your wonderful meditations and before I go to bed I can now do it on my own.
Man, I love your meditation videos so much. Help really me feel calm and relax, they're real inspiration for my paintings and drawings. :) Thanks Honest guys!
Love this meditation! It is so enchanting; I am always amazed by every element of it. I would love a continuation of it, one where we are able to enter the realm of these mystical beings...
For me these are the only guided meditations that will work to deeply relax me. I am so very grateful that I 'found' these as they have been a saving grace. I want you guys to know how much I appreciate what you do.
The writing is really an asset IMO. It's hard to find content that is so richly or penetratingly descriptive that doesn't come off as distractingly self indulgent or contrived. Sion's absence empowers our presence.
Thank you very much, R.G Hornbeck . We're very lucky to have Sian as our writer. She says she tries to absence herself when she writes and just experience the scenes
Would love if you made another lotr meditation on a journey into the Elven Kings Hall leading on from this or one walking through lothlorian. Absolutely love listening to your video's just before bed. feel recharged for my stressful day at work. thankyou honest guys!
We have done one in the Elven King's Halls, which ends going back to the Hidden Valley, and then to the shores of the sea and sailing into the west, 3 different tracks - it is on our Elven Odyssey album :)
Been going thru some stressful times. Remember how much I used to love guided imagery, so tried looking GI up as a key word and stumbled upon your vids. I am in love again with them. It has been almost 10 yrs since I listened to them. Medication has been what I was using for sleep for the past 15 years. Now, I am trying the more calming effects (less side-effects) of music and sounds. Thanks so much. You are a life saver.. These are wonderful.. :) Lil
Oh wow, thank you guys so much for replying, it really means a lot that you actually connect with your viewers! If this isn't out of line, another sci-fi / futuristic meditation would be amazing, if at all possible (:
I just found your middle earth meditations on youtube! I just love them,this is my favourite! I just ordered the cd, cant wait for it to arrive! Keep up the good work
I know you have heard it like a million times already but YOU ARE SO AMAZING. I am using your meditations for a while now to calm down in the evenings and it works so well. I am kind of addicted to that but I can't thank you enough for these beautiful videos! Love from Germany
I look forward to listening to these Middle Earth meditations every evening after work. They help relieve my stress and involve my favorite fantasy lore. What more could I ask for? Thank you TheHonestGuys, you are incredible! I listen every night!
I've just discovered these meditations by TheHonestGuys, and I also find myself unexpectedly giggling at times-- guess they just make me kinda giddy? Not sure, but I think they're lovely as well! I listen to them every night now.
the. greatest...peaceful bliss. its a magic carpet ride I want to stay on forever....a feeling. non. other like...any medication. why would anyone want to live anywhere else ..?🎆
Is there a part 2 of this? i need you to guide me to enter this place! I mean.. I know i can do it by myself, as you sugest on this video.. But if only you guide us to this place again, and we can enter, it would be awesome.. All the sound design and the ambiance you create, is amazing! Hope you can make more of this kind of videos! =D
Glad you liked it Austin. Very well spotted! I must have proof read everything half a dozen times before rendering the final copy. Was probably a case of couldn't see the wood for the trees!
I don't think there is anything wrong with having a voice that will send people to sleep in a meditation video :) Meditation is for relaxing and calming, whereas guided visualisations are more like story-telling. I can't read meditation; we experimented a couple of years ago. I read out a Middle-earth meditation I'd written, and recorded it for Richard and Kev to listen to. I declaimed it as if it was Shakespeare. It was the opposite of relaxing, which is why Richard always reads them. :)
@Shelley Anthony Shelley, I am sure that Jess didn't mean nothing rude with his words. Report someone for a bit "rude-lovely" words have no sense. That is mine opinion..
hi guys... can you make more meditation guides likes this one ( Middle Earth/ Hobbit) ? By the way, your meditation guides are amazing, thank you for this!
I love the middle earth meditations series and I've used them each several times. I really like the initial image of sunlight on water, I think that would be much more interesting to meditate to than a candle flame. The only odd thing about this visualization is that every time I've listened to it the rhythm of the words is very choppy, kind of like a bad William Shatner impersonation. I'm not sure if it is this video or my computer settings.
I knew what you meant, :) I just don't like to hear people denigrating themselves. I think it's good to practice and keep listening back; I think that is how Rick did it. Yes, I sounded like I was reading Lord of the Rings - far to excited for meditation XD
You know Honest Guys, if you were to write a book on Middle Earth, I would buy it. Is it a possibility or am I dreaming? I don't believe I have ever heard stories like these told so enjoyable in my life. Middle Earth, the book, :)
Oh my goodness, wowww, this is amazing! I think this is my favorite one so far of yours! The element of the animals, the elves, and everything to do with nature did it for me. Not to mention, I'm a writer of fairy tales, and have never stopped reading them and watching films of them, and this was like walking directly into the world of fairy tale. Please keep them coming. The world needs this kind of beauty! Blessings & peace to you guys. p.s. Does Sian have any of his writing available somewhere? If not, I hope he will at some point.
Poetry of Birds We're really pleased you liked this, Poetry :) We hoped it would appeal to people who still have magic within their souls, or who wanted to find it :) It's wonderful that you, as a writer, enjoyed this so much.
+Black Mountain I started off doing guided meditations before I went to sleep because I couldn't fit them in any other time. They were often so relaxing I did go to sleep. If you don't mind sleeping it's no problem.
I am about to have a birthday and for several reasons it's going to be a bit sad. I wonder if you could make a birthday ons, like the lonely one but specially for birthdays. Maybe a Christmas one as well, you get the idea.
+jennifer McDonald We have the Holiday one, Jennifer. We will note this, but are scheduled for months ahead at the moment. But we do wish you a blessings for your birthday and that your life may become happy
Is there a possibility to take some of the bass out of the audio? Give it some more treble? Maybe it's just because of my somewhat funky hearing, but I have trouble understanding what he's saying. I have to strain to understand it, or turn the volume up so much that it ends up being not so very relaxing after all. :( And I'd so love to listen to this before going to sleep, because otherwise it's sooo beautiful!
+ASMRchitect I'm afraid that was only a limited edition, ASMR, and it's not for sale now, though we may put it up in the future, we do have 'The Elven Odyssey' which has 3 guided meditations unique to the album, if you were interested in that. It is Elf-Centric.
Ed Crust That's a pain :( But it must be a TH-cam glitch :\ If you watch our Facebook page (links should be at the top) we always post new uploads on there each week.
how the hell do I come across some water, walk on following the deer who has stepped over this stream to walk on away from me, so now I passed it, then I find a clearing, and somehow the stream has suddenly jumped parallel to it's position into this clearing, how the hell can the stream run into this clearing, has grvity stopped working?.. why do you always do this in your mediation, it would be impossible, how the hell am I supposed to imagine that?
Perhaps the trail is not straight, perhaps there is more than one stream, or perhaps the stream winds around - not all streams or paths are straight.... let go of the linear thoughts... use your imagination
Thank-you for your kind words. :) I have been a fan of Middle-earth for about thirty years, so of course I love writing within it. It feels like going home, to me. :)
i suffer from chronic anxiety disorder and i can't thank you guys enough for this video. it helps me EVERY TIME i relax when im having severe anxiety. keep it up!

Kirsti Hudson What a beautiful way to describe your feeling :) We are so glad that the meditations are helpful, Kirsti :)
I love you both. You make life much more beautiful on Earth. Thank you.
+Celestial Love & Light Aww, thank you very much :) Such kind words
You guys need to do a continuation to this meditation that's like an hour long. :)
Thank you for the peace of Middle Earth. You have helped me so much. I wish I had found you sooner, but now that I have, I begin each day with your wonderful meditations and before I go to bed I can now do it on my own.
Man, I love your meditation videos so much. Help really me feel calm and relax, they're real inspiration for my paintings and drawings. :)

MaggieTheEevee Artist where are you now
Love this meditation! It is so enchanting; I am always amazed by every element of it. I would love a continuation of it, one where we are able to enter the realm of these mystical beings...
Kyah Phelan We will make a note of that, Kyah. :) Thank-you, we are very pleased you liked it :)
I've listen to many online. But never as good as yours. Idk why. ❓.. You take me to a land far beyond. Mind blowing.
As an anxiety sufferer, that was blissful.....thanks.....are there any others like this?
For me these are the only guided meditations that will work to deeply relax me. I am so very grateful that I 'found' these as they have been a saving grace. I want you guys to know how much I appreciate what you do.

There is now one that is about the golden woods. Hope you have found it. Blessings, Dot

@Shelley Anthony Shelley, I am sure that Jess didn't mean nothing rude with his words.
Report someone for a bit "rude-lovely" words have no sense.
That is mine opinion..
This was great keep up the great work
:) Made my week!
hi, i loved it! but is there a part 2 (or 3) where we get to enter the gates?? i felt a bit disappointed and didnt want to leave!
Your supposed to fill in the rest of the story yourself. At least I think so.
Your supposed to fill in the rest of the story yourself. At least I think so.

I was totally there and with my little biy. Bliss.
Clare McGrath We're glad it is helpful, Clare :)
More middle earth please,

Longer and longer each nite last nite from 9-4 fantastic xx
That's really good. Were happy it helps you sleep. :)
i would love to have a Lothlorien one.
It's so hard to come back from Middle Earth once I'm there though. ☺️
hi guys... can you make more meditation guides likes this one ( Middle Earth/ Hobbit) ? By the way, your meditation guides are amazing, thank you for this!
Cool clip!

Your writing and pacing is gorgeous! What does LOTR stand for? Namaste!
Lord of the Rings :) And thank you very much
Cyndi Perkins Namaste is right
Hello! I love your middle earth meditations, could you do one with Lothlorien and harp music in it? have a good day! :)
Like the quality of this guided meditation. Although the story is a little boring for me. Thank you for sharing.
You know Honest Guys, if you were to write a book on Middle Earth, I would buy it. Is it a possibility or am I dreaming? I don't believe I have ever heard stories like these told so enjoyable in my life. Middle Earth, the book, :)

you guys should try make harry potter guide
Scott Bartlett sounds like an awesome idea
IT really easy get the music and turn into a meditation.
I agree
#thehonestguys ...you guys should do a pirate/tropical beach theme meditation
omg after 5 min i think i fall asleep and wook up at the last 30 second omg :D Should I do this meditation when I am tired?
+Black Mountain I started off doing guided meditations before I went to sleep because I couldn't fit them in any other time. They were often so relaxing I did go to sleep. If you don't mind sleeping it's no problem.
I am about to have a birthday and for several reasons it's going to be a bit sad. I wonder if you could make a birthday ons, like the lonely one but specially for birthdays. Maybe a Christmas one as well, you get the idea.
+jennifer McDonald We have the Holiday one, Jennifer. We will note this, but are scheduled for months ahead at the moment. But we do wish you a blessings for your birthday and that your life may become happy
Cheers Rick nice and relaxing :-) . You missed the "i" out of middle earth on the intro. :-)
Is there a possibility to take some of the bass out of the audio? Give it some more treble? Maybe it's just because of my somewhat funky hearing, but I have trouble understanding what he's saying. I have to strain to understand it, or turn the volume up so much that it ends up being not so very relaxing after all. :( And I'd so love to listen to this before going to sleep, because otherwise it's sooo beautiful!
+Akopalypse I have the exact same problem. I can't get the deep hushed whispery sounds.
I can't find the link to the full middle earth meditations album with the extras on it. Am I just not looking in the right places?
+ASMRchitect I'm afraid that was only a limited edition, ASMR, and it's not for sale now, though we may put it up in the future, we do have 'The Elven Odyssey' which has 3 guided meditations unique to the album, if you were interested in that. It is Elf-Centric.
Is there one where you keep going towards the light???? :) I was really sad to have to leave... :) Thank you for this video. Blessings
I am listed as subscribed for your updates but don't get them. ???
Ed Crust That's a pain :( But it must be a TH-cam glitch :\ If you watch our Facebook page (links should be at the top) we always post new uploads on there each week.
how the hell do I come across some water, walk on following the deer who has stepped over this stream to walk on away from me, so now I passed it, then I find a clearing, and somehow the stream has suddenly jumped parallel to it's position into this clearing, how the hell can the stream run into this clearing, has grvity stopped working?.. why do you always do this in your mediation, it would be impossible, how the hell am I supposed to imagine that?
Perhaps the trail is not straight, perhaps there is more than one stream, or perhaps the stream winds around - not all streams or paths are straight.... let go of the linear thoughts... use your imagination
ok, ok I'll try it again.. but it would be alot easier if it conformed to a physics my mind can comprehend.
Jack Hernandez haha! I know exactly how you were feeling! me too! We have to search for the right one for us.
