Meet Mello - Episode 0

Mello transforms children's big questions and whimsical what-ifs into gentle guided meditations, helping them explore feelings, embrace stillness, and see the world with fresh curiosity.

  • Here at Mello we love exploring children's curiosities. We take their big questions, tiny ponderings, and whimsical what-ifs and turn them into guided meditations. These gentle adventures are designed to help kids explore their feelings, embrace stillness, and see the world with a fresh perspective.

    Some journeys are made for bedtime, wrapped in blue, guiding little minds toward rest. Others glow orange, bringing mindfulness into the day—helping kids find calm, focus, and a sense of adventure wherever they are.

    For the best experience, you might enjoy listening with headphones or a speaker. But however you choose to listen, we’re happy you’re here. :)

  • You know that moment when you are putting your child to bed - the world slows down, the lights dim, and just as sleep is about to arrive… their questions begin.

    Why do stars twinkle? What if my stuffed animals have secret meetings? Could I ride a cloud if I had the right shoes? What would it feel like to float like a jellyfish?

    Here at Mello, we LOVE those questions. In fact that's how it all began. 

    My name is Cassie, and I’ve always been fascinated with the way kid’s minds work. So I got my degree in education and put it to use with five kids. 

    Yup. Every day is an adventure. 

    Like a lot of parents, I was always on the lookout for tools to help my kids manage their emotions and practice mindfulness. My youngest daughter fell in love with guided meditations, but quickly became bored with the content. Generic follow the rainbows and counting sheep just wouldn't do for her! 

    Oh no, in my own bedtime drowsiness she had other wild ideas. 

    “Hey Mom, can you tell me a meditation about how water bottles are made?”

    “Sure sweetheart, I will absolutely lull you to sleep with curious facts about water bottles”

    But it turns out, it was incredible! Leaning into her curiosity and vivid imagination, all while weaving in lessons about mindfulness, became my favorite part of the day. And to my great joy, my daughters too! 

    When I shared these bedtime meditations with Joe, our sound engineer, he immediately felt the magic too. With his brilliance in creating stories with sound, we combined our strengths to bring mello to life.  

    I remember the moment I heard our first completed meditation “what is a day like for a platypus”. I was stunned. The meditation we crafted together combined Joe’s enchanting soundscape with my many years of reading bedtime stories - felt truly magical. 

    We both knew we had to share this magic with as many people as possible!

    So, we take those big questions, the tiny ponderings, and whimsical what-ifs and turn them into guided meditations — these gentle adventures are designed to help kids understand their feelings, embrace stillness, and hopefully shift the way they go about their day. For the best experience, you might enjoy listening with headphones or a speaker. But however you choose to listen, we’re happy you’re here. :) 

    Some journeys are made for bedtime, wrapped in blue, designed to guide little minds toward sleep. While others glow orange, bringing mindfulness into their day—helping kids find calm, focus, and a sense of adventure wherever they are.

    Will they have even more questions tomorrow? Absolutely. But for now, let’s settle their busy minds, ease their big emotions, and wrap them in the cozy magic of a Mello meditation.

    Take a deep breath, press play, and let the journey begin. Because every child deserves a space to wonder, to dream, and to simply be. And every parent deserves a moment of peace.
