James Cole

James Cole is a meditation guide, hypnotherapist, and storyteller, and the creator of Empowering Meditations. He began meditating as a teenager and, over time, explored a wide range of styles and approaches, gradually shaping a practice that blends deep relaxation, guided visualisation, and narrative-driven inner work. Through Empowering Meditations, James creates immersive, story-based guided meditations designed to help people slow down, release emotional weight, and reconnect with a sense of inner calm and clarity. Listeners often describe these sessions as gentle yet powerful, with moments of unexpected emotional release, insight, or relief. Alongside his meditation work, James also explores deeper and more raw emotional terrain through music and storytelling with his band, Seven Shades of Nothing. This creative work informs the emotional depth and honesty that runs through his meditations, offering space for reflection, healing, and inner change.

Fantastic! Very effective way of relaxing by guiding my attention by expanding the number of senses to keep track of and then focusing it down concentrating into single minded focus of relaxation. My brain and I enjoyed this.
