Bedtime Rituals to End Worry Spirals :: Emily Ley [Ep 439]
November 13, 2023
•47m
What are two words to describe your mind when your head hits the pillow most nights?
The quiet space before sleep can be our most vulnerable moments. Whether it’s to-do’s or dredging up memories from the past, our thoughts can feel overwhelming. If we let our mind spiral we’re sacrificing the rest God intends us to enjoy. But my guest this week, Emily Ley has some bedtime rituals that can help us stop the spiraling. Crafted to help herself with the nighttime barrage of thoughts, Emily’s simple routines and reminders can set you on a path to the peace that comes, not from an easy life, but from an abiding trust in God.
Emily is a mom of three, a best-selling author, and the founder of organizational products and tools company, Simplified.

How are you doing?
Honestly.
What is the pace of your day? What do you long for and feel you are missing out on? What activities have you crammed in your life out of a “should” mentality? When do you focus on your spiritual life?
