Bedtime Rituals to End Worry Spirals :: Emily Ley [Ep 439]


Listen Later

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.
