Struggling to Fall Asleep? You Found the Right Place!
If you’re having trouble falling asleep at night, you’ve clicked on a super helpful link!
Here’s a fun little backstory: In 2022, I wrote a random blog post about sleep that somehow keeps showing up at the top of Google searches. But here’s the cool part—maybe you were meant to find this page today.
It’s now February 2025, and we’ve heard from so many people like you who just can’t seem to get restful sleep. So, we decided to do something about it!
Introducing Soul Rest—a FREE audio experience designed to help you unwind and drift off peacefully. This calming, God-centered audio is filled with soothing guidance, body scanning and Scripture to help quiet your mind.
All you have to do is click the purple box below and sign up to get instant access. Let Soul Rest guide you into the peaceful sleep you deserve!

If audio is not your thing and you just want some written prayers, I wanted to share a few different prayers you can pray when you can't sleep and you are feeling anxious. Print these out and put them by your bedside.

God of peace and rest
You are the God who gives us peace in the midst of our busy lives. You are the God who gives us rest for our weary souls. You are a refuge from stress, anxiety, fear and worry. Come to me now and grant me this peace and rest so I can sleep more soundly tonight. Amen.

Another prayer
God, please help me feel your loving presence, Lord. Guide me and protect me from the evil one. Help me feel safe and secure in all circumstances of life. Comfort me with your love and peace as I go through this difficult time in my life. Help me have sweet sleep as I trust in your perfect plan for my life.
I hope this helps!
I hope these prayers help you to sleep and relax. If it didn’t, consider having someone read these prayers out loud over you.
Another place you can get prayer is at our Retreat coming up. Find out all the details here.
Much love to you all,
