143 | Sleep Deprivation Isn’t Random — Close These Doors Tonight and Finally Sleep in Peace

Have you ever felt like you’re doing everything right—praying, seeking God, trying to relax—but there’s still a heaviness you can’t shake? In this episode, I’m sharing a part of my story I don’t often revisit. There was a time when I allowed things into my life that seemed harmless on the surface, but they created a level of unrest I couldn’t explain. My peace was disrupted. My sleep was affected. And I didn’t immediately connect the two. If you’ve been dealing with exhaustion or ongoing sleep deprivation, and your nights don’t feel as peaceful as they should, this might help you see things differently. Sometimes we look for a sleep meditation or something quick to help us rest—but there are moments when the root goes deeper than that. We’ll walk through what it means to pay attention to what you’re allowing in, how it affects your mind and your environment, and why that matters more than you think. I’ll also guide you through how to recognize what needs to be released, how to come out of agreement with it, and how to return to a place of clarity and peace. We’ll close with a simple night prayer Christian listeners can use to reset their space, quiet what feels unsettled, and come back to a place where you can truly relax and rest.   Related Episode: 129 - Why Sleep Deprivation is More than Being Tired - My Story   Become a Sweet Sleep Insider: If you want to receive restorative encouragement and sleep tips directly in your inbox, I’d love for you to join our inner circle.
