About Live From Rest

ABOUT THE APP

We created this app because we needed it, we think you might need it too. In a world obsessed with doing, we are discovering the ancient art of being.

WHAT YOU'LL GET (everything totally free):

- An oasis of calm, self-care and the discovery of a better way to live
- A beginners guide to Biblical meditation and mindfulness
- Meditations that cover a wide range of topics such as joy, gratitude and freedom from stress.
- Customisable sessions; choose the music, voice, meditation and timings that best suit you.
- Regular updates with new content.

Life for too many is a struggle. So often we adopt a lifestyle that is frantic and busy and we then long for the next day off, the next vacation or to get beyond the next deadline. We so easily find ourselves living simply FOR rest. Yet for those who know God, life can and should be lived FROM rest!

This app is designed to help you find and maintain a place of peace. It is from this place that we actually become so much more productive. When we learn to “let go and let God” life actually becomes so much more joyful and fruitful.

Our prayer is that this app will help you find the rhythm of rest that God always intended you to have. As you rest, as you simply abide in Him, may you know the beauty of His peace.

“Drop Thy still dews of quietness,
Till all our strivings cease;
Take from our souls the strain and stress,
And let our ordered lives confess
The beauty of Thy peace.”

John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892)

We are very excited about our new, fresh design taking us into this new year. We do hope you like it too!

We have some great new meditations with this update. We also have many great ideas for more meditations and we’re looking to give you regular updates from here on!

WHAT’S NEW IN THIS UPDATE

1. SPECIALS
We’ve made a new category within the ‘gratitude’ section, which is for prayer and meditation for particular circumstances. We have put the existing special meditations ‘My healer’ and ‘Comfort in grief’ into this section and we have added another meditation especially for expectant mothers called “I bless my child”. Please use this to pray for and bless your child if you’re pregnant!

2. Dear Lord and Father
Many of us love the Hymn “Dear Lord and Father of mankind”. This is such a lovely prayer to God, that we would know the beauty of His peace. Let’s use these words, which were beautifully crafted by John Greenleaf Whittier in 1872, to take us to a place of stillness.

3. Step-3 Follow
This is especially designed for those on a 12-step journey, a journey from which we can ALL benefit. In this meditation we reflect on the decision to follow Jesus.

4. Minimal guidance – 30 minutes
We’ve had a lot of positive comments about the ‘minimal guidance’ meditations and 30 minutes is a good length! We’ll add 40 minutes soon.
