Battling Mental Overload in Prayer


On The Podcast

Does your mind feel too cluttered for prayer?

When mental exhaustion sets in, connecting with God can seem impossible—not because you don’t want to pray, but because you’re battling mental overload.

In today’s episode, Rachel Wojo explores how to pray when your mind is overwhelmed. You’ll discover that God doesn’t require your mental clarity to hear your heart’s cry, and how He meets you in your exhaustion, not despite it.

Through personal experience and biblical wisdom from Psalm 62, Rachel shares practical ways to find sacred rest for your soul and reconnect with God even in your most mentally taxing seasons.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • How to identify which type of exhaustion you’re experiencing—physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual
  • Why “prayer as presence” is more powerful than “prayer as performance”
  • Practical boundaries to protect your mental space for meaningful prayer
  • How mental overload doesn’t disqualify your prayers—it might make them more authentic
  • Why your simplest prayer might be your most powerful one
