Good Night: Interfaith Prayers and Meditations Before Sleep contains sacred readings from many spiritual traditions and religions, along with diverse secular selections. Its meditations, poetry, thoughts, and prayers are designed to help us put the day to rest and, with God as the final thought, with hearts at ease, sleep deeply and well.
A unique aspect of the book is that it uses gender-neutral language throughout, including in references to God. Archaic language is updated, with the original version appearing after the adapted version.
There are humorous readings, too. Sometimes being able to laugh at circumstances, or at oneself, is what is most needed.
Good Night is organized around feelings, such as hope, fear, anger, mourning, forgiveness, patience, and comfort. There is a set of readings for forty nights, designed to help us make peace with our day, ourselves, each other, and God. This helps us sleep well and cope better with whatever tomorrow brings.
