Sleeping

I guess what I'm trying to add with the above is that if you are in a state that can accommodate falling asleep easier then that might help as well.

Yes for that my best method is to watch a movie i know by heart..   Generally something slow in the beginning so its easy to close my eyes and follow the movie in my head...   "Sphere" is a great one.    (of course this can backfire if you use your favorite movies for this as it might be hard to stay awake to them later lol)

Having a cat sit in your lap might do the trick too
