Sanityseeker, thanks so much for that useful input.
I want to give it a try, and hope it gives me some control over what appears to be uncontrolled thoughts and auditory hallucinations imposing themselves on me all night. Last night I went to bed around 23h00 and by 01h30 I was still seeing high speed flashes of spinning white bodies, syringe needles, crowds leering scathingly at me, all the while heavy metal guitars and fast paced drums were pushing the pace faster and faster. No sound of crickets or trickle of the fish tank - it was all drowned out by this bizarre vision and internal noise.
Oh well, it gives me some material with which to develop some new art work LOL.

Being in the moment is something I tend to do when scuba diving. If the dive type allows it, I like to close my eyes and simply feel the water around me - slow deep breathing, the sensation of being weightless, relying only on the pressure in my ears to tell me if I am ascending or descending, and just being immersed in the sounds of the bubbles escaping and of the fish pecking on the rocks. I'm quite comfortable doing this at night with the lights off, or in water that is so black you can only navigate by feel. It forces you into an inner realm and to be at peace with it, and not afraid.
But I haven't dived in 19 months because of this non stop rather extreme rapid cycling. Maybe it is time to get back to my amniotic fluid.

I'll check out those links so long.
