I use deep breathing techniques. I use two different apps on my phone. Buddhify and Relax. Both help me relax so that I can go to sleep. I have a lot of intrusive thoughts and worry a lot. Concentrating on my breathing seems to be the only thing that works for me other than taking medication, but I try to control it with my breathing first.
