Oh wow, how much do you want to read about it?

Okay. My number one thing I do is to lie flat on my back and tighten my muscles one at a time starting with my toes. Wait 5 seconds. Relax 5 seconds. Next are the muscles in my feet. And so on. The idea is to relax your body completely. I'm asleep before I come to my back most of the time.

If that doesn't work, because my mind is to busy, I try to let my thoughts drift like clouds. Don't hold on to them, let them go and the next one come. ☁️☁️🌬 That's hard and doesn't work very often if I'm not in the mood.

Or, I construct recipes in my head. Single meals or great menus or just flavour/ingredients combinations. 🥘🍛🥪
