There is one. I forget the term, but it is about interrupting looping thought processes.

Basically choose a random letter in the alphabet, or a word with lots of different letters in it (so not "visibility") and then go letter by letter thinking of words with that initial letter. For each letter, go until you can't really think of more, and then move onto the next number. Continue the moment you can't tihnk of another word... it's not about stressing yourself out.

This makes it pretty much impossible to think of things that keep you awake (problems, negativity, etc), and your brain gets super tired of thinking up randdomish words that have little to nothing to do with each other.
