Yeah, I´ve heard that autohypnosis can help. Unfortunately it doesn´t work for me. I repeated the same sentence for example: I´m very tired over and over again with no result. Anyway it´s a good thing that you´ve posted these methods here. Hopefully it helps a lot of people.

This may sound silly or childish, but I've found that "rocking" myself to sleep really helps a lot. I imagine the repetition of a particular word might do the same kind of thing, but I seem to benefit from the physical rocking motion. Might be one of the reasons I'll konk out as a passenger in a car in a second flat. LOL! So, that's at least a suggestion to try, if you are sleeping alone or if your sleep partner doesn't mind the movement. Hehe. (I'm in the latter category.)
