For the past couple months I've had success with this "one weird trick" to help get to sleep: I go through the alphabet and for every letter I think of 3 unrelated words that start with each letter. When I'm tired by my mind is running, this helps me slip into sleep.
My wife and daughter have also had success with it.
I also have had success with listening to audio books or podcasts, but don't like doing that if my wife is also trying to go to sleep. Despite that she can't really hear me over her Sleepbuds.
- after_care 5y agoAlong the same lines of the alphabet trick you can also count backwards from 100 to 0. I rarely make it through more than once. It’s a trick that keeps your mind from wondering, but isn’t stressful.

- ishjoh 5y agoI'm a loud snorer, I see the marketing for Sleepbuds says they help sleepers from being disturbed by snoring. Do you know if it effective for snoring?
- linsomniac 5y agoMy wife says I'm not a loud snorer. I'm our case, the Sleepbuds have been extremely effective. The first version had issues, but Bose stood entirely beyond them, and the v2 have been great. They are expensive, but an extremely good value.
