It's said that if monkeys hack long enough on a typewriter, than they will inexorably end up writing something that makes sense.
Let's see if this is also true for scientists...

Mind-surfing

I have just developed a new method to stop insomnia, or at least to stop boredom during sleepless nights (or public transport...). It's mind surfing.
Place yourself in your mind on a surfboard, and position yourself on the surfboard in some attractive place (say the top of the Eiffel Tower). Then start surfing (e.g; down the slope of the tower). Use all attacking thoughts (about unpaid bills, reports to finish, things to repair) as waves that propulse you into another direction. Doesn't necessarily make you fall asleep, but at least it's good fun!
