I had a few hours of laying wide awake last night, too, SadHub, and what sleep I did achieve was of the pharmaceutical variety, unfortunately.
Not being able to sleep when you are tired and most need it is so incredibly frustrating. When I first started meditating a long, long time ago, it was because of insomnia, and being able to slowly gain control of the constant thought storm did help me a lot. I won't say I've got it under control right now, as I clearly do not (!!!), but know that it really can help with the thoughts with practice.
I'll be relearning how to do it right along with you!
Wishing you a restful night's sleep.
