I got really good at thought stopping by reading Anne Rice vampire books and then replaying scenes in my head at bed time. This helped immensely when my stupid brain decided to go a trip down memory/resentful lane. I am also a die-hard Trekkie and will replay entire episodes in my head. (My God I just showed allll my nerd credentials, didn't I?) I am not allowed any educational or self help stuff an hour before bedtime.
Brain candy was the answer for me, lol.
