Lay down. Put your hands at your sides, and curl up underneath your covers if you want. Your choice. No lights, though. Put some instrumental music on. I have a suggestion, but you probably saw that coming. Listen to what you want, so long as it will distract the outside world from you, but will not distract you from your inner thoughts. Be passive towards your inner thoughts. Let them arise. Acknowledge them. Let them pass on.
Concentrate at the very top of your head. The North Pole of You. Imagine a singular point that slowly descends down and around your skull, reaching the ends of your hair. Feel a swirling energy that circles your head until it starts to fill your neck, coming from the top down. Let it expand over your shoulders, around to your back, and down your arms. Feel it reach the tips of your fingers. Feel it running down your chest, your midsection, your hips.
Stay focused on that energy. Follow it down your legs, continuing to fill you from the top down. Feel it on the bones of your shin, on your calves, as it reaches your ankles. Let it wrap around your heel, underneath your foot. Feel the energy come to a point at the ends of your toes. Feel the energy, still and total. Feel the heaviness of being still and total, and the lightness of being still and total.
Breathe in. Lift up a finger, a hand. Breathe out. Turn your head to one side, lift up another hand. Place it on your waist. Breathe in, breathe out. Move your legs, releasing the energy. Return to life as you knew it nine minutes ago.
