Use an app that plays noise to listen to, some have white noise but I like listening to rain, it is something that the brain can focus on but less distracting than other thoughts. I think that's how it is meant to work. Helps me sleep so much faster anyway.
Some people write down the thought or worry they have before sleeping but I've never tried that.

@Rilynn Yeah, I used to lay awake for over an hour every night but I set it to play for 45 minutes and I'm always asleep before it ends. The one I use is called relax melodies. The idea is it is low enough to just be background noise and it's consistent too so it's a continuous sound, if anything it covers up any other unexpected noises that would distract you while trying to sleep.
