Try conscious breathing. Sit quietly and observe your breathing. Breathe slow and easy, naturally. If your mind wanders observe what you are thinking about, as from the outside, then come back to your breathing. There are also some good guided meditation/relaxation cds you could try.

Go to a quiet place and let your thoughts come and go. Don't try to control them. Then slowly try to concentrate ("meditate") on particular concepts like peace, love, happiness. Train your mind to concentrate on one thing at a time.

Just close your eyes and try to concentrate on the smooth, dark, velvet that you experience when your eyes are closed. If you want, you could chant something so that you draw your focus to the chant and away from any other extraneous thoughts.
Hope that helps.

Try "B" vitamin supplementation. If you are deficient, adding it will help a lot. Maybe low dose Lithium would help.

I was going to say warm milk.
Tea calms ppl down, but it has caffeine in it too.

Mediation would be the safest way.
