I repeated in my head "Next time I see my hands, I will be dreaming". I did this without much distraction for about 5 minutes, then I laid in bed and tried to fall asleep. After a while again I did the same as before, looking my hands over. Throughout the entire time of falling asleep I repeated the mantra in my head.
Eventually I forgot the mantra and fell asleep normally, and had a few dreams, not as vivid or as numerous as normal, but I'm not going to attribute it to the method just yet.
