Ehh...that doesn't necessarily pan out either. If I have no stimulation at all, my mind can swirl to 10001 different thoughts. What often works for me, personally, is to put on a YouTube video on my phone to help fall asleep. The trick is you want to find a long, relatively boring and not engaging one to sort of lull you to sleep. Make the mistake of putting on something too interesting and you're fucked.
That's me, anyway. I don't always need thought distractions to sleep but often I do.
I find podcasts are even better, you can listen to them with your eyes closed.
