Attention Training

Attention training is a structured exercise in which you deliberately move attention between different sounds, then divide it between several at once — practising control of attention itself rather than changing the content of thought.

How it works

This one is unusual in that it does not touch what you are thinking about at all.

It feels mechanical while you do it, which is expected — the benefit shows up later, in being able to move attention off something.
