While lying in bed, Ms Kessler recommends taking a few deep breaths and then visualising a house that you are familiar with, but is not your own.
She said: ‘I use my grandmother’s old house. You visualise yourself slowly walking up to the house, noticing all the details about the outside, going up to the door and opening the door.
‘[Then] walking in, seeing the layout, and then slowly going through each room and noticing things in as much detail as possible.
‘Make your way through every room, seeing the art, the furniture, the layout.
‘There is something about this that distracts your thinking, busy mind enough to let you fall into sleep.’
Ms Kessler, who has been working in the field for five years, says the practice is so effective that it doesn’t take long to drift off.
She added: ‘I’ve literally never made it upstairs at her house.’
The hack could be welcomed news to the over 70 million Americans who struggle to sleep – according to the NIH.
Viewers eager to put it to the test commented on the clip and gave it over 150,000 likes.

One person commented: ‘The problem is I would get distracted and be redesigning the whole house and not sleep at all.’
Another person reported having insomnia at 2am, trying the method, and it working successfully with them not making it past the kitchen.
Someone else said: ‘I do this! But with going through a recipe.’
‘I do this with my favorite college apartment!’ another fan wrote.
Cierra Bunk said: ‘I do this too and it works!’
Another fan commented: ‘I saw this the other day and literally fell asleep within 1 minute and I couldn’t remember how I fell asleep and I’ve literally been looking for this video again just so I can do it again.’
Tia added: ‘This works for me. It does help to focus on the room and not the memories of things that happened in the room.’
