How does one stop thinking?

Some say that not thinking is a central important thing in Zen. Maybe even key.

So how does one stop thinking? I can think of 2 ways.

  1. Focus on something so intensely that you have no attention left over for thinking.

  2. Become very conscious of the act of thinking, so it becomes less of a habit and more of a choice, then choose to refrain from thinking.

That's all I've got. Comments?

Do you have any other ways to stop thinking?
