Answer 1

No caffenine after 4pm, try reading a book to make you drowsy, or listen to soft comforting music before you go to bed.

Answer 2

No caffeine within 6-8 hours of bed, no alcohol, warm bath, and try to relax.  If you can't sleep because your mind won't shut off, try keeping a notepad on you nightstand, and write down the things you are thinking about and plan to deal with them the next day.  

Answer 3

If you can drink milk, drink some sometimes before bed because milk's known to contain certain substances that help chemically induce sleep in some way.

Reading a book before going to sleep usually works wonders. I suppose it was because it's a good exercise for your brain, and as you sleep, what you read would be processed among the other things. I would avoid watching TV before sleep because the waves from the TV stimulates your brain and it decreases chances of getting a good night rest.

Personally, it helps. I hope it helps you too.

Answer 4

Try meditation.  I had issues sleeping when I was pregnant and meditation really helped.  Research different methods online and see which one might fit you.  Otherwise there is also sleepytime tea that generally works too.

Answer 5

aparently the trick is to try and stay awake.

like you did when you were a kid to try and stay awake for santa, you got to sleep pretty quick right? lols. maybe thats just me..

other ways is to listen to slow, calming music before/during being in bed looking at no bright screens like an hour before going to sleep and drinking warm milk, no alcohol.

Answer 6
