warm milk and honey. it really works!

Answer 5

usually when my mind is thinking about what i need to do or what i would like to do before im trying to sleep i just tell myself that 'its 10pm (or whatever time) im in bed and there is nothing i can do about it now, so go to sleep!' if i dont listen the first time i repeat the thought and add that rest will better help me to make decisions and its time to sleep
