What works for me when this happens is that first I will lay for about 15 in an uncomfortable position and then get in a comfortable position and generally I will fall asleep. If I don't I get up and read or watch TV on low volumn or go on the computer. Also I keep all lights to a minimum for at least an hour before trying to sleep. Another thing to try is to use red bulbs in your lamps and lighting. Another thing I do is get up the same time every morning no matter how much sleep I get and in a few nights of this I am ready for sleep.

Don't eat anything two hours before bedtime, keep away from caffeine, and when you go to bed make sure the room is quiet, that is no TV or anything else. Have breakfast each morning and take a multivitamin pill, drink lots of water during the day. Exercise regularly, have a healthy diet.

Exercising vigorously_during_the_day_often helps with sleep at night, and getting up early in the morning helps you as well. Sunshine early in the morning helps the brain make melatonin at night which helps you fall asleep and rest. Naps sabotage falling asleep at night as well as do caffeine and other stimulants.

find out whats keeping you up. for me it was just to leave a light on in the hall so i wouldn't keep jumping up every few minutes cause i thought i heard something or i saw a shadow. my boyfriend has to run a fan or the radio so the noise will lull him to sleep. read a book or do a crossword puzzle. don't drink caffiene before you go to bed and don't watch tv in the bedroom.

Get lazy in the bath tub, even if it's just to sit in the water, but careful not to doze in it!
Whenever you can, invest in a relaxation tape or cd; or just borrow from the library.
Sleep with a stuffed animal, even if you're grown. That would not make you juvenile.

don't take sleeping pills - it makes you sleep but the sleep does not rest you. try and drink a glass of wine in the evenings. always helps for me.
