A few gentle stretches to help loosen your muscles, then a good book, some soft music, and a cup of tea about an hour before you go to bed.
Good luck!

try taking melatonin
"Melatonin is the all-natural nightcap. It's secreted by the pineal gland, a pea-size structure at the center of the brain, as our eyes register the fall of darkness.
"At night melatonin is produced to help our bodies regulate our sleep-wake cycles. The amount of it produced by our body seems to lessen as we get older. Scientists believe this may be why young people have less problem sleeping than older people.
"Studies suggest that... supplements can hasten sleep and ease jet lag, without the hazards or side effects of prescription sleeping pills."
It may have many other uses and has been reported to make people feel better, strengthen the immune system, and reduce free radicals in the body. Current research is underway to determine it's effect as an anti-oxidant, immno-modulator in cancer, delayed sleep-phase disorders, and jet lag. Tests are still under way so there is much to still be learned about it and its effects on the human body. Travelers and people suffering from mild sleep disorders.

Benadryl or Tylenol PM might help for the days when your head NEEDS to hit the pillow in a relatively short pd of time.
If you want to try natural alternatives, chamomile and valerian tea can help. Taking melanin and then going out in the sun for a little can help regulate your circadian (24 hour) rhythms.

Someone else asked a question about sleep a little while ago. I saw an answer that said that MELATONIN is good. It is found naturally in the body, but you can buy the pills in a health food store or pharmacy. I am going to try it becuase I have sleep troubles.

Try turning off the tv an hour before you want to go to bed. Stay out of your bed unless you are sleeping. and meditate to calm yourself down before going to bed.
