According to a TV show on Food Network. Milk and I think Turkey have something in them that make you tired. That is why everyone says to drink warm milk.
I would do something that takes intelligence. Such as solving a cross word puzzle, Sudoku, reading maybe. I have noticed that with me, things that take a lot of mental power make me more tired than things that take physical power.
I have gone out and piled wood for a few hours and felt like I could do it all day, but a week later, when I sat down to study, after a while, I was ready to fall over.

Insomnia (sleeplessness) is due to stress, dietary and medical
problems. By making small lifestyle changes like having a fixed
daily routine, relaxing and eating properly, insomnia can be
cured. I found the information at http://tinyurl.com/jfzpz useful
for getting sleep.

Don't use the computer an hour before bedtime

I just lay there until I go to sleep. But they say it's good if you get up and do something for a bit. Do some dishes or laundry or read a little and then try to sleep again.

I stare at my ceiling, looking and concentrating at my glow in the dark stars usually puts me to sleep, if not I write in my journal.

I try to do something productive... try to get some work done, or read. Just try to get it off your mind since there isn't much you can do about it. Then don't take a nap the next day so your tired the next night.

turn on the tv for awhile or read a little until you get sleepy feeling. Try taking a sleep aid- pref. herbal hot teas,and herbs for myself.
