Hi! One simple thing we can do to be able to sleep is doing some regular exercise. Go to bed at a regular time, so the body will get used to it. Don't keep a TV in your bedroom. Bedroom is just for sleeping. Also do some meditation before going to bed. Meditation need not be some heavy religious stuff. Simply relax. What I do is mentally count on the reverse starting from 1000. I would mentally count 1000 about 20 times using my ten fingers agakin mentally without moving the fnger, and then 999 about 20 times, etc., going on the reverse. Before I reach 980 or so I would be sleeping or close to it. But, still there are some days I cannot sleep till 3 AM. But, now a days that is very rare. Since I had problems with sleep apnea, I have stopepd taking any sleeping pills.
