Go for a 30 minute walk Take a bath or shower, get ready for bed Don't watch tv No computer or mobile phone checking Make yourself a night time drink, even if it's just hot water Read a chapter of a book, a real book not electronic Get into bed and close your eyes, if you are not asleep within 30 minutes, read more of the book, if this doesn't work get up and sit somewhere quitely you can try meditation, soothing music via head phones, after 20 minutes try reading and bed again. Lavender and/or chamomile scent infusers in your room help. [/QUOTE]
