Top Ten Tips For Beating Insomnia\n\n1. If you have an alarm clock with a large bright display, place it out of sight. The last thing you need when trying to sleep is a constant reminder of how late it is - stressing over being awake will keep you awake!\n\n2. Eliminate as much light as possible, including light from alarm clocks and vcr panels. \n\n3. If your sleep is interrupted by outside sounds, try masking them with the sound of an air fan, a radio tuned to static or by using a white noise machine. \n\n4. Keep a moderate ambient temperature - if it's too hot or cold your body won't want to relax\n\n5. Avoid stimulants such as caffeine, nicotine or alcohol. It's best to abstain from these altogether but if you can't then try to avoid them before late afternoon/ early evening. \n\n6. Even if you're tired during the day don't take naps as this will it make it harder for you to get to sleep at night.\n\n7. Don't exercise too close to bedtime (at least 3 hours) as your body needs time to wind down and will keep your mind awake. \n\n8. Adopt a 'going to bed' routine, a ritual that signals your brain that the day is ending and it's time to shut down. Don't do any work or any puzzle-solving during this ritual.\n\n9. Only use your bed for sleep or sex. Don't fill your bedroom with computers, tvs or anything not to do with restful activities. \n\n10. If you haven't dropped off to sleep within half an hour, don't lay there stressing over it. Get up and do something relaxing until you feel sleepy.

I asked a similar question and here was the answer I found most helpful. I give the credit to nightevisions. Hope it helps you too.\n\nIt helps to have a relaxing routine before bed. Do something calming. Whatever that might be for you... a warm bath, a hot cup of tea, reading a book... \n\nIf you lie there awake when you go to bed, occupy your mind in a non distressing way. Recite a childhood fairytale such as the 3 Bears... and when your mind starts to wander to everyday worries, pull it firmly back to the story... you'll fall asleep before you get past the porridge!
