There are many ways these days to get a better sleep. Turning off all distractions like tv, computers, phones, tablets. Drinking herbal teas. Getting enough vitamin D. Using melatonin, if you do use it you should consult a doctor first.

If you wish to achieve better sleep then simple things like exercising throughout the day and avoiding eating and hour before you go to sleep can really help.

Do some research into what is called "sleep hygiene" - habits and practices that encourage high quality, restful nighttime sleep. Some examples of good sleep hygiene include: establishing a regular bedtime routine; sleeping in a cool, dark place; using your bed for sleep and sleep only; keeping a consistent sleep-wake schedule; and avoiding light-emitting electronics for a few hours before going to bed.

lay on your back in your bed and don't move a single muscle for 15 minutes. if you can fool your mind into believing that the muscles in your body have stopped moving it will automatically put you into sleep. besides you can try reading, meditation, breathing exercises, contemplation, drinking milk, doing sports, getting yourself warm etc.

Chamomile tea is the best! You can find it in any grocery store. There are also tea blends you can buy that are made specifically for sleep. (I recommend Yogi Tea) If you like to make sure everything is organic, go to your local co-op or health foods store and buy rooibos tea, chamomile, lavender, and a tiny bit of valerian root. That blend will send you to sleep in minutes!

Do medidation. There is a great app called "calm", which introduces you into this topic. medidation doesnt have to be spiritual. Furthermore you can drink a cup of tea before going to sleep or open all windows in your bedroom. Put away mobile devices in the evening, so you can relax better :)

1. Put away your mobile phone an hour before going to bed. 2. Do not read too much 3. Set your mind and body that the bed is a place to sleep and not a place to do things you should be doing when you are awake. Like watching TV while lying down.

Drinking relaxing tea before bed. Sleeping with ear plugs. Sleeping with an eye mask. Sleeping in a dark room and a quiet place. Disengaging from electronics at least an hour before bed. Setting up an alarm one hour before bed to remind yourself to get ready for bed!

That’s a good question because many of us experience bad sleeps. Number one suggestion is to not look at screens a couple of hours before bed - phone/ computer/ TV - read or do something quiet and relaxed. Go to bed at the same time each night and get up at the same time every morning. If you can’t sleep get out of bed and read or relax until you want to try again. Get a good solid session of exercise - fast walking etc is great - physically get tired. Write down everything that’s going through your mind in a notebook before bed. Some herbal drinks are good plus less carbs and more protein to keep yourself from feeling hungry.

Better sleep can be hard. I would say put on some calming music and dream. Close your eyes and think of something that makes you happy. If you wake up in the middle of the night, get something to eat, use the bathroom. Then go straight to bed.
