Try googling "sleep hygiene". Sleep hygiene is all about having healthy sleeping habits, such as no screens two hours before bed, sleeping and waking up at the same times every day, turning off or covering all the lights in the room (even the tiny red switch ones) etc.

Melatonin is an excellent natural hormone in pill form that you can buy from any supermarket/drugstore. Melatonin is the hormone your body produces in your sleep, so when you take a pill, it makes your body think that it's bed time. But because this isn't a "knockout drug" or an actual "sleeping pill", you need to be in bed, eyes closed, lights off, or however it is when you usually sleep. Otherwise it won't work if you're up and about. Melatonin takes ~30mins to kick in.

To get better sleep, I turn off all lights, make sure my bedroom is at a comfortable temperature, and stay away from my phone or computer. Studies show that people who use their phone before bed have a harder time falling asleep and their quality of sleep isn't as good compared to those who don't use phones before sleeping.

Do breathing exercising as you lay down. Breathe in while counting to six in real time, hold your breath for six seconds, then breathe out for six seconds. Take two to three normal breaths and repeat.
