Turn off all of the screens you have around you normally and read for an hour to ease your mind into a peacefulness, or do something that brings you peace life easy yoga or taking a long soak in a bath. As much as possible, make relaxation your theme at the end of the night.

Sleepy Food - Start incorporating foods heavy with melatonin, magnesium, and tryptophan. Eating a combination of these foods will surely bring you some sweet dreams.
