One of my first tips for falling asleep is making sure that you get enough exercise in the day. I have a job where I work primarily from behind a desk and sometimes neglect to do the exercise that I should do. The good and bad thing about it is that I can almost always tell when this happens because I have insomnia that will only go away once I start working out regularly again. Most of the time, this is the issue, and after a few workouts, it goes away. This is not always the case, however, and sometimes I have to resort to other means.
I have also had problems with leaving work at work, or fretting about all that I have to do the next day at work and having insomnia then. One of the tips for falling asleep when I can tell that this is the case is making sure that I leave work at work. There is nothing that can be done about work until you are actually at work, and all of the worrying and lack of sleep in the world is not going to make anything better. As a matter of fact, it will likely make things worse, because you will probably not have the energy to meet your problems at work effectively.
One of my other good tips for falling asleep that I often recommend is reading. This is kind of a tough one, because if you start to read a really good book, it might be hard to put down. If you read a boring book, however, you might lose interest quickly and find your mind starting to wonder again. The key is to find a book that will hold your interest, but at the same time allow you to become tired and be ready to fall asleep. That is a way that has always helped me, and I would recommend it to anyone.
These are some tips for falling asleep that I have found useful and try to relate to others who are having the same problem. I am not saying they will work for everyone, but they sure have worked for me!
