    Try staying away from caffeine,caramel colored soda like coke and pepsi,exercise,chocolate at least 3 hours before bed.Go to bed and wake up the same time each day even if you got no sleep the night before.Dont nap for more than 20 minutes in the daytime and not after 3pm,as this interferes with nighttime sleep.Also dont twist and turn more than l5 minutes in the bed,if so get out of bed and do something boring like rading a book,if you find yourself nodding out immediately get up and go back into the bed.If you are taking and prescription meds alert your md as this may be a side effect and a dosage adjustment is all that may be needed.Try dep breathing exercise or soft mellow music before bed.Also the old cliche warm milk before bed is true.Milk when warmed contains tryotophan a natural sleep inducer.If doing this for at least 2-4 weeks does not help,perhaps a sleep evaluation is needed.For a list of them and further tips on insomnia go to slepnet.com click on disorders ,then insomnia.Good luck,
