Try to go to bed at the same time every night. Every night means even on weekends. This allows your body to get used to the routine and will make falling asleep more easily. Do some work out, perhaps an aerobic exercise. This will lessen your sleepiness during daytime and will make your body more relaxed when its time to go to bed. Don't do it several hours prior to you bedtime, though; you might end up being too revved up. Have adjustments in your diet, cut out on caffeinated food and beverages, especially during afternoon. Avoid eating spicy food at night. Eat light during dinner. If you're a smoker, quit smoking. Smokers are more likely to have sleep issues and are at higher risk of suffering from sleep apnea.
