Take care not to eat anything too late in the evening. Your body working to digest a meal can keep you awake. Of course, watch how late your intake includes any caffeine, coffee, chocolate, tobacco, sugar, vitamin C, et al. When I have trouble sleeping, I like to drink a cup of Celestial Seasonings Sleepy Time (caffeine-free) tea while making an effort to mentally relax.
My husband uses Tylenol PM. He says it works like a charm and doesn't leave him feeling weird in the morning; just rested.
