8.No smartphone near you.
2.Play light music or bhajans.
Stimulate the environment to let positive thoughts breed-
Think about how sleep is important for you to win tomorrow, to face life well tomorrow, to stay healthy in life.
Thoughts of you fighting out the toughest of circumstances and steering through life like a real hero.
Make a plan or plan relevant decisions for tomorrow to handle life. “I will do this, face that, get over that tomorrow and then go to sleep. I am capable enough to handle it. I will show that I am capable enough to handle this responsibility handed to me by life.” And feel free, that's it, that's the best you can do, and nothing has to be done.

Mind and body are two parallel sides of the track that run your life; even if one side is broken or tired, the other may refuse to cooperate.

Even if your body is tired after a long trek on the hills, and every bit of it is aching and asking for rest, you still can't sleep because your mind is detached from your body and doesn't think so.
6.Slow down, no fast or swift movements.
Once you succeed in triggering a thought, explore it, use your mind's energy to make it look more real, build stories, and channel your thoughts into it till you fall asleep.
5.Smile.
Strong positive memories.

4.Lay your body facing the roof.
Fascinating dreams and situations. Like visiting your favourite place, creating a story where you are the hero, the saviour. Avoid lust stories at it will force you to masturbate.
Talk to yourself to calm yourself down. “I am alone, I am on my own, I am my support, I am my elder brother, I have to take my care, I need nobody and nothing to live, I must respect myself, I may be a loser for the world but I don't care.”
10.Even if you can't fall asleep, your task is to lie down peacefully, letting your body.
Meditate on the thought of temporariness. Nothing is permanent; the universe and my life are constantly changing; no expectations work here. Life is as random as a dice roll or Flipkart of a coin. Nothing that crosses my path stays or will stay forever. I will be there for me till this body takes its last breath.
Because of hyperactivity in the mind, the mind refuses to give up on active thoughts and is constantly sending signals of activity to the body.

If you really can’t sleep, sit in the meditative posture with your legs folded. Straighten your back, look in the front, shut your eyes, smile, slow down, take slow and deep breaths and focus on the centre of your forehead, the third eye. Nothing matters anymore.
Appreciating yourself for all the deeds and efforts of today. You deserve sleep, you have earned this phase of rest. You did great in life; one can never be perfect, and expecting perfection is stupid.
The best we can do is to change our thoughts and steer our minds to a more comfortable space.

Feel in the company of your beloved God, dedicate your every bit to them, show immense faith and love in them, and show trust in their love for you and your powers. They can turn your life upside down in the blink of an eye. Only they are yours in this world full of strangers.
If there will be a tomorrow, there will be a tomorrow again after that, doesn't matter how tough it is. The flow of life won't stop.
7.Deep slow breathing.
