I watch tv, eat a snack and then try to fall asleep. Sometimes I have trouble falling asleep though so I take melatonin.

I turn on one of those soft noise machines to help me go and stay to sleep except in the summertime when I use a fan. Not only does the fan keep me cool, the constant low hum it makes helps me sleep too.

I just watch TV and fall asleep and that is my routine.

I either read till my eyes get tired, or watch a bit of tv right before bed

I light my favorite incense, drink a cup of camomile tea and do my own version of yoga. I noticed that stretching before bed gives me better sleep.

I do to eat a light snack,sometimes. A pleasant way is I drink night time tea, Tylenol PMs, Valerian, Melatonin and hot herbal baths for the alleviation of steeping difficulties.

It's rare I have a hard time falling asleep.  When I do it's because I'm thinking about some new technique I'm trying to put together. We've been walking at night...I get home a sweaty mess.  So I take a shower... and let my body cool down with my laptop open just clicking around till cooled.  Then I hit the sac.  Out in seconds.

It depends how my days was.....I open the window for the breeze, turn on the fan to blow the fresh air around, and usually pray.

I watch tv.  Then, I pray before going to sleep.  I also sleep with a fan on in the summer and a noise machine at all other times of the year.

I am off of the computer by 7 p.m.

I then read from 8:30 p.m. to 11 p.m.

Usually I fall to sleep quickly and rise early around 5:30 or 6 a.m.

I don't have a general routine as my body will tell me when I need to rest since I'm up early to go to work.  I do need to get new pillow though.

I was drinking  camomile tea in the evening.  I have given almond milk a try,  it seems to work at least as well and a bit more suitable given the heat
