Don't get in bed until I'm sleepy.
Count backwards from 100 in my head, if I lose track start back at 100, if I actually get to zero I do it again in Spanish but usually I fall asleep.
If really wound up, put on relaxing ambient music and actually listen to it, do yin yoga poses for awhile then try again.
My computer goes into night mode a few hours before bed (reduces the blue and dims). Then I dim my light about an hour before.
Watching tv and fall asleep or download ASMR of your choice, I prefer taping nails, whispering or ears stuff, put the auto close timer at 30 minutes and sleep.
Drink sufficient alcohol, lay around in bed until I notice I fell asleep and dropped my phone. Then I can go to sleep.
Lying on my back.
Bed.
I focus on feeling my heartbeat. Puts me right to sleep.
