A decent amount of physical activity during the day,, whether working on something or exercising, helps a lot for me. Dynamic activity during the day means more deep sleep at night. It doesn't so much make me tired, but it burns all of the stress-related cortisol or whatever out of my bloodstream. But different people have different physiologies. So, different things work for different people. I also drink red wine with dinner, and often take a Benadryl about 2 hours before I want to go to sleep. Works like a charm. I generally will sleep 6-7 hours without any interruption. Generally, have the option to nap if desired for an hour or so during the day. Most times, I don't feel like it, but sometimes, I do.
