Have a look at the so termed, ‘4-7-8’ technique.
It’s a simple timed breathing exercise which serves to relax oneself and prepare the mind and body for a peaceful trip to the land of nod (hopefully!)
Good luck  |

"I wish I knew. I've kind of given up.
Me too, I got up and put the kettle on. Is it too early to start the house work?
As long as it’s not hoovering - you’ll wake the neighbours  "
Haha! Be more worried about waking the children, my neighbors wouldn't care as long as I done theirs aswell  |

"Put ur phone down an hour before bed. Read, shower before bed or sex works for me.... "
Putting your phone down is a good idea, the light from the screen tricks your brain into thinking its daytime, that's why a lot of devices and some websites have a night mode. |

This is a really good one and there are a few others.
Progressive muscle relaxation is brilliant too and there are some great free guided ones on YouTube. |

"I’m currently considering a mallet to the back of the head. Or maybe someone could smother me with their boobs into I fall asleep? "
Maybe try the calm sleep app first, its a little less drastic. |
