This is what helps me.

I decide on a particular person with whom I have had a heartwarming interaction or a particular activity that I find calming and peaceful.

And I focus on that person or activity, imagining what a future conversation would be like, or recalling memories from the past, and use those thoughts to carry me into sleep.

Same in my recliner chair. I’ll wake up and do some chores like in the kitchen and when I’m finished I don’t usually go right back to sleep. I will make chamomile tea and drink it, take some melatonin and magnesium and if that fails take CBD oil
