Chamomile tea with 1.5 tbsp. honey and a bit of milk. It works, even for kids (honey is sleep inducing and it even has mother's 'warm milk' remedy.

2.5 mg Melatonin sublingual under your tougue 1/2 hour before going to bed. I use 'Source Naturals' brand. I purchase it at health food stores. This works best for me.

Chamomile tea steeped for 3 minutes with a bit of milk and 2 Tbsp natural honey, a hot shower to reduce your body's natural temperature as you lie down to rest and a good book as you lie down.

I guarantee this will help some if not cure your insomnia. Eliminate drinks and foods containing Splenda, Nutrisweet, Aspertame, and Sugar Alcohols! Your better off with sugar. Secondly, Grape juice and teas are better than sodas and coffee. Some Fruit juices and fruits have natural sugar sources. Substitue your prefered alcoholic beverage with red wine, and try to keep consumption to two glasses or less. No coffee after noon, switch to tea. Eliminate trans fats and pork. Diet and exercise improvements should be made even if small.

A good hot cup of chamomile tea (it is really mild) with 2 tablespoons of honey for sedative effects as well as flavor). p.s. - also fabulous for thinning nasal mucus running down the back of your throat. Drink the tea, take a shower or bath, relatively hot as your body temperature will drop and further allow your body to relax. If all fails, read.
