Try to drink nothing other than water after 6pm. Last thing you want is any caffeine in your system. Go for a walk a couple hours before going to bed, or do push ups, crunches, etc. If you can go to a gym, if not there are plenty of things you can do at home for physical exercise.


Also, try not to anything in your bedroom except sleep. If you have a TV, PS2, etc take it out or don't use it. I read an article once that will help a lot of people that have trouble sleeping. Your mind should only associate your room with sleep, not watching TV, or w/e. Helped me
