(advice for falling asleep if you are not tired coming from someone who worked rotating shifts for a decade)
like this is not a joke but nothing helps me fall asleep faster than not moving as soon as i lie down.
"oh i can't fall asleep, i rotate onto my other side" no!
"oh i know turning on my belly might help" no!
"oh i know…" just stop it.
stay put, try to calm your thoughts but do - not - move - any - limps - at - all!
no little arm movement, no turning around and very soon that little tingly feel will start to appear letting you know that you'll soon be fast asleep.
