Plenty of exercise and eating lightly in the evening do a lot for me.

   if i can't get to sleep, i get myself off by doing a complicated multiplication (3-digi number by 3-digit is enough for me) in my head, and keep restarting if I get lost. Usually asleep before the answer.

   Another trick is to try staying awake, and wake myself if I notice I'm drifting - till I've gone. Sort of self-reverse psychology.


   One fresh suggestion, see a therapist. I believe some people may be sleepless because there are things baging around the ol' unconscious that dealing with. Tho' I did think the Napoleon idea was brilliant.


   What I do also these days is put on a tape of a comedy show I've heard a thousand times. Lightly entertaining with the right level of boredom built in.


   God luck,Kat
