One way is to trick your mind. Yes, it is slightly weird, but it works:

-no screens at least one hour before bed
-if needed, use stuffed animal for comfort
-Play claiming music, ie. lullabies or rainfall sounds
- close your eyes and just let your thoughts wander
- have a set bedtime each night
Doing this should help you sleep since it works well for me, and I'm a really light sleeper, and almost anything can wake me up

I have insomnia girly.. i take gummies, read before i go to bed, and i make sure my room is FREEZING. Some methods aree...

The military method
Relax your entire face, including the muscles inside your mouth.
Drop your shoulders to release the tension, and let your hands drop to the side of your body.
Exhale, relaxing your chest.
Relax your legs, thighs, and calves.
Clear your mind for 10 seconds by imagining a relaxing scene.
If this doesn’t work, try saying “don’t think” repeatedly for 10 seconds.
Within 10 seconds, you should fall asleep!

4-7-8 breathing:
Let your lips part slightly and make a whooshing sound as you exhale through your mouth.
Close your lips and inhale silently through your nose. Count to 4 in your head.
Hold your breath for 7 seconds. This is the most important part of the practice.
Exhale (with a whoosh sound) for 8 seconds.

Tell yourself to stay awake.

Visualize a calm place.
