Try to normalize your sleep patterns. If possible, avoid swing shift jobs and try to go to sleep and wake up at the same time each day. Our bodies need routines. Wear comfortable, loose nightclothes to bed. If you aren't managing your stress during the day, it will spill over to the night.
Chronic insomnia can sometimes be a symptom of a more serious sleep or mental health disorder.
