Something I do to help deal with insomnia is to have a specific pattern of getting ready for bed and preparing myself. I start dimming my lights about 30 minutes before bedtime. I sip on a cup of some warm liquid. Bathroom routine. I do a puzzle to relax me. Then get into bed! I find the routine really puts my head in the mindset that "it's bedtime now, it's sleep time." It doesn't always work, but having that routine has helped a lot.

I also never ever sit on my bed with my computer or school work. In my head I need to make that distinction that my bed is just for sleep and relaxation.

I often find that listening to soothing audiobooks helps a lot. Another good trick is to recount a soothing book, film or story you know really well in your head, trying to remember every little detail in your head.
Putting on dim lights and letting your room go dark as the sun goes down is also immensely helpful, as are hot beverages and hot-water bottles (I hope that's the right expression :P ), because your body needs to keep a warm temperature while sleeping and if you induce it you should be able to go to sleep faster.
Last but not least, replacing technology with reading in the evening is always good, and when you find yourself unable to sleep or waking up every few minutes, it's helpful to just get up and do something soothing.

I use mindfulness, relaxing baths, counting my breathing either 1-2-1-2 or count until I fall asleep. Other time I literally repeat, can't change the past can't predict the future, focus on the present, over and over until I doze off. Often getting to sleep is less of an issue for me then waking and not able to get back to sleep. I also suffer dreams, nightmares, night terrors, sleep eating have done for years nearly every night. But they are less severe when I am making a effort to deal with issues during the day. I find because I can remember 90% of my dreams I'm able to know I'm not dealing with things
