Start a routine, typically an hour before bed time. First turn off all electronics that aren't needed, no tv, no cellphone (unless you need to put an alarm), and turn off your computer. Then do something that relaxes you, maybe meditation or reading a book. After all that is done, I recommend eating a small snack and drinking a glass of water. You'll sleep like an angel.
Try reading a book, doing some yoga, or listening to relaxing music. Turn off your TV as it stimulates you brain instead of helping you slow down. If you can, leave you bedroom window slightly open to get some fresh air as you sleep. Also, keep lights such as you alarm clock away from eye sight.
You could always read a book or try to watch a show, or some youtube videos even. That's what works for me! :)
Try creating a routine, same time, create a warm cosy place. Also music and some drinks can help, like warm milk and saint john wart tea
