I sometimes cannot sleep because I can't stop thinking about things. For me the cure is reading fiction. I can't recommend it enough. It totally clears my mind of everything that excites/agitates/stresses. Non fiction won't do and can actually make it worse. Fiction!

I always need a good book around for getting to sleep. It makes me nervous if I don't have one.

Of course one of the sleep hygiene rules is to not do anything other than sleep in bed, but I think there has to be an exception for reading.
