Have you tried direct sunlight via sun rise and sunsets? With no sun glasses or sun block. A good way to reset your circadian rhythm.

I have, and it does indeed help. Activity level is a big part of it too. I have a desk job, but I find I sleep better when I've done work in the shop for 8 hours (naturally π).
Of late, I have found a small dose of melatonin has been *extremely* helpful. Don't know if it is because I have been going through some above average stress, or just getting older, but topping up the melatonin tank has been a recent godsend. I've slept the last three or four nights since I started it like a baby - and without some of the more pharmaceutical aides I have previously used.
Thatβs good to hear. Exercise, healthy diet, natural sunlight exposure, reduced indoor activity (hard, I know), and reduced stress can help too.
If that fails, 13 mile mountain hike s will do it every time. ππ€£ππ€£
