Opening the window for fresh air is probably the best thing for me. Sometimes I can't fall asleep at all until I open the window.
Putting on some audiobook/podcast that isn't too funny/interesting helps with not thought/worry spiraling. The easiest is to listen to something I already read before.
cool/fresh air really helps me too actually
I think its mostly temperature, since its too cold to have my windows open in the winter and I don't have much trouble then
One of the things that triggers sleep is falling body temperature. Not specifically "being cold," it's the decrease that does it, which is why a hot shower to push your core temp up makes you sleepy afterward as you cool down.
yeah fresh air helps me sometimes
