You must do the cardiovascular exercise daily for at least 30 minutes, such as walking, jogging, cycling or swimming. Try doing it in the morning, as endorphins cause the brain stimulation, if these exercises are done within 3 hours of sleep.

Restrict your bed-room activities

So better do all these activities outside your bedroom and leave them over there when you return to your bedroom. It will make you sleep profusely.
