Have sex (if possible) or have a couple of whiskeys or a joint.

PLay a round of operation metro that is enough to put anyone to sleep.
No one's suggested having a ****?
I think that suggestion may have been in the deleted post.
If I'm struggling to sleep, I'll just throw a TV show or film on on my laptop, something that I've seen many many times, so I don't actually focus on it. Usually fall asleep in no time, or make myself more tired than I want to be even if I'm not trying to sleep!

I have a problem with staying still and also struggle getting to sleep, I now have a routine of around 12-1:30 bed time weather i go to sleep straight away or lie awake for an hour depends, then im up at 7-8 depending on what time the kid wakes up!
I havent found anything to make me tired yet but a long warm bath sometimes helps.

I find sleep deprivation works pretty well for being able to get to sleep. Due to my complete lack of discipline when it comes to bedtime I rarely get in bed before midnight and get up for work at 6:30-7:00. I'm always so tired at night I go out like a light.

Breathe deeply and slow, like meditation. If you do it for a while you kind of forget your doing it and just end up really calm.

Lots of exercise doesn't always help, depends on the chemicals being released around your body at the time (like adrenaline).
For those saying, smoke this, or drink this - Not a good suggestion as you can become dependant.
Your best bet is having a warmish shower, dry off and get somewhere comfortable and if possible reasonably cool. Pick up a book ro read a couple of websites and just relax.

Have a cup of Valerian Plus before you go to bed, will def help you sleep.
