Hello Sir, Greetings from your Ayurveda Wellness Coach.

Generally Sleep issues may occur when you are not following proper food regimen and lifestyle issues.  If you are undergoing stress or anxiety, that may also cause some issues in sleeping.

So, by the combination of change in lifestyle and change in food habits, this can be corrected and you may consider having good and safe Ayurveda Medicines for your health issue.  For example we get Tagara Tablet which is very helpful for promoting good sleep.
There are several steps to be followed for good sleep.
1. Finish your dinner before 8.00 PM or earlier.
2.  Avoid all electronic gadgets at your bed room near your head region.
3.  Consume warm milk by adding 4 pepper grains (Crushed)  in it.

Further if you are having doubts, I suggest you to consult online.
