Insomnia is one condition that often is better treated with herbs than with drugs. Most herbs have far fewer side effects than sleeping tablets. They're effective for sleeplessness from a wide variety of causes. Their effects range from very mild relaxants to effective sleep aids. They can be taken internally or used topically as bath teas or essential oils. The sedative herbs i will list in order from strongest to mildest.
Valerian. This is the best-studied herbal sleep aid. Taken 30-45 mins before bedtime one 150-300 milligram capsule or 1/2 teaspoon of tincture in water.
California Poppy and corydalis. Take up to 4 cups of tea per day.
Lemon Balm. Take up to 2 cups of tea or one - two 300-400 milligram capsules.
I would try Valerian first. Its a very strong herb and can cause nightmares in some people but once you get your dosage right it would be my first pick of any sleeping aid out there on the market......
A natural aid is Passiflora.
I take it to help me sleep as I am an insomniac. The brand I use is called Potter's Nodoff (stupid name I agree) - it helps things a bit but I don't think there is a cure all.
You can get it as easy to swallow tablets or a tincture. There aren't any side effects either as it's totally natural. Your local health food stor will have it or another brand of the same stuff.
Hope that helps.

When I cannnot sleep I drink chamomile tea or warm milk. I have also heard that turkey and chicken have natural tranquilizers in them. So you can maybe have those for dinner. I also exercise in the day to help me fall right asleep at night. You can also try taking melatonin.
