To shut your brain down to sleep you should start by getting into a bedtime routine which helps your brain know when it's time to fall asleep.
Start by going to bed and winding down at the same time each night.
About 30 minutes to an hour before bedtime shut off the TV, electronics etc and try reading a good book.
If you still can't get to sleep then try taking some melatonin supplements which is a hormone that your body needs to help your brain shut down for sleep.
In some cases you may need to take some sleeping pills as well.
