Can't sleep? Blame your genes

Do you struggle with insomnia? I do on a fairly regular basis, as do almost all of the women in my family. That's why I wasn't surprised to read this article. Recent research suggests that insomnia may run in families.
The question that's left unanswered is why. Do parents hand bad sleep habits on to their children, raising future insomniacs, or is there a genetic component that disrupts sleep? There's no clear answer yet, but study authors believe that it might be a little bit of both.
What finally worked for me was downloading a meditation mp3. If I lie in bed more than 30 minutes without dozing, I put it on and I'm usually out like a light. I know the answer isn't so simple for many people who struggle with sleep issues, however. What do you do to make sure you get a good night's sleep?
