All the most effective stuff you can do to get better sleep is done ahead of time (like daily exercise, not spending time in bed when not sleeping, keeping a sleep schedule, avoiding caffeine/alcohol etc), so if I get to that point there isn’t that much to be done. Getting up and doing something nonstimulating other than lying in bed for ten minutes can help a little bit sometimes. If there’s something in my sleep environment that is abnormal and it’s possible to correct it that will help. Lowering the temperature can help.
Fully agree, that part helped the most with improving falling asleep time and sleep quality.
More melatonin and breathing exercises i referenced in other comment are for those abnormal, one off occasions and usually the cause can be pointed back to some daily activity.
Same, 1,9mg of melatonin, but if any of the preparation during the day isn’t on point. That melatonin does absolutely nothing. With the preparations It’s providing a slight push to speed up falling asleep.

Yeah, tbh I also take .5mg melatonin before bed regularly and add a valerian root tablet on top of that occasionally
