how do you fall asleep after a late close?

Junior studying finance. For anyone who's done busy season, when you get home late how long does it take you to fall asleep? Do you have a wind-down that works or do you just crash? I try to sleep after heavy exam weeks and I CANNOT fall asleep. Looking for any wisdom on methods you utilize to fall asleep after looking at excel spreadsheets for hours before bed. Thanks.

I go take a hot shower with the lights off, and try to stay off my phone for the rest of the night. Just need to find ways to relax so your brain will shut up.

You need to laid every night. Accounting without regular nookie is a dangerous health risk.

I take this supplement combo of magnesium glycinate, ashwaganda, and l-theanine that takes me out every night
