I know I always joke with people about "more body building" being the answer, but for some people with sleep problems it really is. Doing some heavy circuit weight training (or cardio if you don't want to gain too much mass) about five or six hours before you'd normally sleep really helps a lot of people fall to sleep faster and sleep deeper.
It needs to be vigorous though, walking or what have you won't cut it. When you're done, you need to be sweating, hard. If you ever give it a shot though, let me know how it goes. Through experience, education, and my circle of lifters I've heard a lot of good results.
