Things that helped me sleep better, and some of these ideas were echoed in the stories of other people who I've spoken to, in their own experiences:

Valerian root capsules to help relax

Avoiding carbs at dinner, (non-candida people may actually sleep better after a high-carb dinner, but some candida people get fermentation in the gut at around 2:00 in the morning from high-carb dinners, which disturbs sleep)

Making the room you sleep in be absolutely pitch black dark: no moonlight shining in the window, no little lights in the room from any clocks or appliances. I put aluminum foil on my window to block out the streetlight.

Going to bed at around the same time every evening: pick a time, and stick with it

Avoiding caffiene after lunchtime: it stays in your blood for hours

If you suddenly change your diet, or suddenly start taking a strong anti-candida product, the ensuing candida die-off can cause temporary high cortisol, making sleep more difficult. So, I try to make such changes a little more gradually.

Hope that helps!
