I have compiled few easy and quick pranayama techniques which will help in making you sleep like a baby! So here you go!

Pranayama Techniques:

Bhramari :
Sit on Padmasana or Siddhasana. Close your both ear flaps with your index fingers. Breathe in slow and deep abdominally through both nostrils making a sound of Bhramara, the honey bee, and breathe out through both nostrils slowly. You can start your practice with 11 or 21 rounds and later on increase the practice according to your comfort level. Even though Bhramari is one of the best pranayamas for insomnia but it should never be practiced in lying position otherwise, it may affect your ear drums and hearing capacity.

● Ujjayi :
Sit in Padmasana or Siddhasana. Close the mouth. Breathe in gradually through both the nostrils in a smooth; uniform way till the breath fills the space from the throat to the heart.

When you inhale, imagine that you are breathing through a hole in the neck and contract your glottis.  Amid inward breath, a particular sound of like baby snoring or cat purring is delivered because of the contraction of glottis muscles. The sound created amid inward breath ought to be a gentle and uniform pitch. It should be persistent moreover.

Even though Ujjayi is a tranquilizing pranayama. It creates the heat in the body because of the oxidation process. It evacuates every one of the shades of malice emerging in the body and the Dhatus and cures Jalodara (dropsy of the midsection or ascites).

This is the only pranayamas which can be practiced in any position sitting, lying or standing position. It expels mucus in the throat; Asthma, utilization and a wide range of respiratory illnesses are cured. All infections that emerge from the insufficient inward breath of oxygen, and ailments of the heart are cured. All works are proficient by Ujjayi Pranayama.

Abdominal breathing in savasana before going to sleep:
This is done by lying down in savasana and slowly and gradually breathing through the nose so that the stomach moves out,tighten your stomach muscles, giving them a chance to fall internally as you breathe out through pressed together lips.

Practicing these three pranayama techniques regularly will normalize the sleep pattern very soon and the night sleep will automatically get very Good.
