    Hi Bruce,

    As an regular insomniac I sympathise here.

    I don't really know much about the physiology of this, but I had the vague
    idea that the warm drink, especially warm milk, released some kind of
    chemicals that help induce sleep. Perhaps it impacts on melatonin
    production?

    Engaging in some kind of task, like reading, can break the cycle, but like
    you say- why is this?

    Sorry, questions not answers...

    Vincent
