Earplugs, cold room, thick blanked and a pillow under my knees/between my legs depending on wether I'm on my back or side. If on top of all this I don't fall asleep/wake up in the middle of the night anxious about unfinished tasks that would be great.

There is a good fix for the tasks thing. Keep a notepad near your bed. As you get into bed, anything on your todo list you are worried about gets written on the notepad. Get in the habit of looking at the pad every morning. Then once you write it down, you should be able to let it go. And if you wake up because you remember something, just grab the notepad and scribble it down (doesn't need to be elaborate, just a word or two to trigger your memory in the morning.)
