   Perhaps you could try to deprive yourself of sleep by sleeping less at   
   night?

   Binaural beats are in my experience ok tools for relaxation and   
   self-hypnosis, but not tremendously effective, and not required to   
   achieve good results. Though, since there are free programs available   
   for them, you could try them. I don't think there would be any ill effects.
