insomnia protocol

I am actually looking for one. Is there a good method of consuming cannabis to treat insomnia? In what ways can cannabis be consumed for the treatment of insomnia? Not too much I know. A friend recently told me I might want to try taking a toke in the morning, I'm guessing not to get high but just to receive a medical dosage, if that is important. I'm guessing a few hits or so.

Any thoughts?

maybe hops might help. it does come from the same family as marijuana so maybe it might have a similar effect to help insomnia...
