For example, we brush our teeth every night, then go to bed with the intention to sleep. How does our brain not connect brush teeth -> go to bed -> close eyes with the intention of sleeping?
I’ve been struggling to fall asleep for almost a week now, and it takes me a good hour or so to actually fall asleep.
Is it impossible for our brain to pavlov itself, or is this just another question that I came up with while struggling to fall asleep?

You can definitely Pavlov yourself.
Most likely Pavlov even Pavloved himself. His research, simply put, stated his dogs would anticipate being given food after hearing a bell. This after providing food multiple times after ringing that bell.
One might argue that if Pavlov was out and about and hearing a bell ring his immediate thought would be about feeding his dogs.
When it comes to falling asleep, there are so many factors that make falling asleep easy or hard, it’s simply more than “but I brushed my teeth like I always do.”
