I can't sleep and came across this. Please try it.

So, lift your right foot up while sitting/lying down and make clockwise circles.

At the same time draw the number 6 in the air with your right hand.

Your foot has changed direction automatically.

Reminds me of the stomach rubbing, head patting. Can never do that one either.

Mine changed automatically when I was doing it at a decent speed. If I slow down and concentrate I can manage to keep going in opposite directions!

Assuming you mean shut eye...

Step 1: remove electronic devices/get off MN

Step 2: shut eyes...

(Well, you did ask... 😁😇😴)

Mine did!
Now, splay your toes. Did your fingers splay too? It's a common complementary reaction, apparently.

Oh my word! Yes, I've tried it a few times now, and it changes every time! That's wild!

I couldn’t draw the 6!

My fingers didn’t splay when I splayed my toes though.

I'm left handed so automatically drew the 6 with my left hand and it worked fine. When I used my right hand there was some serious conflict going on, hand and brain fighting each other Grin

Depends where you start your 6
