    In addition, the classic version where you picture sheep jumping over a fence causes your eyes to trace an arch shape, which can tire out your eye muscles and make your eyelids feel heavy. I never really got the "counting sheep" thing until I watched an ASMR video recently where the creator traced little arch shapes with her finger to simulate the sheep jumping over a fence and it made my eyelids droop almost immediately.
