i prefer to rub someone else's feet
Yes! I rub my feet together and on the sheets. lol!! I thought I was weird or something but I guess other people do it too. I'm glad I'm not alone on this. Hugs!
To Tell the truth I do to. And somehow in the morning my legs and shaped as a 4. Idk why =)
Wow I really thought I was the only one besides my older sister that did this, I always rub my feet together or on the sheets, I've done this since I was about 5 or 6, mothers tend to rub the bottom of their baby's feet to help them off to sleep and from personal experience it does work, perhaps our mothers did this to us when we were infants and some how that comfort stuck with us
Yes. There are others out here like you! It's definitely a comfort thing. I rub myfeet together which sooths me and helps me to relax just a bit. Get a giggle: At the GYN office, I rub my feet in the stirrups to help sooth me because it is still somewhat of an uncomfortable feeling to me to be in such a position. LOL If I should be reading and become stressed from course overload (adult returning to college) I start automatically rubbing my feet together.
You r husband should enjoy that about you. It shows that you have a nice, easy way of destressing or calming yourself. It also shows a real together person on the inside!
So rub away!
I rub my toes together before I fall asleep. It's actually more like my toes rub together by themselves though - the more tired I am, the more my toes rub together. I can make it stop if I think about it but I don't "make it" start . It's been happening for as long as I can remember.
Yes, it's soothing. The feet are very sensitive with many nerve endings. The Chinese believe every organ of the body has nerve terminals in the souls of the feet. Also-- have you ever seen someone who is on their feet all day rub the underside arch of their foot on the top side of the opposite? It feels wonderful!
Absolutely! All the time - hah, nice to hear it from someone else.
Yes, I rub them on the sheets and the bed to help me relax. I also have to sleep with a certain blanket that no one else is allowed to touch!! Glad to know other people do the feet rubbing.
I lay on my tummy and tap my foot till I'm in slumberland! My hubby of 20 years is used to it! I think it has to do with the comfort we felt when we were rocked as babies. Or when mommies gently pat their babies backs or bottoms. A tired baby usually calms down to sleep.
