It's your left, not the left of the dude living in your attic peeping down at you.

Yes, but to know what is your left, one first needs to establish what is their forward. If you were previously on your front (which is itself not an uncommon sleeping position), "turn to face left" will put them lying on their right side.

This stuff really isn't rocket science. I'm genuinely surprised to be getting push back here. If the goal is to tell people to lay on their left side, that's what should be said. Not "facing left", which doesn't convey the same meaning.
