Practice going straight, then push the bars left then right, this will give you a good feel of the bike moving under you.
Yup, push left go left. Push right go right. Find a vacant industrial area or school parking lot after hours to practice.
I think the pic below shows how countersteering works. The rider is leaning right and pushing right so the front wheel is slightly to the left. To me it's a natural thing as it would be awkward to either push left or pull right while leaning to the right.
