Our connection to the earth.
Our grounding.
Our support.
Our source of moving about in this life.
The feet and ankles contain:
26 bones
33 joints
Over 100 muscles, ligaments and tendons.
Most peoples feet spend a lot time encased in shoes. Most shoes are not foot shaped and our feet pay the price by being squeezed into an unnatural shape while in the shoes. This can lead to aches and pains in the feet.
How often do you walk barefoot?
Do you ever walk barefoot outside? - in the garden for instance. Walking on grass and earth has a very grounding and calming effect on us.
Barefoot allows our feet to spread and to move more efficiently. This can relieve a multitude of daily aches and pains from the feet. And remember we have reflexology points in the feet so walking barefoot can have a positive effect on the systems of the whole body too.
When I first started to go barefoot more often, I noticed that my shoe size actually went up a size.
I now try to only by feet shape shoes there are several companies that make these. Vivo-barefoot are my personal favourite.
Give your feet some love.
Give yourself a foot rub. Get some massage oil or even some hand, foot or body lotion and just rub all over feet including your toes, spread the toes rub the top and bottom of your feet, pay attention to any achy bits. Maybe even give your feet a soak in warm water first.
LOVE YOUR FEET 👣
