Here Is Why You Should Practice Walking Barefoot Outdoors

We are born without shoes, we play as a child without shoes, and whenever we get the opportunity to throw off our shoes and free our feet we do. But with so much of our time spent inside, it makes you wonder… when was the last time you walked barefoot outside?

Touching and interacting with the Earth is a part of being happy and healthy, it’s completely true. To walk barefoot on the Earth allows you to directly connect with the ground, it’s an action known literally as grounding.

Every human being is electrical, the human body uses voltage to send messages from one part of the body to the other and is made up of 60 percent water. And the Earth is a natural conductor of electricity. The match is simple. The Earth conducts electricity through a negative ionic charge, while your body produces and conducts positive electricity, that if left alone, can harm you. So by “grounding” yourself you balance out your electrical charge.
