Did you know that walking barefoot is good for your feet? Studies have shown that walking without shoes, or going barefoot, can improve your balance and posture as well as strengthen your feet.
Users of VIVOSOUL know that learning to walk with our toes spread and our heels raised is the second step of a Yoga practice called “Pratyahara” – which in English means “inner senses”. Once we were able to relax and be still, we learned how to unclog our senses by moving them from the external world into our bodies.

Why is walking barefoot so good for your feet?
There are many reasons why going barefoot is good for your feet. These reasons are related to the structure of the foot, which has evolved to have a series of complex systems within it. These systems work together to help you to walk, run, jump and land. For example, the skin and nerves on the bottom of the foot are connected to your brain and spinal cord. These systems help you to feel the ground and know where your foot is. Going barefoot allows you to use these systems in your foot. Wearing shoes can sometimes cover or trap your foot and prevent you from using these systems. Another reason that going barefoot is good for your feet is that it allows you to stand and walk on a variety of different surfaces. This can strengthen muscles and joints that you do not use when you walk on a regular surface such as a sidewalk.

BEND — better equilibrio-ception (sense of balance)
BEND — better equilibrio-ception (sense of balance) When you walk barefoot, you will likely bend more at the ankle, knee and hip to compensate for the uneven terrain. This bending at the joints helps you to stay balanced. It is important to maintain this bending in order to be able to continue to walk. If you walk on a regular surface and do not bend, you may put too much pressure on your joints, causing problems.
