Encased by slippers, sneakers, and shoes all day, our poor feet are suffering from the mistreatment of modernity. For twelve, sixteen, eighteen hours, they're confined to ill-fitting shoes from which they want nothing better than to be set free. Sadly, they're prohibited, for almost the entirety of their life, from bending, bearing, feeling, and moving as the Author of nature intended.
In this episode, we'll go through a few simple exercises that can help restore the strength, flexibility, and sensitivity of the feet. Repeat this every day, and, before you know it, you'll have greatly improved your strength, balance, gracefulness, and the intimacy with which you connect to the earth.
