What is an
Earthing shoe? I didn't know either so don't feel silly or dumb. Earthing, means walking barefoot on the natural surfaces of the Earth; the grass, sand, dirt and the like. This
blog post from the folks at
Juil explored the benefits of walking on the "earth". It suggests that as electrical beings, our body responds positively to walking barefoot. It can help with healthier circadian rhythms as well as decrease inflammation among other things. Sounds pretty legit to me. People walked around barefoot long before shoes were a thing (
I am so happy shoes are a thing). So what the people at
Juil did, was pretty much a great idea. They combined one of my favorite things (SHOES) with the effects of walking barefoot.
