Struggling To Sleep? These Shoes Use Weird Science to Help
This Weird Shoe Trick Might Help You Sleep Like a Baby
I’ve always loved the feeling of walking barefoot on the beach or in the grass. How about you?
There’s something so freeing and relaxing about feeling the sand and soil under my feet.
Do you remember going barefoot as a child?
As a child, I lived for those carefree summer days when I could kick off my shoes and let my bare feet connect with the lush grass, warm sand, or even the hot sidewalk.
The neighborhood was my playground, and there was nothing I relished more than the freedom of wandering barefoot, discovering new textures underfoot.
The silky grass tickling my soles made me giggle. 😂
Rough sidewalks challenged my feet to be tough while still sensing every crack and pebble. And the beach — ah, the beach! — I would dig my toes deep into the sand, loving how it molded around each little piggy with a satisfying squeak and squish.
