    Why I go barefoot? Because I don't like to wear shoes. Life is better - healthier, happier and more comfortable in bare feet ... a great happiness. I hate shoes since at 3 years old, in 1962. Now I'm a barefoot hiker.
    In fact ... "Going barefoot is the gentlest way of walking and can symbolise a way of living - being authentic, vulnerable, sensitive to our surroundings. It’s the feeling of enjoying warm sand beneath our toes, or carefully making our way over sharp rocks in the darkness. It’s a way of living that has the lightest impact, removing the barrier between us and nature"
    - Adele Coombs, “Barefoot Dreaming” ^___^
    Mick Dodge is my friend.

    Why I go barefoot ? Because I'm human. And because I don't like to walk in these torture instruments called "shoes".
    I started this "hobby" since 3 years old (in 1962), in my village. And I am very health and happy.
    Barefoot is the best ! Thank you my good Nature mother ^_^

    I have been walking barefoot since I was 13 or 14. I would also wear moccasins without rubber soles. After watching this I noticed that I step on the front of my feet. When I have to wear shoes my feet are unhappy and my whole body. Barefoot is better.

    These people are so ridiculous ! The " life force of the earth " ! lol When the majority of people went barefoot , they picked up all kinds of bad stuff from compromised skin . From a 20th medical professional, wear your foot wear and keep your head up .

    Take them sandals off your feet this place in which you stand is holy ground. If you go into a city and they reject you brush off the dirt and leave it there.

    Those leather things that Mick is wearing on his legs look quite practical against nettles and thorns, also against coldness. Are they selfmade?

    • @jacquiechandler2031
      @jacquiechandler2031 5 лет назад

      You can have both. Mick has shoes - soft soles. The idea is to reconnect your sensory experience of touching the earth - moccasins are great as are other shoes with flexible soles so you can feel and when on cement - nothing like a thick soled shoes - as there is nothing to feel and its hard. enjoy

    • @jacquiechandler2031
      @jacquiechandler2031 5 лет назад

      Mick has a variety of footwear depending on the terrain. Some terrains make bare-footing the best option. Be flexible, creative and the main point is to just be open to touching the land so it can touch you back - however it is best for you. Good Way
