Benefits of Barefoot Shoes

In this topic, Posture Ellie delves into one of her favourite topics ... barefoot movement! When we talk about 'barefoot movement', we are talking about being unshod, as well as wearing 'barefoot shoes' which allow for the natural, unrestricted and unaltered movement of the human foot. Most modern shoes are narrow, cushioned, heeled (at least marginally) and with stiff soles ... and our bodies are suffering for it. The very thing that we are peddled and told that we 'need' (cushioned 'supportive' shoes), strip the muscular function away from our feet and therefore weaken them. Weak feet = pain elsewhere in the body. Once you go barefoot (safely and slowly), you'll never go back!My recommended barefoot brands - Vivo Barefoot - Use POSTUREELLIE20 for 20% off (non-sale) shoesWildsole Sandals - USE ELLIE for 10% off(If you want more barefoot shoe brand recommendations - check out "Anya's Reviews" and "Barefoot Brit")Toe Separators - Get ones like this that are the same width across each separator (and don't get narrower) - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sumiwish-Separators-Stretcher-Therapeutic-Fasciitis/dp/B09F8ZLPMW/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=2YALANW5RM9L3&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.zxgbMM2OUTxqIySgxJ_Fj32KB98do41NqmrrVCWJEDRqa9P78p8NQJ4Vu5-enCaqF-fdJaoIEa9FeqEcvgrNkRyAOEb3FY-dV7nDDRM1D7bw2BoDMcwRL6AKVIrAwEOzkuzkY9SjqDGmO_OObZY8OX3p1DLXy5xmqQvD6dHmDyau57YYimFNT_3owmiXfS9PN1auDCg9nGnuOiDakhsQu5e9emQPpPkUJN7jzHf8O_adeb8h8wUSuYUiTkAI7xWmwUvS1YaorEC7MOJLdTeyib0L78qIPC1iGwRS7NoG0hc.y13rxYn7RDb6_KTBupQWAP-esfm_pYN5DfSKkn0x2eI&dib_tag=se&keywords=silicone+toe+separators&qid=1757073483&sprefix=silicon+toe+separtor%2Caps%2C435&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&psc=1Recommended Reading -Exercised by Daniel LiebermannThe Story of the Human Body by Daniel LiebermannWhole Body Barefoot by Katy BowmanMove your DNA by Katy BowmanPrimate Change by Vybarr Cregan-ReidOther Info- Pre-order my book ‘Posture Power’ - https://watkinspublishinglinks.com/posture-power- Start your one month free trial of The Posture Squad - https://posture-ellie.com/the-posture-squadWebsite - posture-ellie.comYouTube & Socials - @postureellieCredits for Intro theme: Life is Good 2 by Beat Mekanik, Source: Free Music Archive, License Type: CC BY
