Ever notice how much easier it is to cement bad habits versus good ones? Vices are like mosquitoes that slip into the bedroom at night. You’re never quite sure how they got in, it’s hard as hell to kill them, and they suck the lifeblood out of you if you don’t address them.
. I believe every word.... Grounding... That word sure has a lot of places in our lives doesn't it ? Well the weather is getting warm and I'm preparing my garden so look out fresh grass and soft dirt... I just might be getting grounded.
Thank you my friend for keeping this at the top of the queue.....and kudos to you for re-engaging. Every time that we do a bit of a 'walk/hike' i fight the urge to take off my boots and hang for a bit...or carry on with boots in hand. Maybe i'll stop fighting the urge.
A common attribute of people who regularly go barefoot is their joy of life (joie de vivre?) I used to ‘walk naked’ but haven’t for way too long so thank you so much for the reminder! I can’t think of anyone who complains of it having tried it. A lovely post. Thanks so much.
Grateful to you for reading and commenting, Beth (and welcome!). For the record, I'm stealing the term "walk naked!" 😅 While I'm trying to stop giving myself more things that I ought to do, I'd like to protect more pockets of time in my day for bare feet on warm earth again. Now that our mosquitoes aren't quite so abundant, I might be able to get back out there without needing a transfusion after!
I intend to try this more myself, if the ants allow. ;)
Oh...you've got fire ants, don't you? :wince: Maybe leather-soled shoes? https://www.softstarshoes.com/adult-roo-moccasin-smooth.html
Good idea...I'll keep my eyes peeled for antless soil, as well. :)
Wow... Thank you my official earth podiatrist.

If you try it, I think you'll enjoy it. Keep me posted! :)

Can't hurt to try. Keep me posted! :D
