This past summer one of the best times that I've had in my life
was walking around the park literally every day for hours with my friend and
During that time we were barefoot and shoeless and it was sunny
Warm all that so that's what I that's what I want to talk about in today's episode being barefoot and shoeless because
Walking around in the grass barefoot first of all is a completely different experience
than what most people are used to like walking around on concrete with shoes on that
Shape your feet into tiny little
worms
And so we we decided to toughen up our feet and we actually wanted to heal our feet because all our lives we were
using shoes that were basically forging our feet into tiny little
maggots like you you've seen it you probably have feet like that yourselves where
Your feet are like little tiny
herits
like your shoes basically
shrink your feet down and
form them into such a shape that they're
Unrecognizable
And
It's disgusting. It's embarrassing and it's not natural
So we decided to heal our feet and another thing is that shoes make your your feet weak
Like you should be happy you should have tough feet like the bottom of your feet should be full of callus
And it should be very tough
to the point where just the other day I stepped on a
a
sharp
Like my dad dropped a plate on the ground and I stepped on
one of the plate shards that he missed when he was cleaning that up and
It broke blood
But it didn't even hurt because it barely broke blood just barely because
There was probably like an I don't know how big a centimeter is but there was a big
big distance
in between where the blood was coming out and the
Like surface of my foot and that was all just callous
it was a cool sight to see because
I
I have very tough feet now because I spent all summer walking around shoeless
And another another benefit to that is the grounding aspect. I was at a peak
health
My health was at a peak during that summer because we were getting we were grounding all day long
because
Dude grounding is like the healing system. I don't know the science or anything about it
But all I know is that I was getting wet dreams
literally like every week
I think I think there was a time where I got
Back to back days where I had two wet dreams in a night
So I had two wet dreams in one night and then the next day I had two more wet dreams
which was insane
And they're like very consistently. I was getting wet dreams once a week
Which is basically when you come at night time when you're asleep
So it's not like you can't choose to do it. It's just involuntary
Which shows that you're I'm pretty sure it shows high testosterone and like high libido high good health
basically all that stuff and the thing is that I I've never masturbated in my life, so
It was probably like and I never watched porn
So that definitely helped so I didn't have stuff to heal from
But I was getting all that good health benefits from from grounding
and it's I'm dude. I'm
I need to stop saying dude. That's not good
but I am a
Super fan of grounding now to the point where I actually bought or I asked for for Christmas and got
earth runners, which are basically barefoot shoes that are like
just
I got the primal or like the extremely minimalistic one where it's basically like this tiny little
strip of
rubber
just a tiny little
Soul of rubber which is flat
And it's tiny so it's very thin and then there's like
Like this rope around it. So it's
I don't know you just got to look it up and then there's also
a copper
thing
connected to the shoe
so you like
you're able to
I don't know the science. I don't even know what I'm talking about. You're able to
Ground while wearing those shoes
So grounding actually was extremely beneficial for me and then
Another thing is the sun touching my skin
So good that sun is so valuable now that I'm in the dead of winter
January in Chicago
I haven't had sun in months because
There is no sun ever during the wintertime in Chicago
So I know how valuable the sun is it makes you look good and it makes you feel good
And it makes you healthy
I didn't wear sunscreen at all that summer and I didn't get burnt at all either because I didn't eat seed oils seed oils
destroy your skin
so don't eat seed oils and then
But I was I did get burnt when I went to the Dominican Republic
Because that was a very strong sun, but that's a different topic and and the thing is I got burnt barely
It didn't hurt. It just looked a little burnt and I
It healed pretty quickly. It healed overnight like the next morning. I was right back at it
and
So that's the shirt and then the shirtless aspect there's
a few benefits first of all the sun you don't get a
Grow you don't get a bad looking farmer's tan
You get a nice full tan except for your shorts
And then the second thing is confidence
You build your confidence because you're expanding your comfort zone
and walking around your town barefoot and shirtless
Is outside of a lot of people's comfort zones and it was outside of mine as well in the beginning of summer
until I did it literally all summer and
Then now I'm comfortable. I'm comfortably able to do it
So when the time comes
Make sure that you're going barefoot and shirtless all the time. Just walk around. I barely wore a shirt
like that entire summer even inside
Unless I was going to like a public grow like indoor public space like a grocery store or something like that
I wasn't I wasn't wearing anything
Just under or actually I stopped wearing underwear. All I was wearing was shorts. That's all I wore
