Your feet deserve your utmost attention.
It is with our feet that we make contact with the ground, exchanging energy with the earth like the roots of a tree. To understand the part of your feet play, stand up and spend a few minutes sensing them with your shoes off. Check how your body weight is distributed - towards the balls, the heels or the sides?
Do you feel relaxed, comfortable and balanced with well curved arches at the instep supporting your weight without strain.
Are you feeling tensed and your feet cramped with a rigid instep and toes curled round?
In order for the energy to flow through your body, good contact with the ground is important. Ungrounded people tend to be unsure of their footing and their muscles are rigid. Grounded people are well-balanced and aligned and they tend to be open and responsive.
