Can Walking Barefoot Help Cure Ailments?

August 22, 2015 by Shellie Wilson 2 Comments

I have heard of this before but really thought it was more of a hippy, earth grounding, back to nature kind of thing. After reading this article by Dr Axe, it us slightly more believable. The best thing about this “Cure all” is it’s free. Yes no pills involved and no expensive treatments. Simply take your shoes off and walk around this fine earth.

As the Journal of Environmental and Public Health states:

It is an established, though not widely appreciated fact, that the Earth’s surface possesses a limitless and continuously renewed supply of free or mobile electrons. The Earth’s negative charges can create a stable internal bioelectrical environment for the normal functioning of all body systems which may be important for setting the biological clock, regulating circadian rhythms, and balancing cortisol levels.

Do you think it could help? Have you tried it?

    No, it will not help. Depending on where you are, it could even expose you to some new friends like histoplasmosis.

    ( The Journal of Environmental and Public Health is an open-access journal and the author pays a fee to have his/her research published. The publication has an impact factor of 1.993. By way of comparison, the top-ranked public health journal, the Lancet, has an impact factor of 10.042).

    Your initial assessment that this was hippy-dippyism is correct. Walking around barefoot in your yard on a nice day helps foster a feeling of contentment, but then so does knitting and eating chocolate.

Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets (For When You Want to Scream into a Pillow)

Free Printable Downloads for Women 40+ Navigating the Hormonal Rollercoaster

Let’s be real—there are days when being a woman over 40 feels like riding a hormone-fueled tilt-a-whirl without the safety bar. Welcome to perimenopause, my friends. If you’ve ever found yourself sweating while standing in front of the fridge, crying over a puppy food commercial, or forgetting why you walked into a room (again), you’re in good company.

That’s exactly why I created these Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets—printable pages made especially for those “I swear if someone breathes near me I’m going to scream” moments.

What Are Calm Down Sheets?

These aren’t your typical mandala coloring pages. Nope. These were lovingly illustrated with women in perimenopause and menopause in mind—think messy buns, mood swings, and a whole lot of caffeine. Each sheet includes relatable cartoons, cheeky quotes, and stress-relieving doodles that are way more satisfying to color than pretending you’re fine.

They’re perfect for:

Rage coloring during a hot flash

Cooling down after snapping at your partner for chewing too loudly

Unwinding with a glass of wine and a pack of colored pencils

Quiet moments when your brain fog lifts just enough to enjoy something creative

Why Coloring Helps During Perimenopause

There’s science behind this, promise. Coloring helps lower cortisol levels, focus your mind, and gently ease anxious thoughts. It’s like a mindfulness practice, but one that doesn’t require Lycra or a meditation app subscription. And let’s be honest—when the world feels a bit much, giving a snarky mug or frazzled cartoon woman a splash of lavender and hot pink is downright cathartic.
