The day was cooler, with a threat of rain, but I took a break and drove 30minutes south to Cleary Lake to go on a barefoot hike with three other barefooters.
The soil was nice and damp and cool everywhere and I marveled anew at the many varied sensations we can feel through our foot soles.
The new green that is appearing for spring is at that very tender stage. And so refreshing to see.
I read long ago that it is good for mental well-being to look far away and at the same time to look at green vegetation. It was tangible how this played on my mind yesterday.
On Facebook I described the day as a beautiful, informal,social distancing, soul cleansing, brain resetting barefoot hike, ending just before the rain arrived!
