Back to EpisodesThe Right Way to Start Wearing Barefoot Shoes (Without Hurting Yourself)
Description
Thinking about switching to barefoot or minimalist shoes?
This clip from our chat with @bprimal_footwear breaks down how to transition safely — and why it’s not just about the shoes.
You’ll learn:
– Why most people are disconnected from their feet
– How your nervous system relies on foot input
– 3 simple foot exercises to build strength
– Why toe mobility is key for posture and pain
– Tips for finding the right transitional shoes
– How to listen to your feet and build gradually
👣 Your feet have a quarter of a million nerves in them — they literally tell your body how to move. If your shoes (or lack of strength) are blocking that feedback, you’ll feel it everywhere: hips, knees, posture, balance.
