Today, it is very difficult to imagine a life without shoes, slippers and sandals. Even though in early days of human history, people did not use any footwear. With onset of civilization, things changed. Wearing footwear first became important from functional point of view as it can protect the feet from cuts, bruises, heat, cold, etc. It also prevents exposure of the feet to harmful creatures lying around us, be it plants, animals or parasites. Now, it is compulsory to wear shoes when outdoors as barefoot gives a negative impression. It is being considered as a sign of poverty.

                            

今天,我们很难想像没有鞋的生活,包括拖鞋和凉拖。而在人类历史的早期,人们脚上却根本什么也不穿。随着文明的开始,事情发生了改变。穿鞋开始变得重要首先是鉴于其功能性:鞋能保护我们的脚,以防划伤、撞伤、烫伤、冻伤等等。同时,穿上鞋我们的脚就不会和地上危险的生物直接接触,包括植物、动物还有寄生虫。现在,光脚出门给人们留下一种不好的印象,而穿鞋则变成了一种必须。光脚成为了贫困的象征。

Health Benefits of Walking Barefoot

                       

光脚走路对健康的益处

The biggest disadvantage of wearing footwear is that it restricts the natural mobility of the feet and reduces its flexibility. This give rise to a number of foot problems and other health conditions. Barefoot walking can control common foot problems to a great extent. Besides, it has a number of other health benefits as well.

穿鞋的最大坏处就是它会限制脚的的自然活动,并且降低脚的灵活性。于是就会新增许多脚部问题,以及其他健康状况。光脚走路能很大程度上控制一般的脚部问题。除此之外,它还有许多其他的健康益处。

Strengthens Muscles

                             

强健肌肉

Barefoot walking enhances strength of the group muscles in lower part of the body particularly that of the feet, legs and hips. The small muscles located in these areas are not stretched properly when you are wearing shoes. Walking barefoot releases the tension from these muscles caused by the footwear and make them more strong and agile. This not just improves the coordination between the different set of muscles but also prevent injuries in them during movements like walking or running.

光脚走路能够强健我们身体下部的肌群,尤其是脚部、腿部还有臀部。当我们穿着鞋的时候,这些区域的小块肌肉得不到有效的伸展。光着脚走路能够缓解由于穿鞋而给这些肌肉带来的紧绷状态,并使它们变得更加强壮和灵活。这样不仅改善了不同肌肉之间的协调运作,同时还能防止肌肉在行走或者跑步等运动中受伤。

Relieves Joint Problems

                           

缓解关节问题

Barefoot walking is good for various body joints. When you wear shoes that are high heeled or thick soled, then the natural alignment of the joints badly get affected. Barefoot walking ensures proper alignment of the knee joint, hip joint and lower back. It gives you a comfortable posture and you get relief from joint problems.

光脚走路对身体的各种关节都有好处。当我们脚穿高跟鞋或厚底鞋时,关节的自然调整严重受到影响。光脚走路能够保证我们的膝关节、髋关节和下背部得到有效的调节。它能给我们带来舒适感,并且缓解关节问题。

Improves Posture

                 

校正姿势

It has a positive effect on the overall posture of the body. Regular wearing of shoes often leads to poorly developed foot muscles. This has an adverse impact on the entire posture and can cause back problems too. Barefoot walking tone up these muscles and make them flexible. Thus they can adjust well and physical structure can be maintained. If you are nursing a back injury, then barefoot walking will help you in faster recovery from such injuries.

光脚走路对我们整个身体姿态都有积极的作用。经常穿鞋通常会导致足部肌肉不能良好的发育。而这会影响人的整体姿势,并引起背部问题。光脚走路能使这些肌肉更健康的发育,使它们更加灵活。这样它们就能自如伸展,而人的身体结构也能得到良好的保持。如果你正处于背部损伤的恢复期,那么光脚走路会帮助你尽早痊愈。

Cures Varicose Veins

                  

治疗静脉曲张

Barefoot walking is highly beneficial for those who are suffering from varicose veins. In this condition, veins in the legs and feet of the patient fail to return blood back to the heart. Walking barefoot helps in free movement of the feet and toes which is not possible within the confinement of the shoes. As a result, blood circulation in legs improve. This in turn facilitates veins and muscles of the legs to move blood to the heart more efficiently.

光脚走路对于那些饱受静脉曲张之苦的人们来说可谓是非常有益。在这种情况下,病人腿部和脚部的静脉不能把血液输送回心脏。光着脚走路能使脚部以及脚趾自由的运动,而有了鞋的束缚,则不可能实现。于是,腿部的血液循环得到改善。进而,这也使得腿部的血管和肌肉能够更有效的把血液输送回心脏。

Prevents Ingrown Toenails

                               

防止脚趾甲向内生长

Those who tend to suffer from ingrown toenails quite frequently should go for barefoot walking more often. This will minimize the chances of recurrence of ingrown toenails. This is because when we wear shoes, certain amount of pressure is exerted on the toes due to which the toenails fail to grow normally. Thus the problems like ingrown toenail arises. Ideally, it is recommended that one should stay barefoot for at least 10 hours in a day. If it is not possible for you, try and make sure that you opt for barefoot walking at least when you are at home.

那些为脚趾甲向内长而苦恼的人们更应该经常光着脚走路。这会降低脚趾甲再向内生长的概率。这是因为当我们穿着鞋的时候,一定量的压力就落在了脚趾上,致使脚趾甲不能正常生长。所以,像脚趾甲向内生长这种问题就会增多。理想情况下,专家建议人们一天光脚至少十个小时以上。如果你没办法做到的话,要尽力保证至少在家的时候,你能选择光着脚走路。

Prevents Fungal Growth

             

抑制真菌滋生

During summers, when you spend long hours wearing shoes, then the dark humid condition that prevails inside the shoes promote growth of fungus which then attacks the feet and toenails. This kind of fungal infection on feet and toenail can be prevented if you practice barefoot walking and give the scope to the feet to breath normally.

炎炎夏日,如果你长时间穿着鞋,那么鞋里那种又黑又潮的环境就会刺激真菌的增长,进而损害脚部和脚趾甲的健康。如果你练习光着脚走路,并且使你的脚能得到正常呼吸的机会,那么这种脚部及脚趾甲的真菌感染就可以得到抑制。

Reduces the Risk of Foot Deformities in Children

                    

降低儿童脚部畸形的风险

Barefoot walking is not just good for adults but even children can yield its benefits in the long run. If babies and small children are allowed to walk barefoot on a regular basis, then it ensures proper straightening of their toes. Thus the chances of developing foot deformities such as flat feet in future becomes quite less. Moreover, it helps them to develop stronger feet arches and improves their feet agility.

光脚走路不仅仅对成年人有利,而且从长远角度来看,对孩子也是益处多多。如果婴儿和儿童能够定期光着脚走路,那么这就可以保证他们的脚趾正常竖直生长。所以,将来他们患脚部畸形,例如扁平足的概率就大大减小。此外,光脚走路还有助于足弓发育得更加强壮,并且提高脚的灵活性。

Now, we can conclude that the comfort that you get in barefoot walking cannot be obtained by wearing any pair of shoes or any other footwear no matter how well fitted they are. Just step out into the grass in your garden in a summer morning and walk for half an hour or so. This will cool down your feet and it feels great! This way you can also establish a connection with mother nature which is quite relaxing.

                                    

现在,我们可以得出:光脚走路所带来的舒适感是任何一双鞋都无法替代的,不论这双鞋有多么的合脚。在夏日的清晨,赤着脚在花园里走上半个小时,你的脚会很清凉,那感觉棒极了!同时,你还可以享受与自然共处的时光,彻底放松自己。
