As it is, greenery or nature is the most sought after for unwinding from the humdrum and stress of life. Even if you spend time in such surroundings, you will feel good immediately. But when you walk barefoot, it will be an added advantage for your health issues. We mostly walk around in shoes that are made of plastic or rubber. These prevent your feet from getting grounded.
