Take Off Your Shoes To Heal Faster?

Can you heal wounds and injuries faster just by taking off your shoes and stepping outside? Can you improve your mental health by simply taking a walk in nature? Well today we’re going to cover both of these topics as well as how you can decrease inflammation, get better sleep, help your body to heal faster, improve mental health, and much more on today's episode of the Elemental Evan podcast.

On this podcast Evan breaks down health topics from a simplified and holistic approach, so that everyone can have access to this health knowledge along with actionable steps to apply this knowledge to their life. Today's episode will largely be based on how our connection to nature can provide full body healing, and how we live in a world that has a large disconnect to nature.

heal wounds and injuries

faster just by taking off your

2

shoes and stepping outside.

3

Can you improve your mental health

by simply taking a walk in nature?

4

Well today, we're going to cover

both of these topics as well as

5

how you can decrease inflammation.

6

Get better, sleep, help

your body to heal faster.

7

And improve mental health and

much more on today's episode

8

of the elemental Eben podcast.

9

This is your host, Evan Roberts.

10

And on this podcast, I break down

health topics from a simplified and

11

holistic approach so that everyone can

have access to this health knowledge.

12

Along with actionable steps to

apply this knowledge to your life.

13

On today's episode, we are

obviously going to be covering some

14

pretty interesting topics here.

15

Um, as I just previously mentioned, Uh,

but before we really get into all of that,

16

I wanted to take a little moment to paint

a bit of a picture here for all of you.

17

Um, and take us a little bit back

into the past so that we can get

18

a better understanding of some

technological advancements as well

19

as our adaption of our biology.

20

So.

21

Forgive me.

22

I made some very quick Google

searches here on dates.

23

So if I am off, I truly apologize for it.

24

Maybe I'm offer by a couple of years.

25

Um, but nonetheless, you guys

will get the picture here.

26

So first off homo-sapiens approximately

have been on the earth since 190,000 BCE.

27

I'm sure that can be up for debate,

but let's just roll with that for now.

28

And in terms of some of the technological

advancements that have taken place

29

here recently, we have in 1882, Edison

electric begin, uh, begins to provide

30

electricity to parts of Manhattan.

31

And in 1925, about half of the homes in

the U S had electricity running to them.

32

So basically about a hundred

years ago, only half of the U S

33

actually had electricity, which

is really wild to think about.

34

Uh, the radio was invented

35

Air conditioning 1902.

36

And apparently the very first

rudimentary steams, uh, steam

37

machine was built in 1698.

38

Um, with much of the other inventions

of the steam engine coming after that.

39

So very simply put about a hundred

or let's even say 200 years ago.

40

A lot of the major technology

and technological advancements

41

that we are using to this day.

42

We're not invented.

43

So if we were to go back 200 or even

just a hundred years ago, life would have

44

looked very, very differently, which I'm

sure many of you already understand that.

45

Um, and the reason I'm kind of painting

this picture has a lot to do with

46

our time that we spend in doors.

47

Right?

48

Because a lot of these technological

advancements are obviously

49

advancements that we use for our

entertainment, for our leisure.

50

Um, you know, it's really kind of just

a luxury and a lot of ways, um, in no

51

way am I saying electricity is a luxury?

52

I think it's, uh, definitely something

that we can all benefit from.

53

And it's something we definitely need.

54

I love electricity.

55

I love the use of it.

56

Uh, but nonetheless of course, when we

have, you know, the radio being invented,

57

then TVs and then obviously smartphones

and, uh, you know, Netflix and movies

58

and all these different kinds of things.

59

It's very easy for us to really

abuse a lot of these entertainment.

60

Mint type technologies or maybe

even for our jobs, a lot of them

61

rely heavily on these technological

advancements, which once again,

62

in no way am I against technology?

63

I love it.

64

I benefit from it.

65

I use it.

66

But there is a point in which

it can be definitely overused.

67

So there was a study

68

I believe it was conducted by the EPA.

69

And it found that on average, we

spend about 87% of our time indoors

70

with an additional 6% of time.

71

In a vehicle.

72

Which is obviously a

massive amount of time.

73

Now, this is going to vary, obviously,

depending on communities and, you know,

74

specific people, some people will have.

75

You know, jobs that require them

to be outside, which maybe doesn't

76

always sound like a benefit,

but trust me, being outside does

77

have some massive benefits to it.

78

But overall, a massive portion

of the population spends a

79

great deal of their time inside.

80

Now why.

81

Am I even bringing this up?

82

Why is this an issue?

83

Like what's, what's the, what's the

reason we should even care about this?

84

Well, first starters.

85

When we're inside too much.

86

And using a lot of these devices

and entertainments, uh, Pretty much.

87

You know, like for a majority

of our day, I mean, especially

88

like TV and don't get me wrong.

89

I am guilty of this as well, but you

know, watching shows up until essentially

90

like the moment we fall asleep.

91

Using artificial lighting to allow us

to be more productive and energetic

92

in the later hours of the evening.

93

Uh, these are all things that might

seem enjoyable in the short term, but

94

they can have some very serious, long

lasting health effects like overuse, uh,

95

over using electricity for lighting or

for entertainment purposes late in the

96

evening can lead to, uh, you know, messing

up your sleep, your circadian rhythm.

97

It can lead to you not

getting proper sleep.

98

It can lead to insomnia, um, as well.

99

It can also lead to a certain like,

Mental health issues, especially

100

if you're heavily using a lot

of the social media platforms.

101

Um, it can also lead to, you know,

us not being physical enough and

102

using our bodies and essentially.

103

Starting to pack on a little extra

weight and just not really being in

104

the ideal form of physical health

that we would like to be in as well.

105

So there's a lot of reasons why we need

to get outside, but one of the really

106

big reasons we need to get outside.

107

Uh, that I think can be a

benefit of air for everyone.

108

Is.

109

For the act of what's known as grounding.

110

So I'm going to cover two major

things here, and this is the first

111

one grounding, grounding or earthing.

112

I've heard people mention

or refer to it as both ways.

113

But nonetheless grounding

is a very simple practice.

114

It's literally bringing your

skin in contact with the earth.

115

So probably going to be your feet.

116

And just standing in literally

a patch of grass or dirt wood.

117

Essentially be you grounding

and yes, I know for many people,

118

this might sound a little bit.

119

Woo.

120

But trust me, this is not a woo woo thing.

121

There are a ton of benefits and

there are legit studies being done.

122

All the time on this topic and

yes, there's definitely room

123

for more studies to be done.

124

Uh, but from what we're already

seeing, it's showing a lot of promise.

125

For example, grounding has shown

to, uh, improve sleep, normalize

126

the day night cortisol rhythm,

which once again is essentially

127

just going to help with your sleep.

128

Uh, reduce pain, reduce stress.

129

Uh, it's going to shift the autonomic

nervous system from sympathetic

130

towards parasympathetic activation,

which once again is essentially

131

just a form of de-stressing.

132

It also puts your body into

a state where you're more.

133

Uh, better at digesting your food

and it's more of a restful state.

134

It's also been shown to increase heart

rate variability speed, wound healing.

135

And reduce blood viscosity.

136

So all of these things from literally

putting your barefoot on some soil.

137

It's insane.

138

The amount of benefits that we can

receive from something so simple.

139

Now, the way this is working, and I'm

just going to keep this very basic.

140

This is something I would

just read on a website.

141

Uh, your body can absorb free

electrons from the earth, which

142

can have an anti-inflammatory.

143

Uh, effect on the body and they can

essentially act as antioxidants because

144

throughout the day, you kind of build

up a charge and it's good for us to

145

release that charge and to receive these

free electrons from the earth, which

146

naturally has these free electrons.

147

But when we wear our shoes,

which have rubber soles on them,

148

They do not conduct electricity.

149

They do not allow us to

receive this benefit.

150

And unfortunately, a lot of us live

in, you know, apartments, two story

151

buildings or higher, and in essentially

living spaces that don't allow us to.

152

Commonly have this interaction

with our bare feet and some soil.

153

Now, if you're lucky enough to

have a backyard or hopefully even

154

just a big swath of land with some

beautiful trees and stuff on it,

155

then of course, you're going to

have very easy access to grounding.

156

But for many, many people who

live in big cities, this can

157

actually be more of a task.

158

And it is for others.

159

Uh, so I understand this might not be

something that most of us are doing,

160

but it's a very simple practice.

161

It's very easy to do.

162

It's free for everyone.

163

Everyone can obviously go walk

outside and reap these benefits.

164

And on top of that, they have even

made little devices where you can

165

strap them onto you or their pads.

166

Like you can rest your feet on them,

or there's even pads that you can put

167

in your bed that are grounding pads.

168

And the way they work is

you simply plug them into an

169

outlet that has a ground on it.

170

And you're going to receive the

grounding benefits, which is a

171

really awesome way of doing it.

172

Um, personally, I like going to the

source, like literally just going

173

outside, it's free for everyone.

174

And it's where, you know, literally

when you're plugging in the grounding

175

connector, it's the same thing.

176

Right.

177

But you're just literally

going to the source.

178

So I prefer to actually go outside.

179

Um, but of course with modern jobs

and, um, you know, our inability

180

to actually get outside very often.

181

Or maybe you live in an area that is

just really, really cold right now.

182

And it's not ideal for you to go

outside and do some grounding.

183

Then of course, using one of these

pads can be super, super beneficial.

184

And in fact, in the studies that I

was looking at for grounding, which.

185

I have this one linked in the description.

186

So I highly recommend that everyone go

look at this because there's some really

187

cool photo examples in here of people

who had wounds and they used grounding

188

therapy to help heal these wounds.

189

Uh, there's one specifically, it's

the very first one that pops up

190

of an 84 year old diabetic woman.

191

Who had an eight month

old wound on her ankle.

192

So she had this literally open

wound on her ankle for eight months

193

so she had obtained this wound

from apparently wearing a boot

194

that was probably too tight on her

ankle and through too much rubbing

195

and friction ended up causing

this open wound on her ankle.

196

So she went ahead and went

through some various treatments

197

at a specialized wound center.

198

But she did not have any

success at this wound center.

199

Now, remember this is an

eight month old wound, right?

200

She has had zero luck with

going the traditional route.

201

So she decides to go ahead and

try some grounding exposure

202

treatments for 30 minutes a day.

203

And literally within the very first week,

you can see a dramatic improvement in the

204

healing of this wound, as well as with a

massive pain reduction for her as well.

205

She said that she stopped limping.

206

She pretty much all of.

207

Her pain was gone at this point,

which is literally just after one

208

week of these 30 minute treatments.

209

Now they were applying these

grounding pads on either side of

210

the wound for the healing purposes

and the grounding purposes.

211

So they were using these grounding pads

as opposed to actually going out and

212

just literally standing on the earth.

213

Uh, but nonetheless, it seems that they're

rounding pads are very similar to the

214

ones that you can purchase online for, you

know, sleeping on and, um, putting your

215

feet on while you're working at your desk.

216

So once again, still just using

grounding here and massive, massive,

217

massive benefits in her wound healing.

218

And by the second week of using the

same grounding treatment, The wound

219

is practically completely healed

up and literally given another,

220

you know, another week or two.

221

I think that it would have been

completely healed, especially if it just

222

stayed at the rate that it was already

going, it was insane how quickly this

223

wound had healed, especially given the

fact that it was an eight month old

224

wound, which is totally crazy to me.

225

Um, yeah, I was not expecting

to see these photos in there.

226

I thought it was just going to be a boring

article, but no, it was super, super cool

227

with these really interesting photos.

228

There's another one of, uh, a

person who was on a bicycle accident

229

and it was a very fresh wound and

they just kind of show the rapid.

230

Um, Healing of it with the use

of these, uh, the same pads that

231

they were using on the woman.

232

And then they also have one that shows

inflammation in the body, and I believe

233

people were sleeping on grounding pads

and then it would show the inflammation in

234

the morning and how much it had decreased.

235

Just some really, really cool visuals,

which a lot of times you don't always get

236

in these, uh, the scientific articles.

237

So it was really cool for me to be able to

see that as well as to link it into the.

238

The description of the show.

239

So hopefully you guys get a chance to

go ahead and check that out because

240

I really do think it's worth checking

it out and just seeing firsthand what

241

some of these benefits can be from

something so simple as just grounding.

242

And also one thing that.

243

Personally, I'm always willing to

try is a method or a process that

244

for one is so accessible, right?

245

I mean, it's literally free.

246

You can go walk outside

and receive these benefits.

247

But also there's just no

downside to it, right?

248

Like you're literally walking outside

and standing on some ground and

249

receiving these benefits and, you

know, It's like when you see these

250

pharmaceutical companies, right?

251

Like, and they put on, uh, like a

commercial, of course, I know they

252

they're legally obligated to put these,

but, uh, it's still just really crazy

253

to hear them say like, you know, may

cause a depression may cause suicidal

254

thoughts may cause dis uh, despite.

255

Uh, gut dysbiosis.

256

You know, like all these different

lists of things that are just insane

257

to me, a lot of times for like, they're

not even worth, uh, the pain of.

258

Possibly having one of these side effects.

259

So I just always love trying

something that has no downside

260

to it, but has the possibility of

being just extremely beneficial.

261

Now, the second topic that I'm

going to cover today is something

262

that the Japanese actually have

a term for, which is really cool.

263

Um, many people have done

this for generations.

264

Uh, of course, but it's really cool

to have a term for this, which is

265

Shinran Yoku or forest bathing, which

I just love that term personally.

266

Um, anytime a walking through a

forest, it's really nice to think

267

of it as a bathing in the forest,

but literally that's what it is.

268

It's taking some time.

269

To walk through for a forest specifically

by honestly I think any form of nature

270

can really provide the same benefit.

271

But forest bathing is

literally going out for a walk.

272

But just being present with your walk

and enjoying your time in nature.

273

And there was a study done.

274

There's actually been multiple studies,

but the one that I'm, I'm personally

275

looking at on this episode, Took 155

participants and they went ahead and

276

checked for specifically, um, depressive.

277

Behaviors or depressed, sorry.

278

Depressive tendencies.

279

So they were really focused on

mental health and forest bathing.

280

They were able to track the.

281

Mental health of these participants

through their blood pressure, as

282

well as the use of what's called

profile of mood states or P O M S.

283

It's literally just kind of like

a list of terms that you would use

284

to identify yourself with, um, in

terms of like what you're feeling.

285

So it could be, you know, literally

like, do you feel depressed?

286

Do you feel angry at the world?

287

You know, like, um, pretty much just

different states that you could be feeling

288

that would be a depressive tendency.

289

So we don't need to get too far into it.

290

I just want you to

understand what that meant.

291

But of the 155 participants,

37% had depressive tendencies.

292

Now all participants showed significant

decreases in blood pressure.

293

And in negative P O M S which once

again is essentially stating that

294

they had less negative mood states.

295

After forest bathing.

296

Now, before the session.

297

Those with depressive tendencies

scored significantly higher on the POM.

298

S negative items, which once

again, that's not good if you,

299

if you score higher on that.

300

Uh, then those with the depressive

tendencies now after forest bathing,

301

those with depressive den tendencies

demonstrated significantly greater

302

improvements in many of P O M S items.

303

Than those without depressive tendencies,

and many of them no longer differed

304

between those with and without depressive

tendencies, which is insane, right.

305

Something as simple as going out

for a short walk through nature can

306

provide mental health benefits, right?

307

Like, this is insane to me.

308

Like what, what doctor is out there

prescribing forest bathing to people,

309

dealing with mental health issues.

310

Right.

311

And of course, like, don't get me wrong.

312

I'm not trying to be little.

313

Anyone's experience

here with mental health.

314

I know that there are people who are

really going through and struggling with

315

mental health, of course, but at the end

of the day, All is my question is here is

316

why are we so quick to prescribe pills and

all these different kinds of practices?

317

When we have very accessible, free

things that are showing a lot of benefit

318

to them and, you know, they could

be even just something that we could

319

add on to the prescription, right?

320

Like these are things that personally

in my opinion, need to really be.

321

Implemented more into our society, right?

322

Like we need to have a stronger

connection with nature.

323

I actually personally

believe that your biology is.

324

Literally begging for you to have

a stronger connection with nature.

325

We are a part of nature and you know,

we're really good at removing ourselves

326

from nature, finding ways to be very

comfortable and not having to pretty

327

much have any contact with nature at all.

328

And.

329

As we're spending practically

all of our time indoors.

330

Um, you know, not getting outside

enough, not breathing in fresh air,

331

not going on these walks, not getting

our feet connected to the earth, which.

332

Once again, like I said, I

think our biology is actually

333

expecting us to do these things.

334

It's expecting us to get

more connected to nature.

335

It's expecting us to be in contact with

the Earth's surface, you know, not having

336

a layer between us at all times and,

you know, rising with the sun, going

337

to bed with the setting of the sun.

338

I.

339

You know, I always think of when

I'm out camping, for example, if

340

you've ever camped in a, you know, a

traditional tent without any kind of a.

341

Cell phone or episode and any

kind of screen or technology

342

really for that matter.

343

And if you just go camping.

344

It's wild.

345

How quickly you get in sync

with the cycles of the sun.

346

It's like the second the sun goes down,

you know, you have maybe a campfire going

347

and you're hanging out with some friends,

but you go to bed pretty, relatively

348

close to when you know, sun down.

349

And then when the sun rises, like you

typically don't sleep in very long.

350

Once the sun has risen, like

it's shining through your tent.

351

Um, you know, if it's hot,

then you're probably going to

352

get cooked out of your tent.

353

So it's very easy for us to.

354

Get back into sync with nature.

355

And I just feel that we live our

lives in a way that is very out

356

sync or out of sync with nature.

357

And I think that our biology is.

358

Expecting us to do certain things, right?

359

I mean, we've been technically on this

planet apparently for, you know, since

360

190,000 BC, but we've been living our

lives in a dramatically different way for

361

the last 200 years in a way that really

our biology, in my opinion, just hasn't

362

had the ability to catch up to right.

363

Our biology still expects

us to get a lot of sunlight.

364

Our biology expects us to be outside

breathing the fresh air outside and being

365

in contact with the earth and, uh, you

know, rising and doing things during the

366

daytime and then kind of winding down

and taking it easier in the evening time.

367

So, excuse me for that little rant

there, but truly that is what I believe.

368

I believe that we have lost a lot

of our connection with nature.

369

We've lost our connection

with what I call the elements.

370

Right.

371

Um, being in touch with earth,

drinking, clean water, breathing,

372

good air, getting a lot of sunlight.

373

Like we are out of

touch with these things.

374

And I think that it takes a toll

on our bodies, right when we

375

live out of sync with nature.

376

And so it's very important for us

to get back into sync with nature.

377

And as we can see, science is

really starting to show the benefits

378

of being in sync with nature.

379

So.

380

For the actionable steps of today's

episode, which is something I

381

always love to leave you all with.

382

So you can actually apply

this knowledge to your life.

383

First off is going to be with grounding.

384

Honestly, I like to start

where it's free and accessible.

385

So literally that means just going

outside, finding a patch of grass or dirt.

386

Taking off your shoes and socks and

planting your feet or as well, your

387

hands in that soil or grass, and

just simply sitting there and taking

388

a moment to really just soak it in.

389

Maybe you can do a little meditation

or maybe even read a book, whatever

390

it might be, but getting outside.

391

And honestly, I think at

best, if you could get 30

392

minutes, that would be amazing.

393

But even if you could get outside and just

get those benefits for about 10 minutes

394

would still be a massive, massive win.

395

And you know, anything is better.

396

Than nothing.

397

So as many times as you can do

it a week would be incredible.

398

But even if you were just doing it

a couple times a week, there's still

399

going to be a lot of benefit there.

400

Now, something that's probably going to

be a lot more accessible to people in

401

terms of, if you have a job that requires

you to be indoors all day, or just

402

simply not able to ground and actually

get your feet planted on the earth.

403

Then the next best thing is probably

going to be to get a grounding mat.

404

So you can get some that once again,

you just plug it in to your outlet

405

and then you can have this grounding

mat on the floor, take off your shoes

406

and then plant your feet on this mat.

407

And you're going to receive a

lot of those grounding benefits.

408

They also have some that

you can put in your bed.

409

So you're receiving the

benefits overnight as well.

410

Whatever method works best for you.

411

I personally don't care, but just give one

of those a try and see what works for you.

412

Also something that's really

cool about both of these things

413

is that you can really just

test them on yourselves, right?

414

For a grounding.

415

You can literally go outside.

416

If you have a cut somewhere,

maybe you just keep an eye on it

417

and see how quickly it heals up.

418

Or if you notice any difference

with it, healing faster.

419

Maybe if you have inflammation in certain

parts of your body, like your joints.

420

Uh, maybe you notice that

your joints naturally feel

421

a little bit better as well.

422

There's a lot of benefits that

can be had from doing this.

423

So, uh, really keep an eye out

and see if you feel some of

424

these benefits for yourself.

425

And then when it comes to forest bathing,

I understand that, unfortunately,

426

we don't all have super easy access

to a forest or even just a really

427

beautiful nature trail for that matter.

428

Um, but even going for a walk outside.

429

Is so beneficial, even if it's in a

city, you know, aura suburb, whatever it

430

might be just getting outside and going

for a walk is going to be so beneficial

431

for your mental health for your body.

432

Obviously.

433

Um, it's a physical movement that I

personally, once again, think your body

434

expects out of you expects you to walk.

435

It expects you to lift

things to squat, to stand up.

436

These are some basic movements

that our body is expecting of us.

437

Now, if you're able to

do a forest bath, not.

438

Just in your neighborhood, but

actually in a forest or in a

439

nature setting, because obviously

not everyone lives near a forest.

440

You might live in the desert.

441

Or something different

along the along those lines.

442

Um, Um, I still believe

getting out into nature.

443

Is going to be beneficial if you are.

444

Uh, trying to do a forest

bathing and it's the desert.

445

It's okay.

446

Still go for it.

447

Maybe the saguaro cactus are going to, or

CAC di cactuses are going to help you out.

448

But nonetheless, getting out there

is going to be really beneficial

449

for our mental health and.

450

This is something we can all kind

of keep tabs on for ourselves.

451

If you deal with depressive tendencies.

452

Try forest bathing and see if you

notice any benefit, just getting

453

outside and being present, right?

454

Like we want to stay off of our phones

if we can, when we're out there doing

455

this forest bathing, we really want to

be as present as possible and really

456

just focus on our breath and breathing

in this beautiful, clean air from, you

457

know, all the plants around us that are

really helping to filter out the air and

458

keep this world just a beautiful place.

459

Now, if you have access to a really

beautiful nature trail, And the

460

trail itself is, you know, not

covered in sharp rocks or glass

461

or trash or anything like that.

462

Like let's say it's a pretty

pristine nature trail then.

463

Of course you can also.

464

Kind of do a little bit of a double

dip here or kill two birds with one

465

stone and simply do some earthing

while you do the forest bathing.

466

Just be very present and careful where

you're stepping, but you can really get

467

the benefit of both of those at one time.

468

Which I'm all about stacking

these hacks whenever we can.

469

Uh, but that would be a really great

practice, but honestly, just once again,

470

getting out and doing a walk in as

much nature as possible, a couple times

471

a week and getting outside and doing

some grounding a couple times a week.

472

These could have some really profound

benefits for us in terms of our

473

sleep, in terms of our healing

of our wounds, of our injuries.

474

Uh, in terms of our inflammation

in our body, in terms of our

475

mental health, there's so much.

476

Benefit that we can reap from these

two very, very simple practices.

477

And it would be a shame for us to

not take advantage of these because.

478

Once again, I know there's a ton of

practices out there that require a lot of

479

money for us and, you know, can definitely

benefit our health, but I'm really all

480

about the simple, easy, practical things

that we can do on a day-to-day basis.

481

That really have a very

low barrier of entry.

482

So that is going to do

it for today's episode.

483

It is all about grounding

and forest bathing.

484

And really just reconnecting

to the elements.

485

And I actually think that they sometimes

have even more benefit than all of

486

these special, you know, tools and

products that you have to pay for and,

487

uh, you know, spend a ton of money on.

488

I actually think a lot of these

simple practices are the ones

489

that provide most of the benefits.

490

So go ahead, try these out.

491

There's literally nothing to lose.

492

It costs you nothing to do

these things and they can have a

493

massive benefit on your health.

494

Of course, there's tons of other

things that can play A role in

495

our health, like our diet and

movement and all these other things.

496

But these are two really easy practices

that once again are accessible to

497

everyone and it can be as simple

as just walking outside your door.

498

So I hope this episode

provided a lot of value to you.
