Barefoot Running Books

There was a time when humans ran comfortably without the aid of today's running shoes. Restrictive footwear and the repetitive strain and injuries caused by running on hard surfaces has resulted in a modern plague of foot and foot-related injuries. This can be corrected with through foot strengthening insoles like Barefoot Science.

Another way is through the the ancient practice of barefoot running, which is making a comeback. The popular bestseller Born to Runby Christopher Mcdougall (see video below left) and the practical guide, Barefoot Running: Step by Step by Ken Bob Saxton, (see video below right) will set you on the path to safe and effective minimalist or barefoot running.

By delving deeper into the mechanics of proper running, these books make a strong case for the idea of running barefoot or with minimal footwear designed to naturally accommodate the human foot.

Meanwhile, our disconnection with the Earth has created a host of modern health problems, especially chronic inflammation, which is the basis for so many diseases. By reconnecting to the Earth, we can relieve and even eliminate many symptoms. Fortunately, there is now a groundbreaking (excuse the pun!) book, Earthing: The Most Important Health Discovery Ever? that explains how to benefit from the earth's wonderful healing energies. So when not running, there are other ways to stay connected to the earth! For more information, check out Earthing products.
