When we stroll barefoot on the ground, we are not just grounding ourselves physically but also taking advantage of the energy of the earth. Moreover, the wind is personified as wanting to play with our hair, indicating that nature is not just supportive however also nurturing.

For that reason, we must put in the time to value and accept the earth and all that it needs to provide.
