60 Seconds to a Healthier You

It is more than just your time at the gym that makes you healthy; it is the simple everyday acts that take mere seconds to complete that add up to healthy lifestyle. I believe in starting at the bottom and working my way up, and that means taking care of my feet and toes. If your shoes pinch your toes, like many fashionable pointy toed shoes do, the blood supply to your toes is compromised. The nerves can get compressed too and this makes for uncomfortable, unhappy feet. To counteract discomfort from confining shoes, just slip them off and wiggle your toes. Free those piggies! Try to spread your toes as wide as possible, making space between each toe. Repeat five times. While you're at it, flex your feet pulling your toes toward your nose to stretch the soles of your feet and hold for 10 seconds. Your feet will appreciate the attention.
