The barefoot yogi- another reason not yet mentioned for doing yoga barefoot

has to do with the stimulation of meridian points on the feet, which should

be familiar through Refloxology. When you squeeze the fleshy part of the big

toe, for instance, you stimulate the pituitary gland. Or, rubbing the soles

of the feet together after relaxation stimulates lots of meridian points.

This is better acheived barefoot than in socks. I don't think most yogis

would consider doing yoga with gloves on- why should the feet be any

different? I'm sitting here writing this is my bare feet in Maine, rubbing my

feet together, and it feels great. A little almond oil on my feet would feel

even better.

 

In general, when trying to figure out the effects of a particular pose,

exercise or practice, I find it helpful to consider energy and energy flow

first, whether it be through the chakras, nadis, electromagnetic field,

meridians or what have you. Life is all about the flow and exchange of

energy, and Kundalini Yoga works with all these energy systems and more.

Peace to all- Ram Rattan Singh
