Back activity

Walking barefoot on the Chemin du Petit Bonheur

Bessans

Come and improve your quality of life by walking barefoot, and above all, rediscover the pleasant sensation of your feet on the ground. An outing that will reconnect you with the joy your ancestors experienced, through the sensation of direct contact between your meridians and the earth.

Description

A rejuvenating walk combined with various wellness exercises (foot self-massage, reflexology, acupressure, and digitopressure). This outing takes place on the Bessans section of the Petit Bonheur trail (at the entrance to the Ribon Valley, near the Pont Bleu), where the terrain is ideal for barefoot walking. Thierry will show you how to walk "well" barefoot, using exercises to ground you to the Earth and appropriate practices. We’ll walk barefoot mindfully, experimenting with breathing cycles specific to Afghan walking. We’ll also take breaks to practice targeted movements from Fascia Yoga and Somatic Yoga, as well as Bio-Dynamic Relaxation, and exercises to tone and soften the foot area (and beyond). This is an outing that will bring you vitality, well-being, and relaxation.
