We   have many ways to get close to nature , such as dancing⁽¹⁾ in the rain , stepping on fallen⁽²⁾ leaves or digging⁽³⁾ in the soil⁽⁴⁾ , but my favourite is walking⁽⁵⁾barefoot⁽⁶⁾ .

Walking⁽⁵⁾barefoot⁽⁶⁾ can be enjoyable⁽⁷⁾ and helpful . It can help us sleep better and feel rested⁽⁸⁾ in mind and body . It can also build our foot muscles⁽⁹⁾ and improve our balance . According⁽¹⁰⁾ to Traditional Chinese Medicine , walking⁽⁵⁾barefoot⁽⁶⁾ can be good for our health .

When   you want to try walking⁽⁵⁾barefoot⁽⁶⁾ , there’s no need to hurry   . At first , walking⁽⁵⁾barefoot⁽⁶⁾ for 10 minutes can be fine   . After that , add 5 minutes every day until you can walk for 20 to 30   minutes . If your feet hurt , take a break or curtail⁽¹¹⁾ the time .

Walking⁽⁵⁾barefoot⁽⁶⁾ , however , isn’t always   safe . People with health problems like flat feet or back pain should   avoid this practice . What’s more , walking⁽⁵⁾barefoot⁽⁶⁾ in cold or wet environments   might cause health problems . To make walking⁽⁵⁾barefoot⁽⁶⁾ safe , remember the following⁽¹²⁾ points :

·Choose   safe places , like soft grass or warm sand .

·Stay   away from things like rocks or broken⁽¹³⁾ glass   .

·Keep   shoes at hand if you worry that your feet will get too sore⁽¹⁴⁾ .

·Listen   to your body — stop if you feel pain or discomfort⁽¹⁵⁾ .

Walking⁽⁵⁾barefoot⁽⁶⁾ is a great way to feel connected⁽¹⁶⁾ with nature , but it’s important to stay safe and consider   your own health condition .

Not   long ago , a photo of the football players in my college showed up on   my phone as a “memory” , which was kept⁽¹⁷⁾ through   the digital⁽¹⁸⁾ memory   . I was surprised to see the photo at first and sweet memories flashed into   my mind .

In   the photo , the players from the football team hugged⁽¹⁹⁾ together in excitement⁽²⁰⁾ after   they won the game . At that time , I took a photo of them with my phone . It recorded⁽²¹⁾ the friendship and the happiness . Then , I fell⁽²²⁾ into the habit of taking⁽²³⁾ photos of everything . More and more photos filled⁽²⁴⁾ my phone so I almost forgot this photo . Thanks to   the digital⁽¹⁸⁾ memory   , I could enjoy the happy time again .

People  needed⁽²⁵⁾ to make an effort to record things in the past .   But now we can do something like that easily through the digital⁽¹⁸⁾ memory . We put what we want to remember into our   smartphones . Most of the photos that I have kept⁽¹⁷⁾ on my phones— and in the cloud now bring happy   memories back to me .

However   , not all the digital⁽¹⁸⁾ memories   are happy . Some are sad . When I see the photos of my lost⁽²⁶⁾ pet , I am worried⁽²⁷⁾ .   Because they make me recall⁽²⁸⁾ something   I want to forget . Usually , digital⁽¹⁸⁾ memories   are sent to me non-stop and without any human-like feelings . That drives me crazy   .

It’s   hard to say clearly when the digital⁽¹⁸⁾ memory   started madly⁽²⁹⁾ .   These digital⁽¹⁸⁾ memories   , whether happy or sad , break into our lives . In my job as a reporter   , I have spent⁽³⁰⁾ the   past five years taking⁽²³⁾ different   photos . They will always be there , whatever .
