Warm feet, wool socks, add security, emotional and mental security, not just physical warmth. It does three things. And if you're cold and you're barefooted in a cold kitchen, there's no way you're comfortable and there's no way that you're not anxious and, and, and, and, and, you know, way less fear with warm feet than cold feet.
