Naturism is a lifestyle choice having respect for nature , self acceptance, and the respect of other naked individuals. The naked human body in all its shapes and forms is amazing!! The naked form should be celebrated, it is not something to be ashamed of, it is not indecent, or immoral, but is something to be proud of irrespective of colour, size, gender, age or disability. Social nudity breaks down barriers/judgement, you are not defined by clothes you wear, but the person that is underneath. Naturism teaches us to be more accepting of others, it also makes you more aware of your environment and your body. There are many health benefits associated with naturism, here are a few: sleeping naked helps promote better sleep and regulates your temperature. More absorption of vitamin D when you sunbathe naked. Swimming naked can be liberating there is no better feeling, once tried it is hard to go back to a costume! If you are new to naturism it is always an idea to try in the comfort of your own home, walk around the house naked, or make a cup of tea, then sit and read a book.
