centauri4-naturism:nudiarist:Sexual Shame and Guilt Starts the Moment We Put Clothes On — The Healing Power of Loving Sexual Energy http://lovingsexualenergy.com/blog/2014/2/3/sexual-shame-and-guilt-starts-the-moment-we-put-clothes-on“Sometimes I think practicing nudists or naturists are a step ahead in ‘consciousness’. The stories of folks who have embraced ‘public’ nudity with like-minded others are invariably the same. They all talk about the initial fear and inhibitions they experienced as they doffed their clothes. Self-awareness and self-criticism can be excruciating at that moment. Not only is there anxiety about people looking at you, but also anxiety about ‘where’ and ‘how’ to look at others. Yet despite these initial discomforts, new nudists ALL talk about the experience as being wonderfully freeing. It does not take long to realize, and internalize, that others embrace your nakedness as being beautifully normal. Issues about body image eventually dissolve. New confidence flourishes. ”PHOTO CREDIT - http://griffinspuds.blogspot.com/2011/07/we-heart-summer.htmlThere are many, “My first time” and “discovering” social nudity stories available online, but I suggest we need more of them to bridge the imaginary gap long-thought to exist between those who dream of running around nude and those who do it!Maybe, just maybe, we can extend an invitation to the imaginers to submit written or recorded thoughts on what they think social nudity is like, and then others can kindly, constructively confirm or deny the ideas. It would be an imaginative exercise to be sure, but the only thing better is offering to escort someone to a Nudist resort open house event! Don’t be shy, be open and friendly in a mentoring way.Starting here may be useful for anyone curious about living without costumes:http://m.wikihow.com/Practise-Nudism-in-Your-Room-With-No-One-Knowing~ Naturism as a Way of Living -- source link
