Naturism, Nudism and Gymnosophy for the BARE-ly Curious

A podcast for anyone who's ever been curious about naturism, but never quite saw themselves in the nudist clubs. This is naturism in the modern world, talked about honestly. Each episode sits with what being naked actually feels like: in the body, the freedom and expansion of it, the awkward, and the surprising ordinariness once you begin. Why is getting naked still more taboo than yoga? Where does body shame come from, and what loosens it? How could spaces be made "safer'? Are the questions being asked. And we discuss gymnosophy, the "wisdom of the naked". It's an ancient idea that early naturists revived a century ago, and most people have never heard of it. We explore shame, confidence, curiosity, and the long, quietly radical history of people, especially women, who have chosen to bare all, some or nothing. You don't need to be a naturist to listen. You just need to be BARE-ly curious. Hosted by Naomi Gale: holistic pelvic care practitioner, educator, alternative living enthusiast, photographer and author. Hosted on Acast.
