There’ll be more than one full moon out tonight as hordes of
skinny-dippers strip off for a swim at beaches around the country. The
annual Skinny-dipping Down a Moonbeam event is on this evening, with
people being encouraged to head to their local beach or river for an
evening dip in the nude. An east-facing body of water is best for people
wanting to bathe in the moonlight, said Free Beaches New Zealand

Body positive art exhibit censored for female nudity
|
|---|
When Kristin Harsma opened "Beauty in Every BODY" at the beginning of
February, she wanted to use art to send a positive message about body
image. She had pitched the show a year ago to Artspace Jackson Flats,
the live/work art building where she lives. But when a fellow resident
took issue with the nudity in some of the pieces, Artspace, the
nonprofit that owns the building, asked Harsma to alter her show. Harsma

Yoga class goes naked to seek spiritual enlightenment
|
|---|
Yoga dates back some 5,000 years, and in all that time, the reason for
this practice has stayed the same - the attainment of perfect
tranquility and spiritual insight, while meditating. What it’s not
about, is contorting into the perfect pose, sharing selfies of your sexy
backbend on Instagram - or showing off your cute yoga outfits from
LuLuLemon. Maybe that's why everyone at LeVar Carter»s yoga class is
naked. "Of course, the ancient...More... |

|
|---|
All hail Chrissy Teigen. The social media rock star we all want to be
friends with IRL, and John Legend’s lady love, took to Instagram
recently to show off her salad-making skills while in the nude. Aware of
how the Internet is overrun with haters, she wrote: "plz don’t shame me
I am a strong proud salad making woman just being natural and trying to
live my life." Thanks to some well-placed emoji, the Instagram

about being a naked diner as well as a naked chef? Dine Naked Bristol
is inviting people to enjoy a meal with them - all while completely

naturism in Britain. As an exhibition of her work opens in Edinburgh,
she talks about how the project changed the way she felt about her body

Is Facebook nude-shaming the Venus of Willendorf?
|
|---|
Apparently, a curvy Venus was too much for Facebook to handle. In what
has become a case of Stone Age pornography, Facebook recently removed a
post by a self-proclaimed "artivist" featuring a 30,000-year-old nude
statue known as the Venus of Willendorf, which depicts a corpulent woman
with prominent labia. In late December, Laura Ghianda stated on her
page that an image of the statue posted on Facebook was removed as...More... |

|
|---|

Naked Hiking: How to Enjoy the Great Outdoors in the Buff
|

Last Tuesday was the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year, and
though you may not have realized it, it’s also a day when some hiking
enthusiasts enjoy nude hiking — that’s right, Naked Hiking Day (or

holiday, you can find several web pages dedicated to it, and the larger
trend is known as “free” or “bare hiking.” Is nude hiking legal? Lots of
people do it even...More... |

Want Better Self-Confidence? Get Naked!
|
|---|
This may sound taboo, but it doesn’t have to be. As the March/April
2017 issue of “Playboy” proclaims, naked is normal! Not only is baring
your skin natural, but going nude is also rich in both psychological and
biological benefits. Letting it all hang out is not easy for everyone,
but with enough practice, being naked becomes second nature, in addition
to first. Everyone was born naked, so why not live naked? An online
survey conducted by...More... |
