A simpler time on Little Beach (Maui) in 2009. Simpler for me. But also for Little Beach. Official harassment of beachgoers began in 2020. It is an abuse of power and waste of public funds.

This guy was falling apart a few months ago. This was shortly after I thought I was having a heart attack and checked myself into the ER. Turns out I was handling stress poorly. I’ve moved on to setting better boundaries, eating better, exercising again, and reengaging with this community.

I may not always meditate atop a cliff in Hawaii, but this throwback was built for Stress Awareness Day.

It’s no coincidence that after recent stress-induced incidents that I’ve reconnected with my most comfortable way of being.

During the first fall of the pandemic, online connection was a lifeline to combat isolation.

Having returned recently, I’m grateful to those who’ve followed and are helping me rebuild my connection to this community.

I’ve never been a big fan of costumes.

18 years ago, my first naturist photo was taken in a secluded spot on a Malibu beach. After we got home, we transferred the photos and wiped the card before giving the borrowed digital camera back. We never imagined phones would be cameras.

This is my all-time favorite photo of myself. I was weeks from marriage looking back at the love of my life. I actually had a raging headache and a lot of studying to do. But you wouldn’t know it.

Find someone who accepts you for you. It makes a world of difference.

Thanks to all who got out there today. Wish I could’ve. Peaceful protest is our right. No matter how much the right wing lies about us.

I’ve discovered that I am calmer with a more natural, less strained look in my eyes and smile when I take an unclothed photo. It is the purest expression of my being, of who I am at my core.

We are called to love people as they are for who they are. We start by doing that for ourselves.

Nature plays a huge role in my being nudist. Not only being outdoors, but also my deep interest in conservation and preservation of habitats.

For me, nudism (or naturism) and environmental consciousness go hand-in-hand.

Love yourself by loving the planet.

With the weather flipping the switch to autumn, here’s a little warmth in the timeline from late spring 2022.

The Ledges in Vermont are a special place, one of my favorite spots on the planet. Living the way I was meant to be, I always feel whole there.

Society’s collective gymnophobia has cut us off from that which makes us whole: connection to our own bodies.

Polluting thoughts of never being good enough make it hard to show empathy, understanding, and humanity to others.

All bodies are worthy of dignity and respect.

Reconnect.

When I honeymooned on Maui years ago, I determined I was unclothed about 70% of the time.

It was the most glorious ten days.

In northern climes, it would make sense to have World Naked Gardening Day later in the year. I had a naked harvest day this weekend.

Yes, I’m back. I’ve missed connecting with the nudist community.
