Is nudity actually beneficial to our mental health? Or is it that clothes are detrimental, and embracing nudity is simply returning to the baseline wellbeing we should have been at all along? 🤔

So happy to finally be doing the painting. This is just primer that I'm applying in the photo, but if you look through the doorway next to me into the office you can see the actual colour we're doing.

I can go out in public like this right? The jacket’s just long enough that I'm not technically exposing myself 🤪

Well, looks like I'm 34 today. Still managing to stave off the frailty of old age, although I must be starting to look older, because someone assumed my sister was my daughter a couple of days ago. I mean gosh, having a child at 34, can you even imagine it? I'm basically still a child myself 🤣

If your nudism excludes LGBTQ+ people, it was never freedom. 🏳️‍🌈 w/ @itsrickypnw.bsky.social #nudism #naturism #bodyfreedom #fkk

It's like that bit in Call of Duty when you die, but you get to shoot people first. Is that still a thing? I haven't played any of the recent ones 😂 More of my drawing reference poses at patreon.com/nudistjeff

Why LGBTQ+ inclusion in nudism has to mean more than a rainbow flag in the newsletter. #naturism (Thank you @itsrickypnw.bsky.social & @pnw-swirl.bsky.social for allowing me to use your photo.)

Being high up sure gets the adrenaline going! Don’t worry though, I’m very careful.

I was honoured to celebrate Naked Hiking Day with friends. The whole experience was amazing. #worldnakedhikingday #naked #werrong

The biggest never-nudes are probably the people who most secretly wish they had the confidence to bare it all. I know I was when I was younger. I was so envious of those guys who could just get naked without a care in the world about what other people thought. And now I’m one of them! 😎

Yesterday I went for my first decent hike since my foot injury, and it seems to be all better. Didn't notice any soreness at all. Time to start getting my hiking fitness up, as we're going on a camping trip with lots of hiking in a few weeks!😃

Pretty snazzy to wake up and see I've surpassed 20k followers here. Nudism has made me so much more happy and confident, I really wish I could tell the whole world about it and make them see how wonderful it is. But 20k people isn't a bad start is it? 😋

It’s World Naked Hiking Day! These kind of days are so important for raising awareness in the general public about the benefits of nudism. Nude hiking was really what got me excited about nudism, and made me want to become an advocate. Who else enjoys a nice hike as nature intended?

In this pose I demonstrate the incorrect method of sitting on a chair :p Patreon.com/nudistjeff for more or my figure drawing reference poses and photography

Get your feet in the dirt and feel the Earth. If it’s wet and muddy, even better!

Really looking forward to getting out in nature again after 5 days in the city. Just a couple of days of work first, and then the weekend will be here 😀

I thought this one would be a cool pose to share for this week's free life drawing reference. More at patreon.com/nudistjeff

Been working on the veggie garden fence. Partly to keep out rabbits and kangaroos, but mostly for growing climbing plants. I've put in some peas and raspberries already, but I'm most looking forward to summer when I can grow tomatoes.

This is another one of those photos that I thought looked cool, but I couldn’t think of a meaningful caption to go with it, so I’m writing a caption about how I couldn’t think of a caption😅

One silver lining for winter is that when the sun does shine, you don't have to worry about getting burnt (at least not where I live). Take those opportunities when you can to get some winter sun on your skin. It's good for you ☀️

To get more rights for nudists, we need more public acceptance. To get more public acceptance, we need to be more visible. To be more visible, we need to openly share our experiences of nudism with the world!

A nice comfy pose this week. I don't think I've done this one at any in-person drawing sessions, because there's never any backrest to lean on. How rude! More of my figure drawing reference poses at patreon.com/nudistjeff

Gotta take extra care climbing rocks in the nude. Wouldn’t wanna get a scrape anywhere delicate 😂 (This was obviously taken before my foot injury, although that's gotten a lot better, so I think I can almost climb rocks again)

I may have an injured foot, but that won't stop me from getting a workout in. Just gotta pick exercises that won't hurt it.

Shortly before I stepped on that rake, I planted some new camellia plants near where our tiny house is going. The area is looking really pretty in late autumn. My foot seems to be healing well, so hopefully it'll be ok to go fishing tomorrow as planned.

Sanding ceilings is silly... But not as silly as stepping on a rake and impaling your foot like I did yesterday. At least I won't have to sand the ceiling until my foot's better enough to climb the scaffold. Also anyone who says I should have been wearing shoes can fuck off 😝

Naturism in America has a marketing problem. #naturism

I really gotta get more into these sunrise hikes. It may be a bit cool, but before the wind comes up it’s actually quite comfortable, there’s no one else around, and everything looks stunning at sunrise.

Stick 'em up! Take off the clothes and no one gets hurt!😆 First one from the figure drawing photoshoot I did this week. Check out patreon.com/nudistjeff for more.

I’ve been so happy with how well this garden is going. Already we’re eating from it several times a week, and the cabbages and broccoli haven’t even started producing yet. Can’t wait until summer so I can grow some warm weather crops too.

I got a bit too strong on dips, so I had to get a dip belt 💪

Running naked is one of life's simplest, yet greatest pleasures. It's pure joy and freedom!

Taking #NakedLiving into the outside world 🍃 In our society, it's a beautiful act of activism to take off your clothes where no one else will and share a space with others in harmony. Though #nudism may not work for everyone, it's essential to be able to decide and respect the decisions of others.

I took a nice little trip to Whalers Cove while I was in town yesterday. It was lovely in the sun. The water... maybe not so much 🥶. Winter's just about here. If cold plunges are as therapeutic as they say, I think I've had enough therapy to last me until spring 😂

The image quality didn’t turn out the best on this one, but I absolutely love the composition and the vibe (and also how buff I look in it 😋💪)

I guess I'm a dancer or something in this one. As always, the rest of the set is at patreon.com/nudistjeff. A big thanks to everyone who supports me over there 🙏

This spot is my old stomping ground. I used to always go nude hiking here, but haven’t for a few years, as it’s gotten more popular. But late autumn at sunrise, with a high tide blocking access from the other direction, I decided I could get away with it. It was absolutely magical!

For the past few months my main job at work has been cutting down this old orchard. It's been a physically taxing job, and not one that I've particularly enjoyed. Going for my evening walk, it was a lovely sense of relief seeing it finished, with a beautiful sunset to top it off!

No decent fish up this end of the beach, but at least I could get some sunshine on my entire body. Later I went up the other end of the beach where I had to fish clothed, but I did catch 3 big salmon. I guess you can't have everything you want at once.

The weather’s starting to cool off now. It’s the time of year where you gotta take those opportunities to get outside whenever you can. Unless you’re in the northern hemisphere of course. Now it’s your guys turn for sunshine. Get naked and make the most of it!

If Atlas got to have a bit of a rest 😄 See more of my work at patreon.com/nudistjeff

Insert insightful/amusing text about naturism here 😆 Honestly, writing captions for these photos is the hardest part of what I do. Maybe I shouldn’t feel so much pressure to explain naturism, and just let the picture do the talking.

Nudist, naturist, naked person, or just someone who enjoys being naked, labels are the least important part. What matters is that we all believe that it’s OK to be naked, and we have the self respect to live that truth, even if other people think it’s weird or scandalous.

These hens are getting so big. Another month and they'll start laying eggies 😋

The world would be a better place if everyone spent more time playing naked in the woods. Wars don’t usually get started by people who play naked in the woods, do they?

So lucky to have you. So lucky to have found another incredibly sensitive creature🌸 So lucky that you love me like you do. T'estimo 🩷🌱 @nudivan.bsky.social

We had absolutely beautiful weather this weekend. We were going to be working on the tiny house, but we decided it would be a waste to be inside when it was so sunny, especially this close to winter. Instead we did garden and farm odd jobs, and you can bet I got as much sun on me as I could 🌞

The hiking adventure begins! I'm so happy to be in nature again 🥰💚 I put on my favorite attire just off the car, ready to enjoy the day with the beautiful people of @jovesnaturistes.bsky.social #nakedinnature #naked #hiking #freehiking #bodyfreedom #nonsexualnudity

Very classical :p More of my figure drawing references and nude adventure photos are at patreon.com/nudistjeff
