Naturism, often referred to as nudism, is a lifestyle that promotes social nudity in a non-sexual context. It emphasizes a connection with nature, body acceptance, and freedom from societal norms regarding clothing. Naturists believe that being nude in appropriate settings fosters a sense of community and well-being. Practitioners of naturism often gather in designated areas such as beaches, resorts, and campsites where nudity is accepted. The movement encourages respect for oneself and others, promoting a healthy body image and a natural way of living. Naturism is about embracing one's body and enjoying the outdoors without the constraints of clothing.
