The scent of wet earth, salty air, crushed leaves, or sun-warmed skin becomes a gateway to #mindfulness. Without the barrier of clothing, my skin breathes in the scents of the #environment. Whether it’s the faint sweetness of ripe #bush fruits or the musky smell of the undergrowth, the olfactory experience of #Naturism is unparalleled. (9/11)

Walking barefoot in autumn is an experience all its own. The sensation of stepping on leaves — sometimes brittle & crackling, other times soft & damp — connects me directly with the changing landscape. In my practice of #HadakaShizenyoku I walk slowly & #mindfully, appreciating how the ground feels beneath my feet as I move through the #bush or along the beach. (5/11)

I would describe the feeling as therapeutic. Walking along a #bush track, with the air tinged by the earthy scent of fallen leaves, brings a sense of #connection to the #natural #world that feels intimate & grounding. It’s a stark contrast to #Naturism in summer, where heat can sometimes be overwhelming. (3/11)
