Somewhere To Be How You’re Meant To Be

One day people will view themselves, each other and the world as they should, but until then we’re grateful for places like Bukovec Nudapláž where you can commune with creation as God planned.

People ask why I promote naturism, particularly alongside my Christian faith, so strongly. The simple answer is, it saved my life! And it can do the same for you…

10 years ago, I’d been in a dark place for nearly a decade. Depression wracked my life, I suffered insomnia and regular migraines, I was massively overweight and unfit. It wasn’t until God reminded me that we should look after His temple, and that shame in His creation is a sin, that I truly started seeing a way out.

God created us in His image, without shame. The body shame that society and the church promotes is a new invention. It’s not biblical; rather, it is sinful. This simple truth changed my whole perspective on life, returned me to a path that I had been errantly persuaded away from years earlier, and opened me up to a renewed and deeper relationship with Christ

Whatever your age, whatever your battles, whatever your life circumstances, I know God has freed you from shame, and you can benefit from a healthier and more biblical relationship with your body and that of others. It changes how you view the world, those around you, and yourself, all for the better.
