What a brilliant few days at the INF-FNI @worldnaturism.bsky.social Congress. 🌍 The best part was getting to know naturist leaders from around the world, sharing ideas, comparing experiences and making some lovely new connections. I’m heading home tired, inspired and with my head full of ideas. ❤️

Eleven middle-aged nude women stand around the Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park sign and hold up a Women In Focus flag. They are stood on the grass verge of a paved area with tree behind and low buildings in the middle distance on either side. It is a bright sunny day.

It got a little wet here in this part of Ontario yesterday. I'm so glad we dodged it, going to Niagara on Tuesday. At least we didn't have the same levels that Toronto itself had, but there were some campers that had to move due to flooding here at @bareoaks.ca.

The British Sauna Society (a non-naturist organisation) have put out a survey asking what people want from public saunas in the UK. I think its worth UK naturists responding, as that alone will help advocate for nude sauna culture. www.britishsaunasociety.org.uk/the-british-...

On Wednesday evening @helen.berrimansbareall.uk and I visited "Sweat and Reset" which is the new venture of Mike (of @nakedtravels1.bsky.social). He did a "Buck Moon Ritual" in a Finnish style sauna. Saunas in the summer are great when its a bit hot outside as it feels cold coming out afterwards!

Helen standing and smiling to the camera in the doorway of the sauna. It is a small, outside "barrel" sauna with wisp bundles handing beside the door. Helen is wearing only sandals and sunglasses.

Simon is stood inside the sauna looking out. It is a small, outside "barrel" sauna with wisp bundles hanging by the door and the log fire can be seen burning in the background. Beside the sauna, to the right, the end of a bench is in shot too. Simon is wearing only sliders on his feet.

Simon is sat nude in a trough-shaped metal bath filled with cold water, for the cold plunge after coming out of the sauna. The bath is on wooden decking, with grass in the foreground and fencing behind.

A photo from inside the sauna session itself. Helen is lying on her front face down with her head in her raised and folded arms. She is lying on towels on the sauna bench and is clearly hot and sweating. Two arms holding oak wisp bundles from the left of the image have motion blur as they are being used to lightly hit Helen's naked back and torso.

Hot, innit... This extreme heat in the UK sounds great but if you do go outside nude in the sun, please, SPF50 all over and stay hydrated. The best way to stay cool though is to stay nude inside, with the curtains shut. And if you don't sleep nude tonight, then you'll just be torturing yourself!
