Hi, I am Salina Sunshine and I’m a Christian naturist. I’m happy to be with you today. I kind of wanted to share a little bit of my story. So back in November 2019, I was laying in an, Airbnb in Miami, Florida. And I just felt like inside my spirit.

Sonshine’s Brightness

I remember the first time that I met who we’d eventually come to know as a dear friend in Salina Sonshine. It was at Oak Lake Trails in Oklahoma. We were fairly new naturists and so was she. We did…

Free under the stars — have you tried it? ✨
It’s not about showing skin.
It’s about feeling alive, connected, and free — for a moment that belongs only to you and the night sky. 🌿

To hide the body is to hide the truth.
They called it modesty, but it was control.
Your body isn’t obscene — their fear is.
Freedom starts where shame ends.
Uncover. Unlearn. Unapologize.

Clothes change with fashion.
The body is timeless.
Naturism reminds us of that simple truth. 🌿✨

Naturism - Griffin Theatre Company

Naturism is an irreverent, bare-all comedy by Ang Collins. Far from civilisation, a group of naturist baby boomers have created their very own off-grid, eco-paradise. No worries... right?

The forest doesn’t care if you’re tall, short, curvy, thin, muscular, or soft.
It simply welcomes you as you are—without judgment, without comparison. 🌲🌿

Maybe it’s time we treated ourselves (and each other) with the same kindness.

✨ The naked body isn’t a costume, it’s the original truth. ✨
We are born without masks, without costumes, without roles to play.
Nudity isn’t performance.
It’s authenticity.
It’s the reminder that before trends, before fashion—there was only us. 🌞

✨Nudity isn’t performance. It’s presence.
We live in a world obsessed with appearances, roles, and masks.
But nudity strips away all of that, it isn’t a show, it isn’t a role you play.
It’s the purest reminder that presence is enough.
To be nude is not to perform, but to be.

To forgive your body is to free your soul.
The scars, the softness, the changes—none of them are mistakes.
They’re proof of life. 🌿
When you forgive your body for not being “perfect,” you release the chains of comparison.

Nud1ty in art is celebrated. Why not in life?

We admire the nud3 in paintings, sculptures, and galleries.
It’s called art.
But when it comes to real bodies, we call it shame.

The truth?
The human body has always been art—yours included.

What does the ANF do for me?
We get asked this question frequently. Another question to consider is, “why do we join any clubs, and what do we want from them?” #Naturism

🌍 Freedom isn’t about what you own, it’s about being at ease in your own skin.

That’s the essence of naturism. The INF reminds us that acceptance starts with ourselves, and from there, with the world. 🌱✨

When the body is free, the mind breathes deeper ☀️
The sun kisses your skin, the air wraps around you, the water becomes alive. Suddenly, you breathe deeper, lighter, freer.🌿
