More than just a physical wellness practice, it is a psychocultural ritual. Yes, sunbathing naked, lying down, exposed in the fullest sense of the word, has therapeutic, even cathartic qualities that are worth experiencing.
Today we know for sure that The sun affects our physical and emotional health. This is due, to a large extent, to the fact that sunlight provides us with vitamin D. The lack of this vitamin is associated with various mental disorders, including depression. Obviously, this is not about ingesting a monumental amount of sun to fry your skin with ultraviolet rays.
But beyond ensuring your daily dose of sun (which you can check here), sunbathing completely naked is an act of pure naturalness. as it says
:When you sunbathe naked, you are subjecting yourself to the same conditions and to the same star as every creature that has ever crawled or walked in the light of day without wearing underwear. Pleasure is both carnal and extramundane. Nothing that civilization offers you could compete with this.
This ancient rite could be one more resource, among the many urgent ones, to reconnect with that primary facet that is part of our essence. So if you find a corner with some privacy, and ideally in nature, don’t hesitate to take off your clothes, lie down for a few minutes and surrender to the sensoriality that the sun king will awaken in you.
