Are You Fighting a Substance Abuse Disorder?

Here is a look into my personal story

Are You Fighting a Substance Abuse Disorder? You aren’t alone!

My name is Ryan and I live in recovery from a substance abuse disorder, specifically alcohol.

It took me 20 years of heavy drinking daily to say that out loud just about 6 years ago.  

But once I did, I could face it. With out it, I just kept on struggling in silence, holding my secret to myself and playing life as if I had it under control.  Thing is, I did not have it under control. Beer and Crown Royal had me at their will.

Go Be You and Only You

You only get one life to live so live it on your terms.

Go be you!

It is all too often that I see people try to control other peoples lives. It is even more so with the all of the social media platforms that keep popping up.

Trolls. They are fucking everywhere.

Some of them you know, some you have never met.

But they all have one thing in common. They like to make comments that make you doubt yourself, or say things that are downright disrespectful.

It is a shame.

These people stop others from living the lives they want to live because subconsciously we want to impress people. Or worse, we don’t live our true lives because we don’t want people to talk shit about us.

Everyday we are faced with challenges that push us, pull us, or make us want to simply give up.

Act Naturally

Two stepsisters inherit their father’s nudist resort and have to choose whether to run the business or sell it.

Act Naturally

I was scrolling through my Amazon Firestick the other day and I came across a movie that had a cover picture that said “no shoes no shirt no problem” as it covered up the backsides of a group of people standing there looking in the other direction.

Of course, I was intrigued so I clicked on the preview for a movie called Act Naturally. I won’t go through the movie as you can see the trailer here.

While the movie didn’t get good ratings on Rotten Tomato I will tell you I enjoyed the movie for one simple reason: it is a realistic portrayal of what non-nudist (called textiles) think of nudist, and what happens when you visit a nudist resort if you aren’t comfortable.

I found it quite comical from the two estranged sisters disgusted by the older men walking by, to staring at penis’s and their udder fear when being around everyday people who aren’t wearing clothes.

Medical Marijuana and Nudism

Enjoying the benefits of nudity and marijuana

Medical Marijuana and Nudism

What does medical marijuana and nudism have in common? They are both good for your soul, spirit, and pain management (in my humble opinion). Relaxation, stress relief, and all natural are three main components of both.

Marijuana users carry around a stigma much like being a nudist does. Many people don’t understand it; therefore, they just simply label people as “stoners” and all they want to do is get high. While that is true for many, marijuana also possess many medical benefits that now being researched more.

I am a Proud Bisexual Male Nudist

I am not a fan of labels.

I think labels try to confine people to a box, therefore, if you are in a box you should think and act like everyone else. This helps to dehumanize people, or automatically discount their ideas and thoughts because they aren’t in your box.

So why did I just go against everything I said and label myself, and put myself in a box? Because I am proud of who the hell I am , and you should be too! That is all that matters in this life.

How Do I Start Being a Nudist?

Quick “start being a nudist” guide to help kickstart your new clothes free journey

How Do I Start Being a Nudist?

When I have conversations with non-nudist I often get a response like “sounds cool but I don’t want people to see my body”, “I am xx (old, over weight, stretch marks…) no one wants to see me” or “I could never go in front of people naked” all the way down to “I don’t even know where to start”.

These are common and have heard them for 20+ years, so if you are curious about it and have said something like this you aren’t alone.

Struggling with Your Mental Health?

Is it Time for you to Cowboy Up and to put your sh*tkickers on and go to work

Ryan. a nudist and owner/blogger from everydaynudist.com hanging out in Spokane WA.

Struggling with Your Mental Health?

Is depression or anxiety (or any other mental health diagnosis) whipping your ass day-in-day-out and you can’t find the motivation you used to have to be productive? Feel like sleeping all day, or not even getting out of bed?

That is okay you aren’t alone. There are millions of people just like you. Some better off, some the same, some way worse. I don’t know your situation, or the entire surroundings of how you feel, but can tell you that I live with major depression and have for the past 15 years or so. I know your feelings.

Cover Your Mouth Not Your Body

While the pandemic may require you to cover your mouth, you should free your body.

Ryan, founder/blogger of everydaynudist.com in Spokane Washington making sure he is wearing a mask to “cover your mouth”. However, the rest of the human body shouldn’t be covered. #normalizenudity

Cover Your Mouth Not Your Body

In a pandemic world everyone has gone to covering their faces to better protect themselves. However, I propose that we cover our faces and not our bodies.

Most people I have met in the nudist community find it liberating to be free of clothes and I certainly feel the same way. There is something about removing a restricting piece of clothing to allow the body full freedom of movement. Also, there is something about going against that “society” says is wrong and living life on my terms, under my rules and not really caring if it offends people and their beliefs. NOTE: I am not saying I go around nude in places where it is not appropriate (at least now a days that I am sober) or when there isn’t consent between parties, that is just wrong.
