It is July so it is only to be expected, but when it is uncomfortable even being naked? Well, let's just say "Mother Nature needs a Snickers!".
The last two weeks started in the 80s, nice and comfortable with a few days of cooling evening showers...until last Friday when the temperatures began to climb. By Sunday, it was extremely humid and 98 degrees, with a heat index of 105...at that point not only did it hurt to wear clothes but being naked meant dripping with sweat! There's a reason we nudists always carry a towel with them and this past week has been proof.
So, all the drapes are drawn, the ceiling fans turned on and floor fans to keep the air moving...and the house is a comfortable, dry, 80 degrees again. The beauty of it being to hot to go out and mingle with the textile world has meant a long period of being nude at home. That time has been well-utilized in getting grounded and finding my center again, as well as allowing me to spend happy hours in research.
If I could say anything important to any casual reader who finds this blog, it would be that spending time nude doing the same everyday things that one does each day clothed, means one can really breathe and relax into what needs to be done with much less stress on the emotional and physical body. Allowing your skin to breathe freely will reduce blood pressure, calm stress and anxiety, and really allow complete relaxation, and sleeping naked reinforces that "feel good" mood.
