A new e-zine takes up where oNLIne left off
For the past three years, Naturist Life International has published an online version of its successful print magazine. Now it is time for that e-zine to step out on its own.
Living Free will continue to focus on living as a naturist, rather than simply focusing on resorts and travel, as most other naturist publications do. We hold that it is not necessary to travel to exotic locations or go to secluded beaches or resorts to enjoy nude living; it can be done at home, in the backyard, around the pool, or on a hike.
We also believe that naturism is about more than recreational activities; it fits into a broader spiritual and philosophical awareness. Naturism is about a search for truth, understanding, and growth; it is about living a better life; it is about nurturing curiosity and spreading knowledge to others.
At the base of our gymnosophy is the belief that the naked human body is inherently decent, beautiful, and dignified. Living Free promotes this view by cultural education, encouraging readers to practice social nudity when reasonable and appropriate. We present the nude body in its true, integral, holistic light. Rather than denying certain parts of the body, we believe that, by placing them in their rightful, God-given context, those who now oppose nudity will be unable to raise a legitimate objection. By sharing our experiences, we also help those who may be struggling to reconcile the naturist philosophy with what society and their prior upbringing has taught them.
We adhere to the 10 tenets of the NLI Credo:
| I | We appreciate all of nature and believe it is an ideal context for nudity. |
| II | EveryBODY is beautiful. |
| III | We are family-oriented. |
| IV | We promote nudity in everyday life, not merely recreation. |
| V | Naturism is more than skin-deep; substantial gymnosophy underlies our nudity. |
| VI | Nudity is not a pretext for lust. |
| VII | We revere tradition while welcoming truly wise change. |
| VIII | We deeply respect religion, without promoting any particular creed. |
| IX | Our nudity is unabashed but not exhibitionist. |
| X | We promote nudity via cultural education and not mere law and politics. |
