LINK How getting naked in a German sauna helped me come to terms with my body | Dazed Beauty
German spa culture requires nudity in the saunas. No underwear, no swimsuits. Just your skin and whatever hair and tattoos you might have on it. A towel is required to lay on the sauna benches, but wearing anything else is strictly verboten. When it comes to this particular brand of self-care, part of the adventure is letting go… of everything. But for an expat like me, who has certain hang-ups about their body, this can prove highly challenging.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Once again, someone has learned that the reason to stay clothed and covered is SHAME. We have been taught that the body is dirty, and we have been taught to care what others think of our looks. Maybe the reason that nudist beaches & resorts (in the USA) are predominately older people is that with age comes wisdom; the wisdom of "it doesn't matter".
