Best Activities to Do Naked

  • Take a nap.
  • Cook a meal.
  • Read a book.
  • Listen to music.
  • Sing and dance.

How to Enjoy Your Naked Day

  1. Pick a date when you don’t have anything to do so you can fully relax and enjoy the day. For most people, this falls on a weekend or holiday, but you can always get naked on a Monday or other random weekday.
    • Look up the weather for that day. You can prepare to blast the heater if it’s cold or the air conditioner if it’s hot.
    • If a whole day at home isn’t an option for you (due to school or work), make the most of the time you have! You can embrace nudity before you leave the house, then strip off your clothes when you return.
  2. Before stripping off your clothes, shut your windows, draw your blinds or curtains, lock your doors, and make sure you’re alone in the house. Being naked in the privacy of your home is the best way to be safe and respectful. If you live with other people, like roommates or family members, find out when they plan to return to avoid an awkward encounter.
    • You can always be naked when you’re alone or in your room, but it’s not okay (or legal) to force anyone to witness it.
    • Unless you have a well-protected backyard, stay inside to avoid being seen by anyone. Most countries have strict laws about nudity, and you can be charged if your neighbor sees you naked inside your home.[1]

  3. If you don’t feel comfortable going full commando, strip down to your underwear to get used to the feeling of wearing fewer clothes. For the full experience, however, you’ll want to be completely nude. Once you’ve stripped down, neatly fold your clothes and place them in an area where you can put them back on quickly.
    • Always have clothing you can throw on quickly in case of an emergency, such as a baggy t-shirt and sweatpants.
  4. It’s important to be hygienic when you’re naked since there isn’t a barrier of clothing protecting your body. Be sure to wash your hands and genitals thoroughly after using the bathroom, and lay down a towel before sitting down on any furniture in common areas, like the living room or the kitchen.
    • Before stripping off your clothes, consider taking a bath or shower to ensure you’re clean.
  5. Almost anything you can do with clothes on, you can do naked! Everyday activities, like cleaning, reading, and watching movies, are a lot more fun when done in the nude. So, treat your escapade like a normal day and see how productive you can be. Here are the best activities to do naked:
    • Take a nap.
    • Cook a meal.
    • Read a book.
    • Paint or draw.
    • Listen to music.
    • Sing and dance.
    • Clean your house.
    • Play video games.
    • Watch TV or a movie.
    • Take a dip in your pool.
    • Garden or mow the lawn.
  6. At the end of the day (or whenever you’ve put your clothes back on), think about how you feel. Was being naked liberating? Did you feel more comfortable? Happier? Is a naked day at home something you’d like to repeat again in the future? If you enjoyed the experience, you might lounge around in your birthday suit more often.
    • Ultimately, spending a naked day at home can be a great way to spice up a normal day. If you don’t love chilling in the nude, however, that’s totally okay! Naturism isn’t for everyone.
  7. If you enjoyed your naked day and want to extend it, try sleeping in the nude. Shedding your clothes can keep your body cooler and more relaxed as you drift off to sleep![2]
    • If you share a room with someone else, be considerate before you bare it all. Talk with your roommate about your preferred sleeping arrangement to find out if they would have an issue with you being naked in the same room.

What is Home Nudist Day?

  1. Home Nudist Day celebrates body positivity and practicing nudism. It’s an unofficial holiday held on August 15th that encourages people to be nude in their homes. The purpose of Home Nudist Day is to promote self-love, body acceptance, and the feeling of freedom in a private space. Being nude can help you appreciate your body and boost your self-esteem, so consider celebrating and stripping down at home![3]
    • It might take some time, but learn to love and accept your body—everyone is made differently, and there’s no reason to be ashamed of the way you look!
    • Life and recovery coach Kamila Tan says to “give your body a hug when you’re naked [to feel more confident]...and remember all of the wonderful things your body has done for you,” such as sustaining you as you walk, play, run, make meals, give birth, rescue someone, lift weights, and so on.[4]
