Naked Teen At Home
I spent a week at home in the nude, and this is what I learned about my body

I am not a total prude, but I've always possessed a degree of awkwardness about nudity. I can change into swimmers in a communal changing room, but I'll do it as fast as I can with my eyes fixed to the floor.
So when I read that naturists have higher self-esteem than those who keep their clothes on, I decided to spend a week in the nude in the privacy of my own home to see what I could learn. I hoped that my naked experiment would make me more comfortable with my body and its imperfections.
I absolutely gained was a sense of "knowing" about my body. Credit: Stocksy
I worked, slept, cooked, cleaned, and got on with family life minus my clothes. Although I was a little apprehensive about my nudity project, on the whole I really enjoyed it.
There were low points. On one of Sydney's excruciatingly hot days, sweat pooled under my unsupported breasts and my thighs stuck to my synthetic office chair. I was extremely uncomfortable and desperate to cover up. On other days, though, my nudity was liberating and fun. There were even a few moments where I felt profoundly present in my body.
Then, one rainy afternoon, I ran into the backyard to rescue some laundry on the washing line. I'd forgotten I was nude, but the feeling of big bulbous raindrops on my skin was heavenly. It was something I hadn't experienced since childhood, and so joyful that I even sashayed around doing a bit of a dance before dashing back into the house with the laundry basket.
Apart from one accidental FaceTime incident (sorry, Jo!), the only people who saw me naked were my husband, who was amused but had no complaints, and my young daughters, who enjoyed poking my "squishy" tummy. By the end of the week, my nudity seemed to be business as usual.
Did it make me more comfortable with my body? Perhaps.
But what I absolutely gained was a sense of "knowing" about my body, as if I had rekindled a childhood friendship, or come home after a long and arduous journey.
There are legitimate reasons why nudity is good for you. As mentioned, University of London researchers discovered that naturists who took part in an online survey have higher self-esteem than their fully clothed peers. They also had better body image and were happier in general. Although the vast majority of survey participants were men, the positive body image effects extended for women, too.
After spending a week naked at home, the prospect of stripping off in public became less daunting. In fact, when I misunderstood an email about this article and thought that my editor was asking me to go to a nudist beach, I didn't completely baulk at the idea.
So, do naturists agree that being naked in public is an important part of the self-esteem equation?
Jenni Parry, 48, has been a naturist for five years. "People are judged by what they wear; the brand and labels of their clothes," she says. "And the fit: is it too tight, too baggy, hanging too low, showing arse crack, too much cleavage – the list goes on. Without clothes, you are accepted as you are." Parry tells me that naturism has released her from "a vicelike grip" of society's expectations of how she should look.
"Once you are comfortable in your own skin, you own your spot in the world," she says. "And man, do I own that spot! Yes, I'm human, so I have moments [of self-critique]. But they are less often and easier to come out of."
Psychologist Dr Samantha Clarke says that many of us view ourselves though a very critical lens: "We don't look at our body as a whole, we focus on the bits we don't like."
Spending time nude can help us perceive our body as a whole, she explains. "Getting comfortable with your body, and being aware of all the amazing things it does, can really help you embrace its assets.
"Your body isn't who you are," says Clarke. "It's just a vehicle that allows you to move around the world."

LET LOOSE Huge row erupts on Loose Women over Meghan and Harry returning to UK for Jubilee
FRANKIE Bridge has admitted she walks around starkers in front of her kids at home.
The Loose Women star, 33, has described herself, hubby Wayne and their two sons as a "naked family".
Frankie says she doesn't see "an issue" with baring all and says she cannot see a time when she will suddenly start covering up in front of her boys.
"We're quite a naked family, I would say. And I grew up in quite a naked family," Frankie admitted during Monday's episode of the ITV1 show.
"I don't see what the issue is. I wouldn't think, 'Oh now is the time to cover up'.
"I think if [Parker and Carter] started to look uncomfortable or if they started saying, 'Ooh, mummy,' then I would go from them."
Frankie did, however, go on to admit that she has sometimes started covering up in the presence of eldest son Parker, who is eight years old.
She added: "[My kids] will come up to me if I'm naked.
"Parker sometimes, I can see, might feel a bit uncomfortable, so I would cover up. So I just go from their cues.
"But I remember growing up and seeing my parents run to and from the bathroom and I didn't think twice about it. Hopefully I would make them feel comfortable in that way."
Fellow Loose Women panelist Jane Moore then asked what will happen when Parker and his younger brother Carter, six, reach their teenage years.
"I don't think it would bother me but if it bothered them, then I would cover up," Frankie admitted.
Frankie found fame aged just 12 when she landed a place in the pop band S Club Juniors.
She later joined The Saturdays and went on to marry former Premiere League footie ace Wayne Bridge in 2014.
The couple live with their boys and Wayne's parents, Wendy and Mick, in a large house in Surrey.
Last year, Frankie said she enjoys living with her in-laws - who moved in when Parker was a toddler and they sold their own home.
Speaking to The Sun's Fabulous magazine, she admitted: "Everyone is obsessed with them living with us, but I don’t know any different.
"They’ve not always lived with us, but they’ve always been around.
When Wayne was playing football , he was always really busy, so his mum ran things at home for him. When we moved in together, I was really busy too, so I accepted her help.
"I’m not precious about how my washing is hung out or how the dishwasher is stacked – it just means one less job I have to do."
She added: “When we had kids, it was a no-brainer [to have them in the house]. They have a great relationship with their grandparents and my guilt when I leave them is a lot less [than if we had a nanny].
"My nan and grandad looked after us when I was young while my parents worked, and most of my childhood memories are with them."
