STEPHANE DESCHENES, Naturist Resort Owner/Podcast Host (12-15-21)

STEPHANE DESCHENES, owner of the Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park in Canada, and the host of the podcast, "The Naturist Living Show", will join us to discuss his business, the overall world of naturism, and to dispel a few myths about being a naturist that can be helpful to all. 

FROM HIS PODCAST PAGE:

"Since 2008, The Naturist Living Show has been presenting topics related to naturism and discussing issues of interest to naturists. (nudism/nudist in some countries) While we obviously cover issues related to nudity, naturism is about much more than being naked so we cover topics related to self-esteem, body-image, body-acceptance, and living in a more natural way. The podcast is produced by Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park in Ontario, Canada.'"

FROM HIS RESORT'S WEBSITE:

"Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park is a year-round naturist park near Toronto in Canada where the entire family can experience traditional naturist values in a modern setting. We are nestled among the natural wilderness of the Ontario Greenbelt and Oak Ridges Moraine. Our varied landscape includes open spaces, forests, ponds, streams and a small lake. We also have many recreational facilities. Our clubhouse provides year-round amenities including saunas and a whirlpool. Bare Oaks offers day-use memberships and seasonal campsites but also welcomes visitors and travellers.

​Some might use the terms nudist and nudism to describe us and what we do. But we prefer naturist and naturism because our creed is so much more than just taking your clothes off. It is a life philosophy with physical, psychological, environmental, social and moral benefits. We go beyond a mere recreational pursuit and promote ethical naturism. We endeavour to live a naturist life and nudity is key to body acceptance and an integral part of our naturist philosophy. As such, we are not clothing-optional. Clothing is worn only for protection. But we do give new visitors a chance to adjust."
