For some individuals simply visiting Lupin provides an uplifting spiritual experience. Social nudity is initially about improving a life-long relationship with one's own quite unique body, the only possession on earth truly worth having, whatever shape it's in. A rare experience of unselfconscious relaxation and universal acceptance of human reality is often a surprising bonus to the newly initiated. Besides being personally liberating, experiencing social nudity is also both humanizing and equalizing. Without clothing's message-laden facade people tend to accept one another as the special, sometimes fragile being each truly is.
Mutual vulnerability promotes mutual respect, honesty and trust.
Civilized behavior and open communications seem only natural within such a disarming context. An absence of sexual pressure is fundamental to the naturist experience at Lupin, which has served thousands of families since its founding in 1936. Gawkers may be asked to leave and not return. Though people who meet at Lupin may often form close friendships and sometimes develop intimate relationships, just being nude at Lupin clearly does not signify sexual availability. It's liberating to mind, body and spirit.
