Naked Meditation: Everything You Need To Know
Ever heard of naked mediation?
Itâs certainly an unorthodox practice!
But it also comes with some surprising benefits.
So in this ultimate guide to naked meditation, youâll learn what it is, what it isnât, and how to get the most out of meditating in the nude!
Letâs get startedâŚ

What Is Naked Meditation?
Well, itâs pretty basic:
You meditate in the nude.
But why?
When youâre meditating, youâre trying to gain a deeper insight of yourself and who you are.
To be honest, in a practical sense, there isnât much difference between meditating normally and meditating in the nude â aside from your clothing of course.
But thereâs definitely a few things to consider:
You can practice it the right way, or the wrong way â which is why we created this guide to naked meditation.
One of the main benefits of this practice is that if you lack confidence with your body image, naked meditation could help you overcome that.
Now if you struggle with this, we understand â and you donât need to be ashamed.
In the US, statistics show that 30 million people will struggle with an eating disorder during their lifetime â thatâs a shocking statistic.
So if you are body conscious, itâs better to go slow and try this for shorter periods of time until you feel comfortable with yourself.
Connecting The Mind & Body
With meditation, your breath connects you to the world.
So when you practice meditation with no clothes on, you can harness this to connect your mind and body better.
This way, thereâs no unnecessary barriers separating you from the world youâre experiencing.
It can deepen your experience of meditation.
Remove Physical Restraints
Physically, naked meditation also allows you to move more freely.
During meditation, people often wear loose, baggy clothing anyway so theyâre not restricted.
By practicing in the nude, you may be able to switch positions and even sit for longer periods of time.
Now compare this to wearing tight clothing during a meditation session â you may feel stiff and restricted.
Note: If you feel physically restricted, you may also feel mentally restricted too!
You might be holding things back subconsciously, stiff with doubts, frustrations, and problems.
So naked meditation may help to liberate you from these problems, helping you find a better flow whilst meditating.
Overcoming Your Inhibitions
When it comes to the thought of naked meditation, do you feel comfortable?
Maybe youâre a bit embarrassed?
Or too shy to even try it?
The truth is, these are all self-doubts.
Theyâre natural â but theyâre still inhibitions.
And inhibitions start with the mind.
Naked meditation may help you to remove these inhibitions:
Creating a stronger state of mind where youâre no longer dragged down by negative states of embarrassment, shame or discomfort.
Feeling Comfortable In Your Own Skin
This is the beauty of naked meditation:
Is there anything more pure and free than learning how to become comfortable, confident and content in your own skin?
Weâre often trying to show off with fancy clothes, the latest brands and over-priced accessories.
On average, most Americans spend more on shoes, jewellery and watches than higher education!
But have you ever considered why that is?
When people wear fancy brands, itâs often about ego.
Weâre trying to impress our friends.
Weâre trying to validate our own success and prove to others that weâre high value people.
And itâs a way of gaining acceptance from others.
Yet when you meditate naked, youâre stripping that ego away â which is actually something incredibly positive.
What Naked Meditation Is Not
This isnât some carnal way to sensualize your meditation sessions.
Just like any other form of meditation, you need to approach this with an open mind.
Yes, naked meditation can help you release sensual energy and even boost your labido.
But actually, itâs about cherishing the raw human form:
