A totally unexpected wild swim/skinny dip in a secluded mountain lake in Snowdonia. I didn't have any of my equipment with me but I couldn't miss this opportunity...
The woohoos shows u had a good time 😀👍
I love that more and more people are wild swimming!! It's given me my life back!
Me too! It helps my nervous system issues so much 😅 what did it do for you? I would love to hear if you want to share x
I started swimming in alpine lakes 8 years ago, then almost daily in the Salish Sea in 2020. My "terminal" diagnosis was in 2004 and while I have one stubborn tumor, I've had no new cancer since I got in the salty water!@@ShaktiSuzie
That's AMAZING! So glad to hear that. I'm about to start/continue my podcast and would love people on like you to share their stories. If you're up for it let me know your email and let's chat 😊
That answers the question "what equipment do I need to go wild swimming?" Love it :-)
Haha, well I have a video covering those things, however it can be done with nothing, just less time in the water etc to make sure you stay warm. The brisk walk after helped!
Such a nice upbeat and uplifting video, I hope more people get out into nature and take a dip! Well done...
Thank you my love 💙 thanks for always encouraging me to be free and remove my self limitations one by one ✨️
Thank you. I thoroughly enjoyed that.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful!!!😊
Thank you! 😊
@@ShaktiSuzie most welcome, it was a fab video. X
Lovely
Lovely place .... This is the best feeling of freedom after a hike to go for skinny swimming , just love how refreshed and connected I feel . 👍
Yes me too! Absolutely love it, more connected to nature and myself 🩵
Enjoy the moment!
Yes, I was definitely present in that cold water!
Skinny dipping is the only way to swim. I've never tried a mountain lake like that one, I would like to but I don't think its going to happen. Lovely video.
Never say never, I didn't expect it. Mountain lakes in winter can actually be a perfect place to try because they're often secluded. Obviously take care 🙂
Fabulous! I once hiked naked round Moel Siabod in Snowdonia. As for skinny dipping, haven’t ventured that far as yet but I know the feeling of the cool November air all over was quite invigorating. And a great feeling of total freedom!
Oh it's gorgeous up there and different in all different seasons - I love it 🤍 we'd live there if it wasn't so wet all the time! Let me know when you give skinny dipping a go x
Beautiful
Thank you 😊
'You can leave your hat on' 🎶 😘
I'm singing that song now!
@ShaktiSuzie 🤗 love your positive vibe, Suzie, an easy sub because I just love warm people. Im looking forward to watching more of your channel. Much love x
Very beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you 😊
The spontaneity is what makes ‘wild’ swimming. No equipment needed. While I will normally keep a very small towel in my bag when walking, it is easy to air-dry on most days with a quick run-around. It is also the purity of the relationship with nature, being enveloped in the water, that means that entering the water naked is the only choice for me. Casting away false modesty, embarrassment and negative feelings about the body turn every swim into a truly joyful experience, on equal terms with nature.
Yes yes and yes, all of what you said! I wish we could all do this together and share the joy! Perhaps I'll start a group 🤔
Naked anywhere in an isolated area is a lot of fun. Full water contact is liberating !
For swimming, you don't need any equipment.
Exactly!
While holidaying in Scotland from Australia, winter of 2020, I skinny dipped in the River Garry, amazing feeling of cold, fresh water.
Wow that sounds amazing. I can't wait to go and explore Scotland and swim in the beautiful waters there 😍
I wish there was a place near where I live that I could skinny dip. It is something I have always wanted to try. Sadly there are always people around the water where I live and very little public land with water on it.
I feel you on that! It's the same where I live, this was after a ReWilding retreat I ran so I was in a secluded place. On my next retreat we will skinny dip together so come and join! A tip is to go really really early to a place where there are usually people or find a steep river bank where people won't go. Those are the way I've done it occasionally at home and it's very worth trying to find a way! Drop me your email if you want to have details of retreats. Good luck with the swim - I'm cheering you on 💧
@@ShaktiSuzie There used to be a place not that far away where it would be possible, but they made an Olympic whitewater area and blocked off the water to the swimming hole.
And in your country, nudity is forbidden?
@@dominiquetamer5138 Where I live is very conservative. In some cities / states public nudity it is more acceptable.
Must admit that I enjoy the occasional skinny dip myself. Until you've tried it, you'll never experience the feeling. However, apart from never doing it in a freezing mountain lake, I've never done it wearing a beanie either..!!
Hahaha I thought it added to the outfit 😅 It's gotta be done, Mountain lake is one of my new favourite skinny dipping types! Where do you do it?
@@ShaktiSuzie in the sea. 😀
love it always fun with someone though x
Yes, I loved it when Sean and I did this together in Bulgaria. I'm gunna try and get him to join me next time I go 😁 Have you found places you can skinny dip near where you live?
Snowdonia is also one of the sodorish places 🇬🇧❤
What does that mean? I'm intrigued x
Well what that means is that wales looks so much like the island of sodor in thomas and friends because on the island of sodor they got hills mountains and country’s and valleys quite similar look to wales and snowdonia that what I mean the sodorish place 🇬🇧x@@ShaktiSuzie
I seeeee, well its certainly beautiful 😍
It is and tell me about it 😍@@ShaktiSuzie
Beautiful is the word 😍🇬🇧@@ShaktiSuzie
Pity we couldn’t see her exit the water
Well that's just reserved for the camera man and any passers by 🤣🙈
Beautiful Snowdonia .... but no snow ..... nothing wrong with a fresh dip .....
Yes it had been recently snowy and had thawed. There was some snow on the peaks still though and so some of the lakes were ice melts. It was freezing 🥶 😁
Folks who’ve never tried it will never understand. How cold was the water? Cheers!
Spot on! I can't get enough of it, my dream is to live somewhere I can do this every day! I think around 6 degrees, but that's just a guess from measuring previous water temps and time of year x
Let's go skinny dipping ❤😊 I'd be extremely pleased to swim with you.
Where do you live? I want to start a group for sure!
They say it’s less cold after you go underwater.
I'll have to take note of the difference tomorrow x
since becoming a garden nudist and gaining confidence, accidentally giving neighbours a show when they turned up unexpectedly then this is the next step. I'm not sure about water that cold, but hang on... isn't that what it's all about?
I'm cheering you on over here - good work on the garden nudity - I love that too! Yes the cold water does wonders for your health, its been the only thing that gave me relief over the last 2 years with chronic fatigue 😩 💙
I was disappointed you didn’t invite me
I didnt invite anyone on purpose - solo spontaneous skinny dipping is my jam!
I'll never understand the utility of swimsuits and the pleasure it could bring to wear them.
I know, it feels soooooo good in the water with nothing on, it's a TOTALLY different experience. I'm going to hunt out some more nudist beaches on holiday 🤔
Nice channel. And my god your beautiful.
There is no pleasure in wearing them.
It’s not that there’s pleasure in using them, it’s just that there’s extreme displeasure with others seeing their bodies nude.
Nude women massage
What's the lake called?
I'm not sure, it wasn't even a proper path, I'll try and find out on my map x
so same questionI ask at the lake. Is the wooly hat a bage of Im a wild swimmer
Haha well I think it's more of a practical item. Keeping your head warm when your body is cold is important and helps me stay in longer x
❤
Thanks for the love ❤️
The only way to be at one with nature. Pity that so few experience it in their lifetimes.
Totally agree! It's incredible. Going to find somewhere here in Portugal to make some nude art next 😁
@@ShaktiSuzie Sounds great. I used to be a life model 30 years ago and loved every minute of it.
I just looked at your Facebook. We have too much in common! I explanted 23 year old breast implants in 2016, when a friend shared a website about breast implant illness. Getting those things removed was the beginning of my healing!
Yes yes yes! Good work! It's incredible isn't it how this is happening to so many women, they're 100% bad for us (kinda obvious when you think about plastic in our body), and yet it's still going untold as if it isn't happening! I have a blog post on it too if you're interested. I would love to hear your story over a cuppa or zoom if we're far apart if you fancy that?x Here is the blog if you wanna read more: www.suzieford.com/blog/could-my-breast-implants-be-killing-me
Nice and beautiful lady..... Wish I was as lucky as water of the lake
Thank you 😊
Yup I could get into that
You should, its amazing!
They should ban blurred edits! 😀😀😀
Haha yes it would be nice if we could all be ok with people showing their body, maybe the world wouldn't be so messed up then!
I want to start doing the same but going to ware feet protection
Yes usually I wear surf shoes but on this occasion it was a spontaneous dip so I had nothing, literally nothing 😂
I glorify sin as the pinnacle of my personal growth and self-discovery. Every forbidden act is a triumph over the shackles of oppression and an expression of my innermost desires and passions. In its sinful splendor I recognize the essence of my human nature and the immeasurable power of my own freedom. By celebrating sin, I embrace the complete beauty of my existence and rise above the narrow confines of morals and conventions.
But why? Why go in that freezing water?😬😅
It's sooooo good for you that's why 😊 you can't imagine how amazing the nature is too!
Just try it one day, and you'll understand.
1:59 Suzie is naked.
My third leg works better in water with no swimming suit to hold it back.
A mutual love of nude dipping then!
I really enjoy naked freediving. I don't go super deep but it is a wonderful experience. I have four friends that I go with. The first time I went I was very self conscious, but once the bikini came off, it never went back on!
Absolutely love this! I would love to try free diving and even better if it's naked wow! Where do you do this? Do you fancy a fifth friend to do it with? 😊
@@ShaktiSuzie Looking at your channel, you are no stranger to naked swimming! I love it! I live in Kentucky, so I am pretty limited here, although I have been known to do some free diving at Lake Cumberland. One of the friends I mentioned has a nice boat there and we spend a lot of summer time on it, freediving or not. We have to travel to Bahamas for "real" freediving, and those trips are getting expensive!
Yeh I can imagine that's expensive. Well if you go for it again, keep me posted, I'm really open to being led somewhere to try free-diving soon 😀 I've been doing this even before it was a cool thing to do (wild swimming I mean) and the naked part was even more crazy to most people back then. I'm the same with nude photography and yoga, it's all really helped me love myself and my body as I am ❤️
@@ShaktiSuzie I just sent you an email on your site
Nice hat
Big smile and big booty ❤❤
Thank you 🤪
@@ShaktiSuzie you’re welcome gorgeous
@@ShaktiSuzie You do have a cute butt.
@@geovanyrosario6197 Suzie does have a cute butt. And I wish it wasn't blurred here. Suzie said I can talk about her butt and she's okay with it.
Not really swimming though is it!
I didn't say it was 🤪
Will you marry me? Queen
I think you'll have to get in the queue I'm afraid 🤣👑💍

Exactly, in fact, it holds you back!
Naked😢
WTF
