Understanding the illusion
Being body positive means we begin to break down and break through society’s insidious and warped view of the human body. Firstly, we must start to become aware of the images we’re being sold by the ‘beauty’ industry. We must learn to be discerning so that the pressures of the media begin to bear less weight as we awaken to the media’s stronghold and learn to detach from it.
Let us talk about social media number fame.
I often get people who write to me and say you have x number of followers, you are famous.
I think to myself how every day I go to work. I pay the bills, I parent and hustle.
I think to myself as I write to people that actually have a name in this world for training, things that inspire me or similar and they do not respond to me.
I think to myself how I have traveled throughout the world and nobody recognises me or stops me.
I think to myself how I wrote a book it sells on amazon, yet I have not made a profit and many don’t know that.
I think to myself how I have written to brands for sponsorship and support only to be declined because i don’t fit them.
I think to myself how I have written to instagram for a blue tick for my account, only to be declined and told im not recognized enough as someone of value and social significance to be given a blue tick.
I think how I create and share all my content for free here.
I think to myself how I do this for love and share my journey for healing and helping others and how the number makes people miss that and not see me.
So again the word fame doesn’t mean a number on social media.
When we look at people here we’ve lost perspective.
A number is not fame. Social media fame is not fame.
I am and many of us are just a simply humans connecting to others and not recognised by many and known by few. (Well thats me anyway).
Please do not get lost in a world of instant gratification thinking that another is famous or has it better because the likes and numbers, as the likelihood is they are simply walking side by side you just, like me trying their best to share and help others without any additional benefits.
Many with no more grace or ease. Just simply old fashion hard working souls hoping for better tomorrows, working for better tomorrows, as they are chasing their dreams too.
What do numbers make you think?
Do they make you assume something about someone?

I believe that being defined by our bodies is what creates the unhealthy relationship between the mind and body in the first place. Most of the time, we become defined by our bodies rather unconsciously, from the moment we enter into this world in this form. Whether it’s because of cultural upbringing, societal conditioning, systematic patriarchal norms, personal experiences or pop culture, we are conditioned to see ourselves in a way that puts us at odds with our bodies. From unhealthy obsession to complete disconnect, being defined by the physical form can manifest itself in various ways.
How have you defined your body or being limited by definitions?
What’s been your fav workout or yoga so far?
Any suggestions for yoga and workout or goals you are working on?
Have you tried the 100 and 250 tiers nude training on p@treon (link in social)?
Nudity can be raw, vulnerable, honest, sensual, body love for desire and many other things. I think I chose nude art because of those reasons but also that nudity is natural and near nature, it's interesting, different and beautiful. It's mininalistic, doesn’t encourage materialism. In nude photos and videos you can see shapes in yoga poses, lines of the body. The light and shadow on the skin. In nude we are genuine, not hidden, not covered, but just as we are as most unprotected, open. ❤️
For me training nude I have built more self love and confidence. Learnt better mind muscle connection for training and realized the only thing stopping me is my thoughts. The only thing that challenges me about my body is my thoughts and the weight of others thoughts. Each time I train and share nudity, I learn who I am more and shed who I am not.
What will you learn?
Have you seen the art with @audriasana & our workouts, pole dance vidoes, yoga flows and more?

If you’re curious to explore social nudity, would like to rediscover your own nudity and body and want to experience the liberation and empowerment that comes along with it, I would highly recommend attending a reputable nudist/naturist club, event or nude beach. Explore these ranges of emotions and curiosity for yourself…and always remember to be respectful and act within the boundaries given for the space that has been created. Gauge the intention of the event, space and setting. You can also join me on top tiers @patreon to workout and do yoga together nude dm for link or link in bio

Escape the prison of your mind and join me at https://www.p@treon.com/openheartscanunite (link in socials or take out @)
My naked yoga classes on p@treon (link in bio to join) are a prime example that you can practice non-sexual nudity and have it empower and liberate you…and they are a great success because there is a mutual understanding that it is not a sexually-charged event so as to create boundaries and safety.
Just like nudity does not imply sex, it also does not automatically imply attraction either. You can most definitely be naked with other people and not feel an attraction toward any of them. On the other hand, if you do happen to find yourself attracted to someone, you can acknowledge and express your attraction without making someone feel objectified and/or sexualised.
Join me for my first retreat
A few spots left. Come join and train with me in person for a retreat of a life time. All levels welcome, for men and women. Just come as you are. Raw, vulnerable, curious and with a wide open heart. I cannot wait to see you! https://startyouradzenture.com/retreat/zion-august-25-28-2022-3-night-4-day/
Michelle from @audriasana will be our photographer at the retreat an amazing human. Connect with us and train with both of us.
it really is in the way in which you conduct yourself and approach others that matter. This makes all the difference. It is not about whether or not you’re allowed to be attracted to others in a non-sexual social nude setting. As I’ve reiterated and have hopefully made clear by now…attraction is natural, normal and even expected.
It comes down to exercising discernment in ALL situations, especially when there is social nudity involved. It is wise to understand the vulnerability that is still latent around nudity for many. It may be someone’s first experience with social nudity….or somebody with some form of trauma around sexual abuse may be present, for example,….you just never know. So it is wise to exercise the utmost respect, compassion and sensitivity.
Good morning happy Monday
Creating with @audriasana is such a gift.
This is our Miami shoot have you seen it at https://www.p@treon.com/openheartscanunite? Link in socials to join or take out @ and copy and paste
Love someone because their soul inspires you, not because you are interested in the relief from loneliness and companionship they can provide.
You can be attracted to someone without necessarily sexualising them. It is possible to admire someone’s beauty or energy without wanting to have sex with them. Even if you are having sexual thoughts about someone (because, yes, sometimes we have these thoughts and this can be natural too), you don’t necessarily need to impulsively project these thoughts as if uncontrollable.
A gift. Want to improve your splits. I am giving away my active splits program. Life is about rising by lifting others and I want to thank you for all your support. Enjoy and blessings Rhy https://vimeo.com/r/3l7m/SEl4b1V4M0 sign into vimeo on your computer and then click link or copy past x

3 Morning Meditation Flows joined - 9 mins long. It was shot in Germany by an American photographer and edited professionally. The location was a farm house where you can see me convert, twist, turn, fully nude and uncensored framed all angles. Feeling like I was wrapped in the arms of freedom and my homeless soul finding home again within. Join me in the farm house for yoga 🧘♂️
A new article on Elephant Journal for all those that asked does yoga make for better sex https://www.elephantjournal.com/2022/06/the-truth-about-why-practicing-yoga-makes-for-better-sex-rhyanna-watson/
The truth is, yoga can create better sex but not in the way the world thinks; it is on a much deeper level than people think. Everything is connected.
A fancy yoga pose may create fun but the truth is, great sex is about creating a great connection to yourself and the person you are with.
Yoga is a great example of how we can look at self-care and how self-care is what truly creates better sex. And that is what yoga is about: self-care. So, yes, it does link to better sex—when practiced mindfully.
Yoga is a form of self-care that helps us to work with our inner world, our inner voice, and gives us a position to feel connected to ourselves, get to know ourselves, and feel beautiful in our own skin whilst enjoying our own company and being more compassionate and realistic with ourselves.
Attraction is not the problem. The problem seems to lie, firstly, in the way in which we perceive attraction and how society’s systemic and overt sexualisation of nudity seems to imply that nudity demands objectification…and, secondly, the way in which we approach the matter and act upon it.
I am struggling to understand this world right now and all that is existing. It overwhelms me to the core I am raising my daughter in these times. However I am learning one thing, everyone is doing something that helps for better tomorrows. So I want to take the time to thank you all when so many of us remind us what we are doing wrong. We are all trying and you deserve to be thanked for your efforts.
'To the person who uses metal straws to save fish but consumes animals, I’d like to say thank you. To the vegan who isn’t aware of our homelessness problem, thank you. To the climate change activists who aren’t attentive to fast fashion, thank you. To the girl who gives her old clothes to the disadvantaged but isn’t educated on sex trafficking, thank you. To the guy who picks up rubbish on his way home from a surf but isn’t well-informed about male suicide rates, thank you. To the students that stand up for bullying but are unaware of the constant domestic violence epidemic, thank you.
To the peace activists, feminists, animal adopters, teachers, volunteers, foster carers, recyclers, givers, doers and believers, I say thank you.
We are all on a different path and we all see through different eyes. Current world issues that you are passionate about, aren’t always what other people are trying to change… and that’s okay.
It’s not everyone’s job to save every part of the world but it is everyone’s responsibility to thank every person who is doing THEIR part to save the world. Don’t critic, just appreciate. Don’t judge, just educate. We’re all trying our best.
Thank you.

Given that so many of us may be new to social nudity (and have previously been conditioned to perceive nudity as sexual), I understand that this re-programming is a process. We’re having to completely rewire our neural networks that have been hardwired and firing in the same way for our entire lives! We’re also going against the grain here…but we all have to start somewhere. That’s the beauty about non-sexual social nudity and the naked yoga classes I offer on p@treon…it gives you the opportunity to grasp, experience and embody this.
The more social nudity you integrate into your life, the more normalised nudity becomes and the less likely you are to be getting erections at the mere sight of a naked person…because we start to understand that nudity, in and of itself, is not necessarily sexual and is, indeed, very natural.
Many asked to purchase and practice with me here. This is a middle splits class that will have you on fire. Condition your body and prepare your legs for awareness and strength for middle splits. Learn to activate and strengthen your glutes, hamstring, quads, and hip flexors, so they do the work and allow your other muscles to stretch and relax safely to avoid injury.
This is the type of practices you can join me regularly on patreon top tiers. Practicing in the privacy and comfort of your own home, in your own time and at your own convenience, with online naked yoga, fitness classes. (Link in bio or DM for Patreon link over a years worth of movement)
My online naked classes help you redefine your relationship with your body and improve your sense of body image whilst experiencing the expansive and infinite benefits that yoga has to offer.
I also included art on both tiers from artists I've worked with raw, uncensored and beautiful.
Whether you’re looking to practice once a week, twice a week or everyday; go at your own pace and find a flow that works for you, as you now have the option to watch the classes back at any time and replay them til your heart’s content!
Let me know how you go love to hear if you enjoyed this class?
One of the things I’m grateful for here is I can be a real human in many ways. I don’t have to be one way. Clothes or no clothes. 1 angle or not another. Teacher of movement but not sensual. I can be all of that and that is the truest gift in life to be fully human with others.
I no longer have to be a human with a stigma or have to hide parts of myself to be decent. I can be a human living my life and sharing it with like minded souls.
This online offline world has created beautiful places for us to learn and grow together around the world.
When I opened the 100 and the 250 tiers on patreon (link in bio to join) it was scary. Showing all of me getting truly open and real with who I have always been with others isn't easy. I have limited number as the online world is for me about a community. I want to build the community and create a loving space and grow it too. However in the process I need to be mindful not everyone is so kind and sees the same. For me this is about building a community of healing and humanness for others it is simply not.
Please know I love when you ask me questions & tell me things about you. I want to hear. I am not here for a number I am here to be human like you and hope we can find our way better in the world together.
However, doing this has been truly hard sharing more of what the world judges me for, misappropriates and disrespects me for and says I am pörn for. I have had much bullying and disrespect but you all make it worth it, who get it. As a soft person like myself who feels everything, it is never easy in a hard world. It is never easy living your dream in a world that doesnt get it. It is never easy not living your dream in this world either or living someone else's expectations and not feeling happy. We all struggle.
On the 100 and 250 tier I’m able to teach and show art that allows me to be all angles and be unapologetically myself. Like this photo without having to cover parts of me and all angles. I love seeing the body from different angles. I love seeing how it looks, what muscles work, what muscle may not be working, what parts of the body look like from different angles and realness. Like if I was in an art class or at a sauna in Austria you just be human and nobody tells you how to be. The body in these spaces is seen for art and a tool for life.
We all also know the body to have sexuality (we have pleasure and create children) but it isn't the only thing a naked body is and it becomes more about us understanding sexuality is apart of life not darkness. More about understanding the body to use for all aspects of life and open the dark places to the light so we can connect better to ourselves and others and live more healthily.
I know it’s hard for everyone to understand and I know everyone views the world differently and wants things differently. But I want to thank this community (you all) for being here and growing with me. It’s life changing and I’m grateful for you all and all you give and all we share and talk about.
I do this on my own all posts, writings (that is why there is spelling mistakes haha). Most videos and photos except when I am blessed with a photographers art which is rare for me and has been such a gift when I have worked with others like Michelle and Kelelah @audriasana
It is a lot of work to do this and know it is hard for many to understand that but its never been simple to create or share and the hours that goes into it is my heart and soul to you all. I also get nervous still sharing hoping I will receive love back and people will appreciate it.
I know also with technology it can be difficult and things aren’t always how we want or the right program etc, but im grateful that there is this space over no space to connect. I wish I could make everything perfect and ideal for everyone and fix all the problems but I cannot. So what I wish for more is we can all walk side by side with love and respect in our differences showing kindness as we go.
You are all magic
Blessings Rhy
