unselfconsciously
Free of self-awareness
Without awareness of or concern for how one appears to others.
To do something unselfconsciously is to act naturally, free from the inhibition that comes with feeling watched or judged: She danced unselfconsciously, lost in the music.
The word often carries positive connotations—suggesting authenticity or childlike freedom from social anxiety.
