The Italians call it ‘la dolce far niente’ and January is the perfect opportunity for us Brits to adopt their ethos of taking time to enjoy ‘the sweetness of doing nothing’. This doesn’t mean slobbing around in a onesie but instead taking time to luxuriate in simple pleasures such as being curled up admiring the frosty view outside, preparing a beautiful plate of food, or simply lying back wrapped in a blanket and letting your thoughts drift away.
