The blog will pick a word of the week, to share & explore the selected word. Here’s an expression for the word – Dolce far niente (Italian).
The Sweetness Of Doing Nothing by Sophie Minchilli explores the southern Italian philosophy of Dolce Far Niente to inspire us to find pleasure & peace in the everyday. How often do we focus on being in the moment, on doing nothing? Whether it’s sitting at a cafe watching the world go by, whiling away the hours with our loved ones or being immersed in nature at the beach taking in the sunset, these seemingly ordinary moments are the ones that bring the most happiness & highlight the joy in living.
Rather than treating idleness as laziness, dolce far niente is a mindful way of living. The Sweetness Of Doing Nothing shares an incredible philosophy with amazing advice to motivate us to savour life’s precious moments. Sometimes, just our presence is enough.
