The art of doing nothing... In the midst of another bank holiday weekend, I can’t help but think that there is so much we are told we should be doing, that we almost miss out on one of the most rewarding things we can do for ourselves- having a rest, and doing absolutely nothing (or as little as possible!) I don’t consider this to be laziness, but rather a reward for working hard… we know that work-life balance is important, but how often do we actually say “yes, I will take some time just for me!” Now I know this isn’t always easy, and in some ways you may even feel guilty for saying no to invitations to go here, there and everywhere, but trust me, being unavailable once in a while is not going to do your social life any harm, and in many ways, you will thrive from being more rested. Lounging at home doesn’t have to mean yo drop your style standards either. If anything this is a great excuse to treat yourself to a few luxe goodies which make you feel like you really are being indulgent. This is the time for silk, cashmere and scented candles. Remember that film you friend told you is a ‘must watch’, or that book you bought ages ago and are still to read?, well now is the time! Looking out of the window just now and seeing the rain bouncing of the pavements, I can’t think of anywhere I would rather be than home, sweet home anyway! janedavidson.co.uk/art-nothing/
