languor
Pleasant weary stillness
Languor is a state of pleasant weariness or dreamy relaxation—the feeling of lying in a hammock on a warm afternoon with no desire to move.
It suggests physical lassitude combined with mental tranquility: A summer languor settled over the house.
The word carries sensual or romantic overtones, often describing the lazy contentment after intimacy or indulgence.
Languorous is the adjective: her languorous movements, a languorous afternoon.
