languorousness

Pleasant weary indolence

Languorousness is a state of pleasant, dreamy weariness—the quality of being languid or listless in an agreeable way.

The word suggests unhurried ease rather than exhaustion: the languorousness of a summer afternoon, She stretched with catlike languorousness.

It carries connotations of sensuality or indolence, often deliberately cultivated rather than merely felt.
