sun oneself
Lounge in light
To sun oneself is to sit or lie in sunlight, usually for warmth or to tan: She sunned herself by the pool.
The phrase implies deliberate, leisurely exposure—basking rather than merely being outdoors.
Animals sun themselves too: The cat was sunning herself on the windowsill.
