45 Ways to Live Like an Italian

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

You've heard of Danish hygge and Japan's concept of ikigai, but now it's time to travel to Italy and study the concept of "la dolce vita," or "the sweet life." Learn how to relieve stress and lead a more balanced, joyful way of life using the Italian concept of la dolce vita.

When it comes to self-care, nobody does it quite like an Italian. Italians are renowned worldwide for their ability to savour simple pleasures throughout the course of an ordinary day, a concept known as la dolce vita, or the sweet life. Living a dolce vita doesn't require wealth, status, or owning a villa on the Mediterranean. It only requires you to slow your pace and enjoy the happy moments wherever you find them. And who couldn't use a little more happiness in their life?

If you have ever been to Italy, the transformative nature of the bel paese has certainly wound its way into your soul. But you don't have to visit Italy to live like an Italian or to celebrate life like an Italian.

45 Ways to Live Like an Italian will inspire you to adopt the sweetness of Italy and begin to notice the small daily details that turn ordinary moments into extraordinary experiences, ultimately making your life richer, more enjoyable, and less stressful.

The book focuses on self-care in all facets of your life, including:

  • Food
  • Time
  • Self
  • Relationships
  • Beliefs
  • Lifestyle

This beautifully illustrated gift book makes the perfect present for Italophiles or anyone needing a reminder to slow down and enjoy the sweetness of life.
