Details
by Olga Mecking (Author)
The Dutch people are some of the happiest in the world. Their secret? They are masters of niksen, or the art of doing nothing.
Niksen is not a form of meditation, nor is it a state of laziness or boredom. It's not scrolling through social media, or wondering what you're going to cook for dinner. Rather, to niks is to make a conscious choice to sit back, let go, and do nothing at all.With this book, learn how to do nothing in the most important areas of your life, such as:
- AT HOME: Find a comfy nook and sit. No technology or other distractions.
- AT WORK: Stare at your computer. Take in the view from your office. Close your eyes.
- IN PUBLIC: Forget waiting for the bus, enjoy some relaxing niksen time.
