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.
