Lost Art of Doing Nothing

We have lost the knack of zoning out, kicking back, and slacking off. Even when we're off, we're still on. How can we reclaim our free time (planned or not) to truly rest and reset? The Dutch have it figured out: with niksen. Perhaps their best-kept lifestyle secret, niksen is the art of doing, well, nothing. It's the opposite of productivity, and it's incredibly good for your mind, body, creativity, and wallet (because it's free). If you're waiting for an invitation to go lie down in the sunshine, this book is it.
