| Summary: | "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, or is it a state of laziness or boredom. To niks is to make a conscious choice to sit back, let go, and do nothing at all. Mecking shows readers how to take a break from all the busyness-- with heartfelt permission to do nothing. -- adapted from back cover |
