Niksen is an art which of I've never heard of before. I know personally I could not do it. Not because I feel like I can't accomplish it. Not because I'm too "busy". But because I like keeping busy. Keeping busy keeps me sane. I know the book says it is for everyone but that is not true for some.

The author however did introduce the very interesting topic and I think it is interesting how I never hear about it until now. The author brings each topic and subtopic out in a very smooth way and there is not a whole lo of word traffic associated with it. She brings her own experience out of it rather than JUST teach what Niksen is.

I am fascinated by Niksen the
Dutch art of doing nothing.Literally doing nothing taking time to sit relax not worry about work cooking cleaning just sit.The author shows us why the Dutch people are happy take things in stride.I really enjoyed reading about this technique the author writes in a conversational style like one of your girlfriends sharing her life issues her coping skills with you.I willbe trying to incorporate Niksen in my life and as someone born in New York where we never stop moving I’m looking forward to moments of doing nothing.#netgalley#houghtinmiflen
