Niksen: The Dutch Art of Doing Nothing by Annette Lavrijsen

5.0

my boyfriend bought me this book last week because, he knows I spend my time overthinking and overbooking myself for too many things which results in my stressing out. I use my free time to deep clean and keep myself busy from thinking about how stressed I am sometimes. I read this whole book in a day and it was delightful. The art was very aesthetically pleasing. I even grabbed my highlighters to mark the passages that stood out to me. I feel refreshed and it was a perfect book to start my 2022 with, as I believe I will start adding moments of niksen to my daily schedule to let myself breathe and do nothing and be okay with doing nothing. We need these moments of nothingness
