It’s time for some Dutch wisdom: find out when, how and why to do nothing with niksen, the Dutch ‘be idle’ philosophy that is taking the world by storm. Niksen literally means to do nothing, but it's not the same thing as boredom or laziness. Niksen helps to free you from the daily grind of work, family demands and social pressure, to destress and just… stop. In this book, Dutch mindfulness expert Annette Lavrijsen shows you how, through daily practice, and by following the exercises within, you will grow comfortable with yourself, with silence and will reap niksen’s countless rewards. Using this book to cultivate niksen you can:Find new ways to relax, slow down and combat burnoutBust I’m-too-busy, nothingness-is-laziness mythsHonestly communicate boundaries and reset your prioritiesCreate a zen sanctuary that’s all yoursMaster the work-life balanceBoost your creativity, mood and even productivityRaise a happy family and be a better friendNiksen is about the enjoyment of life’s little pauses.

But with some sensible scheduling and a smart mindset it’s easy to fit into your day, and soon will become your essential daily pick-me-up. Stop worrying about you have to do next or over analysing every thought. Instead, use your timeout to let your mind recuperate and take a moment to yourself.Turn to this niksen manual whenever you want to declutter your mind.

Callings: Finding and Following an Authentic Life
Gregg Levoy - 1997
A calling may be to do something (change careers, go back to school, have a child) or to be something (more creative, less judgmental, more loving). While honoring a calling's essential mystery, this book also guides readers to ask and answer the fundamental questions that arise from any calling: How do we recognize it? How do we distinguish the true call from the siren song? How do we handle our resistance to a call? What happens when we say yes? What happens when we say no?Drawing on the hard-won wisdom and powerful stories of people who have followed their own calls, Gregg Levoy shows us the many ways to translate a calling into action. In a style that is poetic, exuberant, and keenly insightful, he presents an illuminating and ultimately practical inquiry into how we listen and respond to our calls, whether at work or at home, in our relationships or in service. Callings is a compassionate guide to discovering your own callings and negotiating the tight passages to personal power and authenticity.
