Good Nature: The pleasure of doing nothing

Sometimes, it’s hard to stop. We lead busy lives and between work and home and working from home, it’s easy to get swept up in the daily grind. 
 
So this is your how-to guide to doing nothing. Or, as the Dutch call it, Niksen. Whether you’re well-practiced in the art, or nothing-averse, consider this your permission slip to stop, take a moment to pause and breathe, as you let author Olga Mecking lead you through the pleasure of doing nothing.

If you want to feel hopeful about the future, just ask children what kind of world they would like to see. Their imagination knows no bounds, and their playful curiosity can be a refreshing change from the doom and gloom often foreseen by adults.  

For our SUPERFUTURES: What if…? podcast we will be tapping into that sense of wonder, exploring what it’s like to dream bigger and bolder for what lies ahead. Hosted by Natty Kasambala, we’ll be speaking with people who are tackling some of our greatest challenges in ways only children could have imagined, to make the world a better place for everyone.
