Whereas mindfulness is about being present in the moment, niksen is more about carving out time to just be, letting your mind wander wherever it wants to go. And as we&#8217;re slowly recovering after the pandemic, it&#8217;s important to rethink the way we work and spend our time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"sc-3b9d5c14-0 ggqrYQ\" data-component=\"text-block\">\n<div class=\"sc-3f09e93e-0 jEuWqM\">\n<div class=\"sc-b6a785f9-0 dLyDao\">\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS\">Linguistically, niksen (doing nothing) is a verb created from &#8220;<i id=\"niks\" class=\"sc-d16436d-0 fhKUCU\">niks<\/i>&#8220;, which means &#8220;nothing&#8221;.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"sc-3b9d5c14-0 ggqrYQ\" data-component=\"text-block\">\n<div class=\"sc-3f09e93e-0 jEuWqM\">\n<div class=\"sc-b6a785f9-0 dLyDao\">\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS\">&#8220;It fits with the tendency of the Dutch language to create verbs out of nouns.

Essentially, it&#8217;s much less work to say &#8220;niksen&#8221; instead of &#8220;to do nothing&#8221;. &#8220;The Dutch are\u00a0<a class=\"sc-f9178328-0 bGFWdi\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/reel\/video\/p0dvts1j\/what-s-the-truth-behind-dutch-directness-\" target=\"_self\">a practical, direct people<\/a> and their language reflects that,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"sc-3b9d5c14-0 ggqrYQ\" data-component=\"text-block\">\n<div class=\"sc-3f09e93e-0 jEuWqM\">\n<div class=\"sc-b6a785f9-0 dLyDao\">\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 hxuGS\">In the Netherlands, the word can be used in a variety of ways, both positive and negative.
