Items related to Do Less Be More: Ban Busy and Make Space for What Matters
Synopsis
At a time when being idle is viewed negatively, and we are accustomed to filling every waking moment with (often useless or unpleasant) activity, The Do Nothing Effect explores why switching off, or at the very least, slowing down, is vital, if we are to live a life of fulfillment.
Drawing on the latest brain-function research, Susan and Martina highlight that merely thinking of an activity, rather than actually doing it, sees the brain in active mode. While cramming in one more task may feel useful, productive, or even satisfying, it’s not always the best use of an idle moment. In fact, it will inevitably lead us to a place where we become less productive, less creative, less inspired and less satisfied with life.
Filled with practical exercises and experiments, The Do Nothing Effect provides readers with a personalized set of tools to hone their ability to switch off, and find space for inspiration.
