任务型阅读 What is niksen? In Dutch, "niksen" literally means "to do nothing". Niksen used to have negative associations of laziness. The world today is more connected and faster. Niksen is allowing ourselves to take time out and consciously switch off, without feeling guilty. It enables you to prioritise (优先) yourself and what you need. Often we think we're busy, but who can't take a half-hour break? Niksen brings the same benefits as mindfulness in terms of mental health, sleep, creativity and enhanced focus. It helps the body and brain recover. Describe some easy ways people can embrace doing nothing? It might feel awkward at first. Do a relaxation exercise and let your mind wander. There's a Dutch verb, uitwaaien, to "go out in the wind". Go out and watch clouds — lie on your back and make up stories. People-watch. Indoors, choose a nice space and make it your own — make it comfortable, add some flowers, sit by the window and watch the day go by. How can people ensure that niksen becomes a regular and fulfilling part of their life? It should be a mindset. Schedule time and give yourself permission to do nothing. Start small — five minutes, ten, half an hour a day, up to a few hours at the weekend. Repeat to yourself, "It's a good thing to do nothing," and practise saying, "no, another time," when you're busy and somebody asks for your help. A. It refreshes the mind. B. How can niksen help people? C. How did you become an expert in it? D. Do one thing a day for the purpose of it. E. I write about mindfulness and psychology. F. But it's been reinterpreted as a positive practice. G. Single-focus crafts such as knitting or sewing can be a helpful first step. 答案：【1】F【2】B【3】A【4】G【5】D
