7. Make it a mindset

Ever feel like your brain has 70 tabs open at once? Well, it’s time to close them. Your wide-open schedule means you finally have a chance to clear your mind. The Dutch have a word for the art of simply doing nothing: Niksen.

Chances are, you were a member of the “cult of busyness” before all this kicked off. Now that many events and activities have been canceled and nobody’s busy anymore, it’s glaringly obvious how unhealthy “being busy for the sake of being busy” is. Relish in this opportunity to relax and savor the slower pace of life we all have now.
