Because non-action is often equated to laziness, it is for many among us an inaccessible, almost forbidden, and slightly shameful pastime.
The importance of so-called “doing nothing”—the time where one can legitimately have no practical goal—is usually underappreciated in social life. In fact, non-action can be an act of resistance and rejection of the status quo. Participants of this workshop can share their own experiences of non-action and think of what action and non-action mean and how we draw a line between them.
Prepare in advance:
Choose a place where you will practice non-action, tell people you live with to not disturb you, turn off the sound on your phone, create for yourself a space as comfortable as possible to be able to hear yourself and fully experience things that will happen to you.
