When you genuinely do nothing, only then can you truly do anything.
Stop moving forward.
Slow down and realize why you're moving.
Then move with balance.
Move for the fun of it.
Or, take a moment to just sit.
Learn the ancient paradoxical art of doing nothing, & become more effortlessly natural, authentic, mindful, & free in your relationships, work, & everyday life, only ever Now.
The Will to Do Nothing is popular among books on Zen Buddhism, Taoism, & spiritual self-help, but it is not about those things. Readers will explore the ancient art of stillness & find the unexpected key to inner peace, authenticity, & presence, found nowhere other than the present moment. Charles Freligh, a young dynamic author with a PhD in Clinical Psychology alongside expertise in mindfulness & meditation, offers a unique blend of ancient wisdom, contemporary insight, personal story, & scientific understanding, to help you connect with your true self & unlock the power of now that lives inside deep stillness. Think Alan Watts (The Wisdom of Insecurity) meets Parahamsa Yogananda (Autobiography of a Yogi) meets Carlos Castaneda (The Teachings of Don Juan).
In today's fast-paced world, we are bombarded with endless distractions & obligations that leave little time for honest introspection. Many of us struggle with feelings of overwhelm, stress, & disconnection from our true selves, leading to a sense of dis-ease & unrest. And we tend only to do more in an effort to fix our problems. But what if the secret to finding peace & authenticity lies in doing less... way less?
The Will to Do Nothing is the will it takes to let go of control and embrace the uncontrollable gift of right now, & the art of "doing nothing" is the book's central thread. In Taoism this art is called wu wei - not forcing. Readers will learn this art. They will learn to slow down, stop overthinking, let go of external attachments, & fully enter the present. Charles draws on wisdom from many spiritual traditions, as well as philosophy, psychology, & psychotherapy, to reveal the secrets of dissolving past & future worries, & connecting to something beyond oneself.
One of the most compelling aspects of the book is Charles' ability to blend science, spiritual wisdom, & story. As a trained psychologist & spiritual philosopher, he invites readers to embark on a journey of self-discovery. He draws on research from neuroscience, positive psychology, mindfulness, & meditation, and offers readers a well-rounded perspective on the benefits of deep stillness & silence, the benefits of "doing nothing."
Throughout the book, Charles shares personal anecdotes & insights that make the content relatable and accessible. He speaks from a place of vulnerability, for example, by sharing his own struggles with stillness & anxiety, & how he continues to overcome them. This approach creates a sense of intimacy between reader & author, & encourages the reader to explore & embrace their own vulnerability.
The Will to Do Nothing reminds the reader why life is truly worth living. It offers a transformative journey into the heart of pure presence, where readers can dissolve past & future worries, & discover a sense of universal harmony that is only available Now. Whether seeking peace of mind, calm, deeper authenticity, or a connection to something greater than oneself, this more-than-a coffee table book, more-than-a self help book, more-than-a mindfulness book, provides a roadmap to the essential truth of being human. Whether you're looking to gift this spirituality book to a loved one or keep it as a treasured possession, it's perfect for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of themselves & the world around them.

(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
