Description: 🌱 Get more videos & support my work: patreon.com/SimpleHappyZen Since reading about the concept of Wu Wei - the art of not forcing - a couple of years ago, I've always wanted to make a video about it. Well, today is the day. :) I think the lessons of the Eatern philosophy of Wu Wei can be valuable in so many aspects of our life. In my opinion, it also matches very well with minimalism, essentialism and intentional living. So let's see what we could learn from the art of letting things happen, and how it can be applied to how we go about our daily life. Lots of love, 🌼 Vera VIDEO CHAPTERS » Why I'm making this video 0:00 » What is Wu Wei? 1:27 » What Wu Wei is not 2:56 » An antidote to hustle culture 3:34 » Wu Wei and minimalism 4:11 » Applying Wu Wei in our life 5:44 » Controling life / Perfectionism 7:34 » Process over results 8:58 » Living in harmony with the way 10:15 » Final thoughts & Recommendations 10:55 Videos I used for research: » youtube.com/watch?v=g0rhN8U14dk&t=115s » youtube.com/watch?v=NvZi7ZV-SWI&t=1s » youtube.com/watch?v=aoJ6EJ7qu1k&t=119s FIRST TIME HERE?
