Ikigai

Discover the essence of living a long and joyful life through the globally acclaimed guide to ikigai, often described as 'a refreshingly simple recipe for happiness' by Stylist Magazine. In Japanese culture, it's believed that each individual possesses an ikigai—a unique reason that motivates them to rise each morning. Especially on the island of Okinawa, home to some of the world’s longest-living people, this concept is seen as vital to achieving a rich and extended lifespan. This inspiring and reassuring book equips you with transformative approaches to discovering your unique ikigai. It guides you in stepping away from the rush of everyday life, helps you find your true purpose, encourages you to cultivate meaningful relationships, and immerses you in your passions. Let ikigai infuse your daily life with purpose and happiness. As Neil Pasricha, the bestselling author of The Happiness Equation, describes, "Ikigai delicately reveals straightforward secrets we all can embrace to lead long, meaningful, and joyful lives. Its science-based insights are seamlessly integrated into honest conversations that will keep you engaged. Warm, patient, and kind, this book invites you along your journey in a gentle manner, rather than pushing you forward."
