Our Review of Ikigai
"The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life" is an insightful exploration of the Japanese concept of "ikigai," which translates to finding purpose and meaning in life.
The book explores the profound idea that discovering your ikigai can lead to a more fulfilling and joyful life by carefully balancing four elements: what you love, what you’re good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for.
‘Ikigai’ explores what it means to have a purpose or meaning in life, drawing on relevant research in psychology, spirituality, and philosophy and commentary from lived experiences.
The authors, Héctor García and Francesc Miralles travel to Okinawa, Japan, to discover the secret behind the residents’ longevity. There, they find a way of communal living filled with purpose, happiness, and good health, which they share alongside interviews with the Okinawans and practical tips for a good life.
Through practical advice and real-life examples from Japanese culture, mainly derived from the long-living residents of Okinawa, the authors offer a deep understanding of how ikigai encourages individuals to slow down, cherish small things, and live intentionally.
This thought-provoking and inspiring read serves as a guide to help you reflect on your life's purpose and how to align it with your daily actions.
