Det som gör livet värt att leva, som får dig att gå upp på morgonen, det är ditt ikigai. Det begreppet och hur man uppnår det står i centrum i den här internationella succéboken. Författarna har rest till Ogimi, den by på japanska Okinawa som har flest hundraåringar i världen, och studerat deras livsstil. De har närmat sig den från olika håll, tittat på kost, motion, yrkesutövning och relationer, men i centrum för allt står ikigai: Ett slags gemensam punkt för det du älskar, är bra på, tjänar dina pengar på och som världen behöver. Där ens passion, profession och mission möts.De åtta kapitlen går steg för steg igenom varför människorna på Okinawa lyckas bli så gamla, hur de lyckas vara så lyckliga upp i hög ålder - och hur de två hänger ihop. Det handlar om mat, om spänstighet, att de håller sig i rörelse och aldrig pensioneras, om grupptillhörighet och solidaritet. Det handlar om ikigai.Den avslutande epilogen summerar de 10 reglerna för ikigai:1. Håll dig aktiv, pensionera dig inte2. Ta det lugnt3. Ät inte tills du är mätt4. Omge dig med goda vänner5. Håll dig i form6. Le7. Tillbringa tid i naturen8. Var tacksam9. Lev i nuet10. Följ din ikigai

In The Ikigai Journey, authors Hector Garcia and Francesc Miralles take their international bestseller Ikigai: the Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life a step further by showing you how to find your own ikigai through practical exercises, such as employing new habits and stepping outside your comfort zone.Ikigai is the place where our passion (what we love), mission (what we hope to contribute), vocation (the gifts we have to offer the world) and profession (how our passions and talents can become a livelihood) converge, giving us a personal sense of meaning. This book helps you bring together all of these elements so that you can enjoy a balanced life.Our ikigai is very similar to change: it is a constant that transforms depending on which phase of life we are in. Our "reason for being" is not the same at 15 as it is at 70. Through three sections, this book helps you to accept and embrace that—acting as a tool to revolutionize your future by helping you to understand the past, so you can enjoy your present.Section 1: Journey Through the Future: Tokyo (a symbol of modernity and innovation)Section 2: Journey Through the Past: Kyoto (an ancient capital moored in tradition)Section 3: Journey Through the Present: Ise (an ancient shrine that is destroyed and rebuilt every twenty years)Japan has one of the longest life spans in the world, and the greatest number of centenarians—many of whom cite their strong sense of ikigai as the basis for their happiness and longevity. Unlike many "self-care" practices, which require setting aside time in an increasingly busy world, the ikigai method helps you find peace and fulfillment in your busy life.

INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • 2 MILLION+ COPIES SOLD WORLDWIDE“Workers looking for more fulfilling positions should start by identifying their ikigai.” ―Business Insider “One of the unintended—yet positive—consequences of the [pandemic] is that it is forcing people to reevaluate their jobs, careers, and lives. Use this time wisely, find your personal ikigai, and live your best life.” ―ForbesFind your ikigai (pronounced ee-key-guy) to live longer and bring more meaning and joy to all your days.“Only staying active will make you want to live a hundred years.” —Japanese proverb According to the Japanese, everyone has an ikigai—a reason for living. And according to the residents of the Japanese village with the world’s longest-living people, finding it is the key to a happier and longer life. Having a strong sense of ikigai—where what you love, what you’re good at, what you can get paid for, and what the world needs all overlap—means that each day is infused with meaning. It’s the reason we get up in the morning. It’s also the reason many Japanese never really retire (in fact there’s no word in Japanese that means retire in the sense it does in English): They remain active and work at what they enjoy, because they’ve found a real purpose in life—the happiness of always being busy. In researching this book, the authors interviewed the residents of the Japanese village with the highest percentage of 100-year-olds—one of the world’s Blue Zones. Ikigai reveals the secrets to their longevity and happiness: how they eat, how they move, how they work, how they foster collaboration and community, and—their best-kept secret—how they find the ikigai that brings satisfaction to their lives. And it provides practical tools to help you discover your own ikigai. Because who doesn’t want to find happiness in every day?

Shinrin Yoku: "taking in the forest atmosphere," the medicine of simply being in the forest, "forest bathing."This book offers guidelines for finding peace and replenishment in any space —from turning off your phone to seeking the irregularities in nature, which in turn can make us less critical of ourselves. It offers tips not only on being fully present and mindful while in the forest, but also on how to tap into that mindfulness at home—even if home is the busiest and most crowded of cities.Forest Bathing explains the traditional Japanese concepts that help readers understand and share in the benefits of the Japanese approach to forest bathing—a cornerstone of healing and health care in Japan. These concepts include:Yugen: Our living experience of the world around us that is so profound as to be beyond expressionKomorebi: The interplay of leaves and sunlightWabi sabi: Rejoicing in imperfection and impermanenceFrom the healing properties of phytoncides (self-protective compounds emitted by plants) to the ways we can benefit from what forest spaces can teach us, this book discusses the history, science and philosophy behind this age-old therapeutic practice. Examples from the ancient Celts to Henry David Thoreau remind us of the ties between humankind and the natural world—ties that have become more and more elusive to Westerners.
