If you're fascinated by all things Japanese, you'll love this book. It’s an interesting little guide to making life more fulfilling, joyful and simpler - the Japanese way, of course.
You'll discover wabi-sabi, a core concept in traditional Japanese aesthetics that teaches us to embrace imperfection, impermanence, and the fact that we can’t control everything. And that’s perfectly fine - as long as we live in and cherish the moment, and avoid clutter (both in our minds and wardrobes).
You'll also learn about kaizen and why it’s the secret behind Toyota’s success as one of the world’s largest car manufacturers.
If you're looking for practical advice, the book is packed with traditional Japanese techniques to help you set and achieve goals, feel better and live a more satisfying life.
For those intrigued by the art of repairing broken pottery or the meaning of hanami, the book offers insights on how to apply these beautiful concepts to everyday life. And, of course, you’ll finally find out why Japanese farmers massage their cows and treat them to a daily glass of beer (yes, really!).
This book is filled with fascinating lessons from traditional Japanese culture, philosophy, and lifestyle. A delightful read - well worth your time!
