The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life
"The Japanese concept of finding your reason for being — and the habits of Okinawa's centenarians who live by it."
Okinawa has one of the highest concentrations of centenarians on earth. Authors García and Miralles traveled to interview them and uncover the secrets of their longevity and happiness. The answer centered on ikigai — the reason you get out of bed in the morning. This book combines those interviews with research on flow, mindfulness, and resilience to give readers a framework for living with purpose and joy. Short, beautiful, and genuinely life-reorienting.
