About this listen

Find out how to live a long and happy life thanks to the ikigai miracle.

Japanese men's longevity ranks 4th in the world, while Japanese women's ranks 2nd. Perhaps this comes as no surprise when you know that the Japanese understanding of ikigai is embedded in daily life, careers, relationships, and hobbies.

Neuroscientist and bestselling Japanese writer Ken Mogi shares personal insight and scientific research to provide a colourful narrative of Japanese culture and history along the way.

He identifies five key pillars to ikigai:
1: Starting small
2: Releasing yourself
3: Harmony and sustainability
4: The joy of little things
5:Being in the here and now

Find fulfilment, joy and mindfulness in everything you do with the ikigai way.©2017 Ken Mogi (P)2017 Quercus Editions Limited

implementation

this books talks about snippets of Japanese people and their way of life and leaves the inference to reader on how to implement. some practical steps or process on how to implement them would have been helpful.
