There is a Japanese proverb that says, "Being active makes you live a hundred years."
According to the Japanese, everyone has an "Ikigai": a reason to live. And according to the residents of the Japanese village with the world's longest-lived people, finding that "Ikigai" is the key to a happier, longer life. Having a strong sense of "Ikigai"—where passion, mission, vocation, and art intersect—means that every day is filled with meaning. It's the reason we get up in the morning, and it's also the reason many Japanese people never really retire (there's actually no word in the Japanese language that means retirement). They are always active and engaged in what they are interested in because they have found a real purpose in life: happiness means always being busy!
" Francesc Miralles" has interviewed the residents of the Japanese village - one of the world's blue areas - with the highest percentage of 100-year-olds researching this book. Ikigai reveals the secrets to their longevity and happiness: how to eat, move, work, how foster collaboration and social life, and—their secret—how they find the Ikigai that makes them happy. It becomes life. With this book, Frances Mirales provides practical tools to help you discover your Ikigai. Is there anyone who does not want to experience happiness every day?!
