Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long & Happy Life | F. Miralles & H. Garcia | Summary | Audio book

The Japanese believe that everyone has an ikigai, or reason for existing. Finding it is the secret to a better and longer life, according to the inhabitants of the Japanese town with the world's longest-living population. Each day is filled with significance when you have a strong sense of ikigai, where what you enjoy, what you're good at, what you can get compensated for, and what the world needs all coincide. We wake up in the morning for it. Because they have discovered a true purpose in life-the delight of constantly being active-many Japanese never truly retire (in fact, there is no word in Japanese that denotes retirement in the sense it does in English).
The inhabitants of the Japanese village-one of the world's Blue Zones-with the greatest proportion of 100-year-olds were questioned by the authors during their research for this book. Their best-kept secret is how they discover the ikigai that makes their life satisfying. Ikigai discloses the keys to their longevity and happiness, including how they eat, move, work, promote community, and eat. Also, it offers helpful resources to aid in the discovery of your personal ikigai. Who among us doesn't wish to be happy every day?
