    “Book Descriptions: Discover the Japanese philosophies for living a happier, more balanced life in this beautifully illustrated guide.

    With the longest healthy life spans in the world, Japanese people understand the art of living well. This beautiful book distills traditional Japanese philosophies intrinsic to the culture of wellbeing and provides easy-to-follow exercises for those who want to incorporate these ideas into their daily lives.

    With sections on kokoro (heart and mind) and karada (body), plus a guide on how to form and nurture good habits, the book includes entries on ikigai (living with purpose), wabi-sabi (the beauty of imperfection and impermanence), shinrinyoku (forest bathing), ikebana (the art of flower arranging), and much more.

    Richly illustrated, A Little Book of Japanese Contentments is a warm invitation to cultivate contentment in everyday life.”
