Introduction

Take a practical journey into the simple, yet powerful practice of Ikigai to unlock your purpose. Ikigai, a Japanese concept popularized by Hector Garcia and Francesc Miralles in their book "Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life," is a philosophical approach to finding one's purpose and fulfilment in life. The word "ikigai" combines the Japanese words "iki" (to live) and "gai" (value or worth), and refers to the intersection of four elements: what you love, what you are good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for. Finding one's ikigai is said to lead to a sense of fulfilment and happiness.

Garcia and Miralles argue that having a sense of purpose, whether it comes from one's work, relationships, or personal passions, is key to a fulfilling life. The authors use the example of the Japanese island of Okinawa, known for its high concentration of centenarians, to show that having a strong sense of ikigai can contribute to longevity. The book provides practical exercises and reflections to help readers discover their own ikigai and encourages readers to find joy in the simple things in life, cultivate positive relationships, and live in harmony with the environment.
