The Book of Ichigo Ichie

I love this book. I read it and it's bewitched me ever since. I'm spellbound (Chris Evans, Radio 2).

"Ikigai" urges individuals to simplify their lives by pursuing what sparks joy for them (Marie Kondo).

Every moment in our life happens only once, and if we let it slip away, we lose it forever—an idea captured by the Japanese phrase "ichigo ichie." Often spoken in Japan when greeting someone or saying goodbye, it conveys that the encounter is unique and special. This concept is a tenet of Zen Buddhism and is attributed to a sixteenth-century master of the Japanese tea ceremony, or "ceremony of attention," whose intricate rituals compel us to focus on the present moment.

The Book of Ichigo-Ichie: The Art of Living of Making the Most of Every Moment, the Japanese Way is an inspirational work that shows us how to:

* Free ourselves from the past and the future and make each moment something unique.
* Bring into our lives the Zen that Steve Jobs learned from a Japanese master, which was key to his success.
* Turn coincidences into a tool for conscious magic.
* Create unforgettable moments in professional and personal circles.
* Improve our relationships with a new type of mindfulness.
* Open the floodgates to the flow of creativity whenever we need it.

The Book of Ichigo Ichie will help you find your ikigai.
