"Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life" explores the concept of ikigai, a Japanese philosophy that translates to "reason for being" or "purpose in life." In this insightful book, authors Héctor García and Francesc Miralles take readers on a journey to uncover the secrets of living a fulfilling and meaningful life.

Drawing from the wisdom of the residents of Ogimi, a village in Okinawa with one of the highest life expectancies in the world, the authors delve into the four pillars of ikigai: passion, mission, vocation, and profession. They offer practical guidance on how to discover and cultivate one's ikigai by exploring personal interests, values, and strengths.

"Ikigai" combines inspirational stories, scientific research, and practical exercises to help readers reflect on their lives, find purpose, and make positive changes. Through exploring the interconnectedness of passion, mission, vocation, and profession, the book provides valuable insights into achieving balance, finding joy in everyday activities, and living a life of purpose.

Whether you are seeking personal fulfillment, a sense of direction, or a deeper understanding of the Japanese philosophy of ikigai, this book offers valuable perspectives and practical tools to guide you on your journey towards a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
