About this title

Synopsis

Discover your sense of purpose, foster gratitude and learn to live in the moment. A beautiful celebration of ancient Japanese culture.

Some of the most important mindsets in modern culture are derived from ancient Japanese times. From discovering your sense of purpose with Ikigai to fostering gratitude with Go-en, and from accepting what cannot be changed with Sho-ga-nai to embracing strength after you fall with Nana korobi ya oki, as well as the seven principles of the warrior code: these are timeless philosophies to live by.

Wellness coach Saori Okada brings together 60 quintessential lessons and philosophies, paired with stunning traditional artworks to match each concept, all rooted in Japan’s ancient heritage. These are lessons to change your mindset and give you the tools to take on life’s everyday challenges.

About the Author

Saori Okada describes herself as having a New Yorker’s mind with a Japanese soul. Her mission is to empower people’s holistic wellbeing by simplifying wellness, decluttering people’s lifestyles and sharing her cultural wisdom. Raised in a family of healthcare professionals, her passion for wellness deepened after overcoming ‘an unhealthy obsession to be healthy’, when she realized health goes beyond the body.

Saori is a Certified Transformation Nutrition Coach (CTNC), having trained at the Institute of Transformational Nutrition in the US, and blends her Japanese upbringing with her professional experience to lead Mogami Ltd – a London-based wellness company rooted in five core Japanese principles for longevity and balanced living. She also holds a BSc in Commerce from the University of Virginia and previously spent over seven years in marketing and media analytics in NYC and Toronto.
