Notes from Session with the Authors of Ikigai: Francesc Miralles and Hector Garcia

Ikigai, the Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life is an International Bestseller. Ikigai means “a reason for being”. The purpose of the book is to find your own Ikigai. On April 24, 2020, I attended a live webinar with the authors of this inspiring and comforting book courtesy Millennium Mams’. Sharing my notes from the session:

 

• What is Ikigai?
• Doing something you love doing is all about Ikigai. You are connected to your Ikigai when from morning to evening you do something and enjoy doing it. It makes you feel good. It’s an indication about what’s inside you. Find Ikigai in new situations.
• Francesc says that after 4-5 years you will have nostalgia about these times, so take advantage now. He advises taking this time as a spiritual retreat because we have so much time now, which we won’t get afterwards.
