About the Books. Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life introduced millions of readers worldwide to the idea that everyone has an ikigai - a reason to get up each morning. Drawing on research from Japan's famously long-lived communities, the authors show how a strong sense of purpose, balanced with meaningful work, community and daily habits, is closely linked to longevity and wellbeing. The book guides readers through reflecting on their own skills, interests, desires and history to uncover what makes each day worth living.. The Ikigai Journey takes those ideas further, moving from theory into action. Garcia and Miralles set out practical exercises designed to help readers build new habits, step outside their comfort zone and integrate small, sustainable routines into daily life. The book focuses on bringing together passion, mission, vocation and profession - the four elements that, according to the ikigai framework, combine to create a balanced and fulfilling existence. Together, these two hardback titles form a complete toolkit: one book explains the philosophy behind ikigai, while the other equips readers with concrete steps to apply it. Whether read individually or as a pair, they offer an accessible, research-informed route into Japanese wellbeing culture, making this collection a popular choice for self-improvement readers and gift-buyers alike..
