Category: Personal Development

Learn to make every moment a once-in-a-lifetime experience with this definitive guide to the Japanese art of ichigo ichie, from the bestselling authors of Ikigai. '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 simpli fy 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, to convey that the encounter is unique and special, it 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 which shows us how to: * Free ourselves from the past and the future and to make each moment something unique. * Bring into our lives the Zen that Steve Jobs learned from a Japanese master, and 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. ...Show more

Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life by Jordan B Peterson

$38.00 NZD

Available Stock:
1

Category: Personal Development

In 12 Rules for Life, public thinker and clinical psychologist Jordan B. Peterson offered an antidote to the chaos in our lives- eternal truths applied to modern anxieties. Now in this sequel, Peterson goes further, showing that part of life's meaning comes from reaching out into the domain beyond what we know, and adapting to an ever-transforming world. While an excess of chaos threatens us with uncertainty, an excess of order leads to a lack of curiosity and creative vitality. Beyond Order therefore calls on us to balance the two fundamental principles of reality - order and chaos -- and reveals the meaning that can be found on the path that divides them. In times of instability and suffering, Peterson reminds us that there are sources of strength on which we can all draw- insights borrowed from psychology, philosophy, and humanity's greatest myths and stories. Drawing on the hard-won truths of ancient wisdom, as well as deeply personal lessons from his own life and clinical practice, Peterson offers twelve new principles to guide readers towards a more courageous, truthful and meaningful life.   ...Show more
