“Ikigai urges individuals to simplify their lives by pursuing what sparks joy for them…Much in the same way that The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up emphasizes ‘choosing what we want to keep, and not what we want to get rid of,’ [this book] demonstrates that aging could be an opportunity to keep working, keep smiling, keep active, and keep being social even as centenarians.” -KonMari Newsletter
“Want to live longer? Keep super busy. If hygge is the art of doing nothing, ikigai is the art of doing something-and doing it with supreme focus and joy…Pack up those cozy blankets and candles you purchased in last year’s hygge-fueled Ikea spree. Fall’s biggest imported lifestyle trend is ikigai, and it might help you live to 100.” -New York Post
