By

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.

'Ikigai urges individuals to simplify 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 used 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.

From this age-old concept comes a new kind of mindfulness. In The


Book of Ichigo Ichie, you will learn to use all five senses to anchor
yourself in the present.

Every one of us contains a key that can open the door to attention,
harmony with others, and love of life. And that key is ichigo ichie.
