Beschreibung
In her brand new book Marie Kondo, bestselling author of The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up, reveals the aspects of Japanese culture that are intrinsic to a lifestyle full of calm, wonder and beauty. Through six chapters - Cherish, Perfect, Consider, Harmonise, Purify, and Savour - we learn about the guiding principles that define the values that flow through the arts, rituals, and sensibilities of Japan, and by which Marie leads her life.
We discover why appreciating the beauty of sakura, cherry blossom, allows for a moment to deeply experience a season through a single entity (Cherish). In the traditional tea ceremony, we see the importance of kiwameru, the Japanese word for achieving mastery or perfection (Perfect). In umami, we taste how something simple and delicious can nourish the heart (Savour). We explore why the things left unsaid, ma, are just as important as the words we say (Harmonise). Above all, we learn how recognising these moments - the ones that bring happiness and fulfilment - can lead to a more satisfying and joyful life.
The beautiful hardback edition, which will includes foiling on the cover and illustrated pages, will make the perfect gift this autumn.

A love letter to Japan 🌸
Since I really enjoyed Marie Kondo's "The life-changing magic of tidying up" as well as her Netflix show I was really looking forward to this book! It's a love letter to Japan and she writes about all the big and small things that make Japan so unique and that inspired her Kon Marie Method of tidying up. You get to know Japanese culture a lot better and learn what makes her care for each item with such great care and gratitude. This book made me want to visit Japan again and dive deeper into it's fascinating culture! Also the hardcover copy has beautiful little illustrations at the beginning of each chapter - it would surely make a great gift for everyone who loves Japan 🌸
