Why Be Happy?
WHY BE HAPPY? is a beautiful, practical guide to finding happiness through ukeireru, the Japanese principle of acceptance.
This book offers a path to well-being and satisfaction for the anxious and exhausted, and anyone charmed by concepts such as hygge, ikigai, and wabi sabi.
Psychologist Scott Haas spends much of his time in Japan, and with this book he provides a host of delightful examples of the way he has been made welcome, accepted, and happy in this distant country, as well as many thought-provoking and practical lessons which you can apply.
Why Be Happy? will help make your world a happier place by discovering a place of contentment and peace amid the chaos of modern life.
