Description

This beautiful guide unlocks the secrets of Japan's seasonal culture to help you relish the seasons wherever you are. In traditional Japanese culture, people eat, sleep and wear the seasons, from kimono motifs to petal-shaped sweets, and festivals dedicated to nature's spectacular displays.

Discover how to transform your life with the concepts of kisetsukan, a mindful celebration of nature that leads to a deep awareness of the seasons. Learn about Shun, eating what is fresh and bountiful, Mottainai, zero-waste living, and Kadō, the Way of Flowers, among other seasonal practices.

This treasure trove of folktales, recipes and activities invites you to celebrate each day, for increased creativity, harmony and happiness. With its unique blend of traditional wisdom and practical advice, this book is an inspiring invitation to connect with nature and find balance in your life.
