Adopt the basic principles of Morita therapy
from Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life by Hector Garcia, Francesc Miralles
How to Apply This
-
Accept your feelings.
Your emotions are like the weather - we cannot control or predict them - we can only observe them. Next time you feel lonely, dare to sit with your solitude and ask yourself where it comes from. -
Do what you should be doing.
Morita therapy focuses on actions and activities rather than mindful practices. Focus on your daily to-do list, and recovery will come on its own. -
Discover your life’s purpose.
By accepting your feelings and focusing on your daily actions, you will find your ikigai or your life’s purpose.
