Japanese society is known to have a high philosophy and culture of discipline. But apart from that, they are also known to have a strong philosophy and life principles too. One of the well-known Japanese life philosophies is Ikigai. The word Ikigai comes from the words "iki" which means life, and "gai" which means value, so Ikigai can be interpreted as the reason we live, living life from the moment we wake up in the morning. Ikigai has 10 rules that can make life more meaningful and enjoyable. Read more about the rules of Ikigai that you can adopt and apply to your daily life.
1. Stay Active Don’t Retire
If someone gives up on what they love and do, they will usually lose their life goals or lose direction. That's why it is essential to do things that have value, make progress, create beauty, or create something that has a function many people need, helps, and shapes the circumstances around you.

2. Take It Slow
Do everything slowly but surely. Doing everything in a hurry is inversely proportional to a good quality of life. There is a saying, “Stroll and you will go far.” When we leave behind haste, life and time will become more meaningful.

4. Surround Yourself With Good People
Yes! Surround yourself with people who have positive and good vibrations. Having positive and good friendships is the best medicine. Instead of expressing your worries through pleasant chats with the people closest to you, it's better to share stories that will make your day brighter, get input, have fun, keep dreaming and making it happen, and live life optimistically.

7. Reconnect With Nature
Even though most people live in cities today, humans were created to be part of nature. We must often return to nature to recharge our minds and hearts. Visit the mountains or the beach as a holiday and healing destination. Or do fun outdoor activities, such as hiking, diving, snorkeling, or rafting. Of course, after healing, your mind will be fresher and more enthusiastic in carrying out daily activities.
