À propos de cet audio

 This book invites you to cultivate stillness and contentment in an ever-changing, uncertain world, inspired by ancient and contemporary Japanese wisdom.

Drawing on a thousand years of Japanese literature, culture, and philosophical ideas to explore the true nature of time and what it means to be human, Kokoro–which mysteriously translates as "heart-mind"–is a meditation on living well.

Join Japanologist Beth Kempton on this life-changing pilgrimage far beyond the tourist trail, to uncover the soul of the country, its people, and its deeply buried wisdom.

Distilling insight from a rich variety of sources, from centuries-old poetry and ancient Zen texts to martial arts teaching and contemporary philosophy, alongside the real-life stories of modern day pioneers, Kokoro offers an inspiring take on what it truly means to be happy,so that you can live each day with wonder and ease.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“A masterpiece.”—Joey Hulin, author of Your Spiritual Almanac and Your Manifesting Year
“A remarkable book. I think about it all the time. It’s a stunning piece of writing and an extraordinary achievement.” —Dr. Ali Foxon, author of The Green Sketching Handbook
“Stunning”—Anna Mathur, Sunday Times bestselling author of Mind over Mother and Know Your Worth
“Perfect” —Michael Perry, author of Hortus Curious
“Reading Kokoro has helped put me in such a contemplative, open-hearted place. Just wow.“ —Hannah Nunn, author of Illuminate
"Powerful and moving"—Zoe Tucker, author of Greta and the Giants
"A beautiful and poignant call-to-action to make our own pilgrimage into the mountainous heartlands of life after loss, showing us what it means to live a full and joyful life in the face of impermanence. I feel enlarged by reading this. I read Kokoro at the perfect moment when I needed it the most; at a time when I am navigating my own midlife questions and grief. What a gift to the world this book is! Packed full of wisdom and insight from a culture that knows how to wrestle with the nature of impermanence, Kokoro connected me back with my own heartmind as I read it, whispering in the most comforting way that if this is it then I better stay in touch with what matters most. Beth is always such a compassionate and generous guide to what it means to live a fearless and creative life, and this book is no different. By walking us up sacred mountains, introducing us to the people she meets along the way, and by letting us into her own questions, we are about to see our own better, for which I am so grateful and inspired."—Ruth Allen, author of Grounded and Weathering
"Beth’s book seeps into your brain and magically changes it. You will find that some beautiful life changes emerge from reading it. You’ll be moved by Beth’s bravery and inspired by her rare travel adventures. I adore this book."—Lilla Rogers, author of I Just Like to Make Things

Disappointing and frustrating to hear someone putting herself (and her British background) on a high horse to judge Japanese philosophy while using demeaning terms (“indigenous” and “raw”) . The author goes over the loss of her friend Lisa and her mundane tasks several times through the book and keeps coming up with lists with “self questions”. The failed attempt to copy J.K. Rowling descriptive narrative is also clear on her made to believe stories (an imaginary taxi driver quotes her favorite author, guides her on her mountain hike and shares snacks with her in Japan where the cultural norm is to avoid these sort of interactions with foreigners or strangers). It should be clear that this is not about Japanese philosophy, but a biography/ self help tedious book.

This is a self biography, not really a philosophical book

The story is captivating and the narration is wonderful. It feels like a mediation. I was surprised of how much this book made me calm, relaxed and paused. It open something in me and allow me to really see what was around me. I listen to it on my drive to work each day and I realise how wonderful the landscape was. It felt like a pause is a busy day. Amazing!
The subject is deep, but never heavy. I highly recommend!

calm and deep
