Ikigai, which roughly translates as "reason for being," offers a holistic view of life. Finding a balance between one's values, goals, and profession, primarily contributing to happiness and fulfilling one's needs, is in itself encouraging.

Balance also promotes a more satisfying lifespan and quality of life. Ikigai helps to better achieve what a person enjoys doing, leading to a more goal-oriented life.

3. Hara Hachi Buu

Okinawans in Japan adhere to the teachings of Hara Hachi Bu, which recommend eating until 80% full. In order to reduce overeating and associated health risks, such as obesity and diabetes.

This practice promotes awareness and moderation. When trying to apply this method, you should pay attention to signs of satiety and hunger. Eat carefully and stop when you feel full, not full.
