Learn to make every moment a once-in-a-lifetime experience with this definitive guide to the Japanese art of ichigo ichie, from the best-selling authors of Ikigai.

Every moment in our life happens only once, and if we let it slip away, we lose it forever - an idea captured by the Japanese phrase ichigo ichie. Often spoken in Japan when greeting someone or saying goodbye, to convey that the encounter is unique and special, it is a tenet of Zen Buddhism and is attributed to a 16th-century master of the Japanese tea ceremony, or 'ceremony of attention', whose intricate rituals compel us to focus on the present moment.

The Book of Ichigo-Ichie: The Art of Making the Most of Every Moment, the Japanese Way is an inspirational work which shows us how to:

• Free ourselves from the past and the future and to make each moment something unique.
• Bring into our lives the Zen that Steve Jobs learned from a Japanese master, and which was key to his success.
• Turn coincidences into a tool for conscious magic.
• Create unforgettable moments in professional and personal circles.
• Improve our relationships with a new type of mindfulness.
• Open the floodgates to the flow of creativity whenever we need it.

The Book of Ichigo Ichie will help you find your ikigai.
