About Event

Ikigai ('a reason for being') is a Japanese concept referring to something that gives a person a sense of purpose, a reason for living.

Join us on 28th Oct 2021, 7:30 pm as we show you How to Ikigai with Tim Tamashiro.

The goal of the event:

  • Naming your Ikigai, so that it gives responsibility and power to the gifts that you share with the world. Ikigai is an action that's unique to you - it's a combination of your 'half Ikigai' (what you love to do and what you are good at) and your 'full Ikigai' (how you share your gifts and how you are rewarded). You can name your Ikigai anything you want to – the key is that the name holds clarity of purpose for you.

Structure of the event:

  • General overview of Tim's personal Ikigai experience, his Ikigai is 'to delight'. (how he came to name his Ikigai and how it has affected his life),

  • Learn about the origins of Ikigai in Okinawa, Japan 🇯🇵 and how this way of life has benefited the people of the islands,

  • Interview with 3 guests about what they love to do and what they're good at. (Ikigai is like a boomerang: 🪃 when we do what we love to do and we are good at, the world sends back rewards in return)

  • Benefits of Ikigai lifestyleimproved work-life balance, greater purpose and enhanced well-being,

  • Science of positive psychology that supports the Ikigai lifestyle.

If you have any questions for Tim, please add them here.
