A few days back, I was reading an international bestseller book. IKIGAI, a wonderful book that makes its reader stunning and speechless. In addition, this book is a combination of advice and tools for transforming your life. Also, it keeps a view on how to live longer, the major. Just like Queen Elizabeth who is wonderfully maintaining her 90s.
To be honest, I never felt at ease with life and time is always seen running out. Yet, you don’t know the real meaning of life. According to IKIGAI, life isn’t short but we make it short.
According to this book, Japanese people living in Okinawa are especially live longer. The reason for their long life expectancy is hidden in the meaning of IKIGAI. IKIGAI is the word that literally means ” the purpose of life”. So, the people living in Japan have a special sort of amendment in their meaning of life. With their defined purpose of life, they have no word of being retired from work-life for good. In their nineties, if they aren’t a victim of any acute illness. They have no issue waking up at 5:30 and go to the fields.
SPECIAL WAYS THAT HELPS IN INCREASING LIFE EXPECTANCY
- According to the long-living islands and countries, the basic factor is a healthy diet. Their healthy diet is minimal and simplest as a whole. they eat less but eat more vegetables and fruits. Meantime, these simplest diets help them stay fit and stay away from inflammatory diseases and cancer.
- Their routine is so classical and busy, they don’t consider resting a part of their lives. They kept themselves busy at work all the time. Also, they never retire from work even in the nineties.
- Basically, in eating, they follow the 80/20 rule. Japanese eat on a small plate compared to the west. For example, they would have 5 dish meal in which there a 4 very small plates and one slightly bigger one. In short, after a Japanese meal, you will feel a little hungry.
