  Hiding mistakes, concealing flaws, covering scars – keeping what is supposedly "bad" hidden from others has unfortunately become a given in our modern society. But it can be different: Kintsugi teaches us to see the positive in breaks and injuries, and this book shows you how to easily make that your new attitude toward life!Originally conceived as a craft to give broken porcelain a second life in renewed beauty, Kintsugi has long since become a philosophy as well. Just as carefully reassembled shards of a broken bowl form a breathtaking work of art with the help of gold particles, so too does a person become who they truly are through all their injuries and imperfections. The deep meaning of life through learning, awareness, and constant growth is perfectly captured by the Kintsugi philosophy, which you can apply very concretely in your own life. Discover the importance Kintsugi can have during difficult phases and major challenges, and explore how the Japanese mindset can bring you lasting satisfaction, gratitude, strength, and joy. Not particularly spiritual? No problem – the practical reflections, exercises, and thought-provoking ideas are suitable for everyday life and help even stressed city dwellers gradually reconnect with themselves and gain a completely new perspective on who they are.
