Discover "shibui" — the Japanese philosophy of finding the simple, subtle beauty that emerges with time. Through watercolor illustrations, personal stories, and mindfulness reflections, this book offers Eastern wisdom to help readers embrace healthy aging with joy and grace.

SHIBUI introduces readers to a transformative Japanese approach to aging that celebrates the subtle beauty, wisdom, and joy that emerge with time.

Through engaging personal essays, watercolor illustrations, and practical activities, Japanese-American author Sanae Ishida presents a refreshing alternative to Western anti-aging messages. Each chapter explores a different dimension of aging beautifully: beauty (bi), health (kenkou), purpose (mokuteki), wealth (tomi), connection (tsunagari), and approaching life's end (owari).

Readers will find:

Personal anecdotes that bridge Eastern and Western perspectives on aging
Gentle watercolor illustrations that bring Japanese concepts to life

Cultural insights into Japanese traditions that honor aging
Practical exercises and reflections to apply shibui principles to daily life
Simple activities to cultivate appreciation for life's later chapters

This beautifully designed gift book offers both wisdom and actionable ideas for anyone seeking to age with grace, purpose, and joy. Perfect for readers who enjoyed Ikigai, The Swedish Art of Aging Exuberantly, and The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning.
