Introduction · · · · · ·
★A guide to emotional healing that has sold over 400,000 copies in Japan
Only those who have experienced many failures can sympathize with others. Negative emotions "come and go". Even if others disappoint me, it's no big deal. Although I am getting older, my heart should not grow old. The bleak past can also be "cooked" into delicious food. The more times you regret, the more honest you can become. Good times or bad times. Isn't it good to be "slow, slow, and clumsy"? When you are criticized, you can think like this. There is no need to rush to change yourself. Use less desire as a shovel and contentment as a hoe to cultivate the fields of your heart. Anything forced will never last. You can be lonely, but not isolated. You know the power of a person. Opportunities come in the form of crises. In fact, the way you are now is enough.
